Just how quick is @grey_rider_reptiles shed testing results??
.โฌ๏ธโฌ๏ธ
The answer: very quick!
We got some great shells from two of our snakes and were hoping to find that both are double het for Hypo and Clown. The results were great and a huge thank you Charlie for great service and a great turn around of the results!!
Daily reminder of the importance of reptile disease transmission prevention protocols.
(This oneโs all in good fun. Jessica gave me permission to โroastโ her publicly, lol)

All seven babies out and looking great!! ๐
Probably a little male heavy with all the ๐ but there are some really cool things going on with the het piebald on some of these guys!
Pairing was Banana Piebald x GHI Mojave Hypo
Next step is letting them shed out and then starting with feeding and establishing these beauts.

Cody, our backyard seasonal resident here at The Ophidiarium ๐ธ
Started hearing him last night in the back yard and when I heard him tonight he sounded really close to the house, so I went on a search following the unique chirp that they have. Didnโt take too long to locate him.
Always look forward to seeing these grey tree frogs showing up each spring and keeping tabs on the throughout the summer ๐ค๐ผ โ๏ธ

Donโt procrastinate like meโฆ otherwise youโll have to build your own hatchling rack like I do here!
Just a few building/design tips I figured Iโd share as I started this build. ๐ค๐ผ๐

Mr. Aquila, our male western papuan carpet python, Morelia spilota variegate, just shed out last night โจ(first shed since warming back up and getting back on food).
Will he be getting down to business?? ๐ค๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
And looking at his shed skin here, there are two rather distinct pieces of skin ๐ง that would lead me to believe, without a doubt, that he is indeed a dude. ๐ค๐ผ

I think we all can do a better job at times of not pointing fingers and try to give people room to have a different opinion. ๐ค
#reptiles #blamegame
Water change today. ๐ฆ
Figured Iโd capture a bit of the process we go through here @the.ophidiarium and give some behind the scenes of some of the husbandry that is required for keeping and breeding snakes. Also a peek at our Papuan carpets that have been cooling since Thanksgiving. No confirmed locks yet, and Iโm not sure if they are going to go all the way this year, but at minimum itโll hopefully get them into the cycle of cooling, breeding, and warming back up for next year ๐ค๐ผ
