Hi all!

I'm 26+2 and I'm really getting deep into what we need to buy to be ready for baby girl, especially since they said I'll have to deliver by 37wks due to high BP.

I have maaaany nieces and nephews and have helped consistently in their upbringing since birth but I've never done baby wearing with littles, only 4-6m and up ish. I know I'm going to want to start right away with my little girl, and I know the rigid types tend to not work as well on plus size bodies. For context I'm 5'10" and was 265 before getting pregnant. Now 280. Ive read a few posts about the sling or wrap styles being better. I'm almost certain I'm gonna hate the wrap style just due to ease of use. But I don't want to drop this kind of money on a sling style without some community research first lol

So! If you've used this brand or have any insight on styles like this, lmk!

Looking to re-home my 3.5ish year old male BP. Got him over a year ago and was told he was 2 at the time.

He's around 4ft and weighs 1148g as of tonight

He eats a small frozen thawed rat (about 50-60g but the weight varies) once every 3-4ish weeks depending on if shed happens near feeding because he will not eat at that time at all.

Otherwise, he's a good eater most of the time. We did have a couple months of refusal and we got him to eat again with a frozen thawed chick, which he did seem to enjoy.

I really do love having this snake but life has gotten wild and I don't feel like I'm providing him with nearly enough enrichment. He seems to like exploring and being handled for the most part and I haven't had the time to do that enough. I feel terrible as I haven't had him that long and, at the time of purchase, I absolutely intended on keeping him for a long time, and if he was a snake that didn't seem to like being out and exploring, I could justify it. But I don't feel like I'm doing him right and don't want to be selfish in keeping him.

He's in a bioactive tank, which might need a boost of cleanup bugs at this point.

Photos and snake plants are doing really well in the tank. He has a heat lamp (no light) on the right side and a UV light source on the left.

He used to have 3 hides but he NEVER went in the third one so I removed it and let the plants grow more which I think he enjoys. You can have the third one though if you want to change things around. His favorite hide is his half log, which I've placed against the side wall so there's only one opening. The top is lined with tin foil to keep temp regulated and has a silicone sheet on top of the center to weigh and help with temps. Not the prettiest but it works!

Whole setup includes:

4x2x2 tank.

water bowl.

Terracotta pot (to fill with water and bury in dirt to keep dirt moist).

Black hide with cork round hot glued to top

Half log hide.

Stacked stick climbing thing (rly dont know what this is called).

Stick secured to wall for climbing.

Climbing rings hung from top.

Mushroom decoration.

UV light

Heat lamp

Temp control thermostat

Extra hide

Extra hammock not installed

Enclosure shown in .5 and normal, both sides.

$100 for everything except the shelving the enclosure is on.

Hi there, our real estate team got together to take group photos but one of us couldn't be there! :(

I've asked her to take a couple sitting photos to see if we can add her to the group.

I've included the following

A group shot

Each of us sitting individually for reference/shoes/positioning/whatever you need

4 shots of her sitting in various places.

She's totally willing to take more shots if you think you'll need something else from her.

You have creative freedom as long as it looks like she's with us. Including changing the couch or background or whatever.

I also have the download codes for high quality photos if you want that please dm me.

Thanks in advance!
