    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Bad Guy Beware of Anemotor (Zared Hall)

I missed him posting those comments and have no clue what they said but it seriously couldn't be more obvious its him. Either he wanted us to know it was him or he's not the brightest bulb.

They were already deleted so I don't know what they said, but considering one of them had a name of "Ani Motor" (or whatever it was) immediately followed by a second one makes it pretty clear.
 
I been keeping emeralds for a. Long time and the best feeding sequence with them is.
Babies 7 to 10 days they often need to start on live hopper mice then best switched over
To rats of propped size ,usually smaller than the widest grit.
Juveniles 10 to 14 days again with smaller rats than what you would feed other snakes
Adults 14 to 21 days
Older snakes can eat once a month.

The key is to feed smaller, at longer intervals and to feed 3 meals then wait for defecation.

Feeding mice is OK, but ETBs should be on rats, they have no issues at all digesting them, not like GTPs as they they do better on mice. Rats are way more nutritious and that is needed for ETBs
Best to switch them on rats asap

Nothing wrong with feeding mice, but they will not gain weight and size as they should on a mice diet.

ETBs have a very slow metabolism, kept in colder temps , they will digest slowly. This is where the 3 meal rule is important, even warm showers after the last meal helps..

As for regurge issues, it Can be serious and one should wait at least 4-6 weeks before feeding again, and a way smaller meal should be offerd to give the snake a chance to rebuild the intestinal flora.

The seller obviously knows nothing about keeping these properly and is nothing more than a liar in it for a quick sale.

I have also seen the black markings on them before, it is caused by being kept in exo Terra's using a heat lamp without sealing of the screen top, almost as if the scales get dried up and sun burned. It takes multiple sheds and good humidity to recover, often 1-2 years to regain perfect body. So too dry conditions and too hot.. so since the seller is reading this , did I describe your set up ?? I think so...��

Best of luck to you op, at least the snake has someone who knows how to care for it now.
 
I've got him quarantined away from the rest of my collection. My friend is a vet so I'm going to take him in this weekend but I'm pretty sure I'll find out that it has some sort of parasites...I believe it to be WC. I should have went against my judgment - $250 seems too good to be true for a CB ETB. I'm 99% sure this is WC and I am confident Zared probably only owned it for a couple months max and realized that he couldn't take care of it properly and just dumped it on someone else.

After looking at the pictures, your male is definitely WC & I would probe it to make sure it is a male (after it is eating & has gained weight).

He has a number of ads here. There does not seem to be a way to place a link.

Hm … Spartanburg isn't far from me. I will post this in a few local groups.

So she's only eaten twice in 2 months? And he deems that eating extremely well? For someone who claims to know so much about the husbandry of emails he comes across as an amateur, at best.

My adults eat rats every 21-28 days.

I have no experience with regurgitation in ETBs and I've kept them for several years. I have had good experiences with WC specimens …
 
I beleive Zared is somebody I've heard of in the giant silkmoth breeding hobby and the only negative thing I've heard is he overcharges, but if people want to pay his prices that thier choice and if anything somebody overcharging helps other sellers, but I know people who've criticized him have also said the customers who've ordered from him always got what they ordered and were happy with it.
 
I have this one last thing to say,
You all can suck on my big black cock for all I care.
I sold my snake btw.
Fuck you all. Have a nice death all you pathetic cubes of what was once human beings.

Wow, Bon Voyage!
