    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....

just a curious question

I recently bought a creamcicle and she is the most interesting snake I own, to date. I have a BP and a RTB but my curious question is about her.

She has started going up the side of her tank and literally hanging upside down on the screen lid. Now, if she was wedging herself in the corner with her tail holding her up from the bottom like normal I wouldn't be so questioning.. But she is seriously completely on the screen lid, her entire body in the middle, and moving along the lid upside down.. my question is this..

How in the blue blazes is she doing that?! :rofl:

I have never in my life seen something so funny, btw. If She does it again with the light on I will hunt down my ipod and get a video.

That's adorable! I have a climber too. Out of 5 snakes only the one loves to climb. Their belly scales help. They grip with them. When they climb up my arm it feels like little finger nails clinging to me.

How big is she? If she is a baby it's easy for her to get a grip. But as they get bigger they can't grip the screen top anymore. So if you have an adult doing that then I'm just as confused as you lol.
 
AS Ashley said, she is useing her belly scales to do that and the reason?? You said you got her recently? She is still looking for the way out! :D
 
She is an escape artist.. She escaped at the pet store we got her at earlier in the week and ended up in the hamster enclosure. Ate Momma and her 3 babies in one night, they found her the next morning.. she is probably a foot and a half to two feet long.. I'm not sure on her age.
 
just a note, we've had her since like 4-5 days before thanksgiving.. My post came out weird and looked like we got her earlier this week, what happened was the day before we came in and bought her, they found her in the hamster cage. Luckily, they are a mom and pop store and told us about the escape and we've prepared for it.
 
She sounds like a yearling or maybe a little younger. My yearling is a little over 2ft. My 2 year old is at 3ft exactly. But a creamscicle is a corn x rat snake hybrid and will be a little larger than the average corn.
