    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

I have a baby normal and yearling cinnamon ball pythons with pretty bad constipation. Last winter the window in my reptile room got left open and the room basically froze. Half of my snakes lived including these two. I'm wondering if the accident caused the issue.

Have you checked your temps? Do they have access to clean water? Worst case scenario I would give them a long soak in warm water, that usually helps loosen things up. Sounds to me like a housing issue rather than the result of something that happened last year though.
 
I'm also curious, are you just using ambient temps or do you have UTH? You might consider looking into the belly heat, especially living somewhere with nasty winters where the ambient temps are harder to control.
 
I've been wanting to put belly heat on them for a long time. I was thinking the heat was the problem. I'm building a new rack with belly heat because the design of the current one just doesn't really allow it.
