Hey just wanted to share some pictures I took of my kings today.

A few of them are ovulating and all of them are bashing around in their cages.

Poor planning and procrastination on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part...

Very pretty zonata. I like the big white bands. What is the substrate? It looks sort of like sand.

Is that calcium sand?

Yeah the white band are awesome!

Yep, it's sand. I changed over this season and cannot really see myself going back to wood chips. The wood mites suck; the old chips start to smell; mold is always a problem; humidity is hard to control; cleaning the cage sucks.

OK I obviously am in love with sand. But seriously if the change is not too nerve racking for you I strongly suggest changing. I have noticed better appetites in my snakes, better sheds and just nicer looking scales.

I actually had a zonata that had some infection in his mouth. Now that I have changed to sand AND dosed him with nutri-biotic he is doing perfectly well...after a good shed and brumation of course. haha He's the small one in the picture.

SAND SAND SAND lol

Oh, and it's quarts, course grade. There is NO dust and I just put the mice on deli cup lids so they don't ingest any sand.

You may have been trying to reply to someone else. I posted your pic that didn't show.
You left off a / at the end in the [img] box is all.

Ahh thank you very much. Someone asked if it was sand, so I was just replying to them.

Have a good day, even though it is Tuesday.
