Just wanted to share one of many reasons why my username is what it is :D

My 2nd favorite pet snake, Oligodon ancorus, that i named Genghis.

Having his momentary sunbath (they rarely if not never bask, so it was absolutely unnecessary lol)






Having his weekly favorite dish, raw egg yolks :D



In case your wondering, despite his small size and the thick calluses on your hand, they can inflict a very nasty bite due to their specialized teeth used to slit open eggshells :)

15-20 minutes depending on his craving.

You betcha. But i recently mixed up some substrate made of diatomaceous earth, crushed charcoal, perlite, laterite, sand, coco fiber and osmunda fiber. Works wonders. No ants, no smell, quick dry
