  • Good Morning, Reptilians! Let's build Loki a 4ft tank! Just a little update, he has eaten since being in this tank - and even came out to take the mouse from me (that never happens). So he's settled in great! 🥰
    Huge thanks again to ZooMed for sending me the awesome light fixture!

    I have a Florida or brook's king snake and he's the friendliest snake I own. He's never even attempted to bite me.
    My ball python will hiss at me lol.

    Even as someone who's kept many reptiles ranging from beginner snakes to rare, extremely advanced animals - king snakes are still awesome. They're just so simple to keep that they never ever feel like a chore. They're so inquisitive and active that they're fun to watch and handle; and the sheer variety of sub species and morphs is just crazy. Absolutely love king snakes.
    But enough of that rant. You've made a beautiful setup! Lots of enrichment for that hyperactive king Snake brain 😅

    • @ellesreptiles
      @ellesreptiles  Рік тому

      Haha thank you! I completely agree. I can't wait until he's a bit bigger, then he'll be even more enjoyable to watch and definitely to handle. They're awesome snakes. 🥰

  • @lindsayschmidt2177

    What a cutie! I was expecting him to be bigger and then you brought him out and he’s just a little shoelace.

    Good afternoon Elle, hope your week is amazing!! Are king snakes one of the best Reptiles for a beginner Reptiles keeper? They seem so calm I would think they are.

    • @ellesreptiles
      @ellesreptiles  Рік тому +1

      They're great, but they sometimes have a high feeding response and can accidently bite you. And they musk 😬
      I haven't been bitten yet, but I get musked on every time 😅

    Hey Ellie for my first reptile I am going to buy a blue tongue skink I have bought a 4 by 2 by 2 PVC enclosure with a 100 watt ceramic heat emitter and a Arcadia 12 percent uvb desert led light should I also get a halogen heat lamp on the basking side?

    Hey Elle quick question do you absolutely need a dimmable thermostat for a deep heat projector or can I use my old thermostat I use for my heat mats? What would be a good alternative for a deep heat projector?

    The fake plants in my king's enclosure constantly get knocked over and crawled on making me hesitant to go bioactive. Live plants wouldn't have a chance.

    • @ellesreptiles
      @ellesreptiles  Рік тому

      So far so good, but that's going to quickly change as he gets older (or when he realizes where the plants roots are) 😅

    I just don’t understand the use of eco earth.. kingsnakes don’t want, like or need humidity. This stuff is awful
    Not a single mention of heating/what you’re doing for heating.
