snek cooking

edit: to every comment about "hiss the cook": why would you hiss the cook. snakes do that when they're threatened and telling you to heck off. this fella is having a good time. don't ruin it >:(

The baby burmese python of ours. Called him Velvet. He's very shy yet, but we're working on socializing him.

Nanners got to help out with Career Day today and was a perfect baby angel with all of the kids.

I get asked why his travel cage is so small and it’s because you want your reptiles snug when they’re in the car for transport. With too much extra space, any sudden stops or shifting while driving can cause them to slide around which, at best, stresses them out and, at worst, can cause injury from hitting the sides of a bigger enclosure in the case of an accident.

Being in a travel container that allows them to touch all sides keeps them nice and snug during the ride. Snakes are flexible, I promise they can handle being in a tight space for a few hours. He got to come out and stretch multiple times during the day and immediately went back into his normal cage when he got home.

Phoenix should get to have a weird pet

Okay so I had this weird dream where Phoenix, Miles and Apollo enter the WAA and there's just an albino burm chilling there. Phoenix goes "Hey little guy :D", picks it up, the snake goes "Ssss :)" and Phoenix turns to Miles to ask "can we keep it?".

I gave basically this exact same summary on the nrmt discord server and a few people agreed with me that Phoenix should get to have a burm. At this point he's already with Miles and managed to convince him to reform a room of their home so the snake has a big enclousure and appropriate care.

Her name's Buttermilk and she's Phoenix's second (official) child :]

NAGA BULLY AU!!!!! this is so niche oh my god

if u don't know nagas are basically snake people from religious mythology. the top half is a human, while the lower is a snake. there's all different kinds of interpretations of how they look, with some people perferring them to have a humanoid top half BUT keeping the snake head and patterns. like the serpentines from ninjago 💀

in my opinion, I see them with their snake patterns starting from the top of their head to the tail but keeping a human face and front torso of their human half if that makes sense?? I'm really bad at explaining things if u couldn't tell

anatomy designs!!

now that Ive given a breif description- I'm gonna be focusing on derby and bif because I'm unfortunately very biased and autistic (also tumblr is limiting photos anyways). feel free to give species hcs for other characters!!!

derby is an albino gaboon viper. they're my favorite snake ever and I could yap about them for hours and this choice is very much out of bias

look at this diva

facts about gaboon vipers!!!

-they do this thing called rectilinear locomotion (heavy bodied species of snakes do this) which makes they teeter in a straight line rather than slither. it makes them look like inch worms

-despite being the heaviest of any venomous snake, they have the fastest strike of any snake species

-gaboons have 2 inch fangs which is the longest of any snake. very impressive cheese wedge head ass

-they are impossible to spot in stray leaf litter, only moving their pupils and slowly puffing out when seeing a potentional threat bigger than them. they stay in the same spot for days on end until an unfortunate critter steps on their stupid faces

BIF!!!!! he's a giant albino burmese python with orange rings because.... ginger. he looks like the first picture but much bigger

burmese pythons don't need venom -- they use their entire body basically made of pure muscle to constrict prey and suffocate them. they are just big babies idc

that's all I need sleep

A piece I did a few months ago for my 2D design final. We had to make a piece that spoke about something we're passionate about. So I decided to draw something that touched on the invasive species problem in Florida- and how awareness needs to be spread on how releasing animals/pets can lead to species taking over ecosystems that they don't belong to.

We moved! Still unpacking and putting final touches on the house

Sunny is helping with painting.*

*) This was a fresh, never used roller sleeve, and I gently encouraged Sunny to let go after he'd mistakenly grabbed it. Everyone came away unscathed, if somewhat confused.
