9 Tips for Keeping snakes

Many people like to keep pets, because it can give them some warmth in their daily life, but some more daring friends also like to keep snakes, which is a relatively niche hobby. Let's share about keeping pet snakes.

1. Features of raising snakes: easy to take care of, less odor, relatively clean.

2. Which snakes are more popular: Most people keep golden pythons, Burmese pythons, corn snakes and ball pythons, etc. Most of them are small snakes, because they are small and easy to take care of. Generally, snakes kept as pets must be non-venomous snakes. At the same time, they should be peaceful in temperament and not aggressive towards people. Most of them are raised from a young age, so it is easier to cultivate feelings with their owners.

What are the disadvantages of raising snakes: Most of the food is fresh live, frogs, chickens, mice or small animals, etc., the cost is high, and the source is not easy. Poisonous or not, there is still the possibility of a bite.

3. Feeding points: At the beginning of feeding, let it rest for at least four to five days. At this time, just provide a water basin, do not disturb it, and let it get used to the new environment. Healthy snakes usually coil silently in a circle in their cages, reacting alertly when a person approaches. Under normal circumstances, snakes will eat live bait, but snakes kept in cages sometimes regard the live body in the cage as a threat, and instead react in self-defense instead of eating. At this time, they can eat fresh animals that have just been killed. . When catching a snake, you can gently press the head of the snake on the ground, and then grab the part behind the head of the snake. When picking it up, pay attention to supporting the whole body of the snake instead of swinging it in the air, otherwise it will easily cause the dislocation of the vertebral joints.

4. Basic equipment for raising snakes: Breeding box: It is best to have a box with a glass door, which is easy to see the internal situation, and the size is moderate. The second is ventilation. Although snakes are clean animals, the ventilation of the breeding box should be paid attention to.

5. Substrate: You can use appropriate materials to lay the bottom in the cage, such as newspaper, sand, soil, etc. You can also add tree trunks to allow the snake to climb.

Adequate drinking water: The function of water is not only for water supply, but also for regulating body temperature, cleaning the body and facilitating defecation. Therefore, prepare a water container that is large enough to immerse the whole body in the water. The water in the basin should be sufficient and fresh water is always available for use.

6. There are only a few kinds of pet snakes kept in the family, such as black snake, python, golden mang, corn snake, etc. These non-venomous snakes are more pleasing to the eye in terms of body color and will not cause fear.

7. A clean, cool and ventilated environment should be chosen in the selection of snake house. The most important thing is that snakes are cold-blooded animals. A permanent light should be installed on the top of the snake house. Under the sunlight instead of sunlight, the snake will digest the food under the sunlight after eating. Of course, the snake can also be placed on the Sun it up in the real sun.

8. The food of snakes is mainly mice. In normal feeding, it is best to kill the mice before feeding the small snakes, so as to avoid injury to the snakes. For large snakes, you can directly put the snakes without killing the mice. In the house, of course, you can also buy small rabbits to feed.

9. Although pet snakes are docile, they should not be played with excessively. Especially when they are molting, snakes will be very anxious, and excessive playing will cause attacks on people. After all, docile pets are also anxious.
