Setting Up 11 New Snake Enclosures! (+ Rat Update)

[@taylorndean]

i'm sorry if the audio during the enclosure tours has slight volume changes at certain parts, i tried to fix it as much as possible, but depending on my position while recording into the microphone some words fluctuated in volume. it was for some reason really difficult to fix?? the end result was some areas being a little quieter than others. thank u sm for checking it out tho it means a bunch :') i hope you're all doing well

Hello there miss

[@srishtigaming6]

"Hey howdy hey welcome back to the dayyyy" *Crickets chirping* This line is stuck in my head almost 5 days a week.

[@cdetuhbbdrgfdc]

I've been coming back to her channel since she was posting the feeding videos and I love checking up on her to see what she's done and posted. So proud of her for getting help for her addiction and her past relationships.

[@victorianvampstudios]

My ball python absolutely LOVED hanging out in hammocks, lol! He kept pulling the reptile hammocks off the sides of his tank so eventually after looking around for different ideas of what to do for him, I got him a hammock meant for ferrets. It had this fluffy/furry lining in it, and he would always come up and out to use it when his day lights came on and warmed it up for him. It stuck out from the rest of his more naturalistic terrarium, but after seeing how much he liked it I couldn't rationalize taking it away lol And yes, in case anyone gets all annoyed or anything, he *did* have other appropriate hides/water dishes/substrate/heat and light sources, cycles/enrichment/etc. He just also had an absolutely ridiculous hammock.

[@xoxorosequartz]

i have this bright pink hide in my leos (tupperware) mostly bioactive and naturalistic enclosure. she just loves it so much lol

[@andreil1313]

I’ll absolutely want to put a hammock in my next enclosure 😍 When I move out I’ll re-do the enclosure of my snake ~

[@reptilequeen4720]

I recently got a ball python I may want to try this but he is super shy so idk how he will react may not react at all 😂

[@LilithHatesItHere]

I have the same bridges for my BP, and he LOVES climbing on them! Love that you’re showing that BPs don’t just sit and do nothing their whole lives. The bird perched are a super good idea too, I’ll have to try those out next. They’ll definitely take advantage of any enrichment you put in their enclosures :)

[@greenpeacetea8498]

Your videos got me through such a hard time and I'm not even kidding. I was really depressed in 6th grade and conveniently found your channel because I really wanted and still want a snake. When I felt alone your videos got me through it. I love you so much and I'm always cheering you on and praying for you 💛💛💛. Keep up the good work :D

My daughter showed me your page over a year ago and I instantly knew I wanted to watch you bc you talked so openly about addiction/recovery and I immediately wanted to watch more. I want to congratulate you on your sobriety and you seem so happy now. I connected I'm sure bc of my sobriety as well. Just knowing another person that's been through the same thing and still has struggles bc "that's completely normal" but it makes me and I'm sure allt of other people feel not alone and I appreciate that fact and to also let addicts know it's 100 percent possible for sobriety if that's what 'you're want!! I'm 3 years clean January and thankful and still taking one day at a time. I know this video isn't about sobriety but I just wanted to tell you how I appreciate you and I think you're awesome. I love all your furries and reptiles too😂😍😍😍

I'm really sorry about your rats, at least you gave them so much love and attention they wouldn't have without you. I'm also in a similar situation to you as I'm recovering from a mental breakdown and while I'm living mostly independently, it's such a struggle with feeling like you're not where you should be in life. I turn 25 next year and am freaking out about that as I feel like I should be working or doing something important rather than just sitting around and trying to recover. It's still hard even though you know that focusing on recovery is important and you shouldn't beat yourself up about not being what you expected to be but it's difficult. Regardless, try to not beat yourself up too much and take as much time as you need to heal and I'll be doing the same ☺️
