Hey fellow cult members. I totally thought the everybody scream scarf from online was going to be for sale at the show. I didn’t buy one online when they were available because I knew I was going to the show in Seattle and wanted to buy it at the event and have it be special for that day. I guess I should have researched first what was actually for sale ugh. If anyone bought an extra or wants to sell theirs I would love to buy it from you!

I’m also bummed I forgot to buy a bat fan too, damn adhd and getting side tracked.

Hey Reddit, I have two ball pythons. One I raised from a baby who’s doing amazing the other we adopted from a guy who’s son joined the military and left his snake behind with his dad. We believe he’s about 10-12 years old and we have had him for the last 6. In all that time he’s been completely fine. A little standoff ish and not the most friendly but always been content. He’s been on a hunger strike for the last 3 almost 4 months now and I’m getting worried and am at a loss of what to do. There has been no change to his husbandry, he’s in the same tank with the same type of substrate, heat lamp, heat pad, hides, all the same and yet he seems very perturbed. He glass surfs all the time, before a few months ago he hardly came out of his hide. I’ve checked the heat pad and lamp and they’re functioning normally. His humidity is good and I fog about once a week. He has clean water, I check regularly for poop (which he hasn’t eaten so there’s been none) and of course he has a warm and cool side. The only thing I can possibly think of is our supplier for rats closed and so we have had to find another one but i don’t see how that would matter to him? We’ve tried frozen thawed as well as live which is what both snakes have been used too and nothing. I can’t get him to settle and he’s obviously stressed out about something. I’ve taken to putting a towel over his tank so he’s in the dark more and that’s helped when he won’t stop glass surfing a bit, but still not wanting to eat. I know balls are notorious for hunger strikes but he’s starting to get thin and I’m getting worried and cannot figure out what is wrong. My temps and humidity are what they’re supposed to be, I use cocohusk as substrate and replace it about once a month.

I would be so grateful for any insight or ideas you might have to help. Thanks Reddit.
