Pursey is back!!!!

[Laki]

Glad you found Pursey!! I'd have died if my snake got out, scared that if anything was moved out of place, he'd get squat! lol

I watched a video on YT today of a giant snake eating an alligator. Yep. It was insane!

Pursey is looking a little dehydrated. But a very pretty snake!

I'm glad you found him and he's okay. I'm not much for snakes, either but if I get that job at Petsmart I'll get a chance to learn how to handle them properly.

How to tell, visually, if a snake is dehydrated.....

Wrinkling skin around the neck and scales that bristle more then normal. Hognose are always a little bristly, but his scales should be smoothed out more. Of course if he always looks like that.. well every animal is different. But to look at him.. I'd say he's had little to eat or drink while he's been out.

Do you feed him pinkys or adult mice? If he's having a problem with the mice, go back to pinkys, just feed him more often. once every 5 days instead of once a week.
