I know, I know. Where have I been? Well Im not sure but I do know that I GOT A PUPPY. Hes a beagle, 8 weeks old. We got him Saturday morning. Hes really stubborn and super cute. His name is Keet. I have my hands full but Im going to try to get back into the swing of being active on here.

So today I went in to check on Sam and make sure she was nice and warm and had water. Well she wasn’t there. There are SO MANY places to hide in that room. I looked everywhere I could and even followed the cats around to see if they sniffed her out. Tonight I’m going to leave a nice dark box out and scent it with some bedding from my mice tank. Spot has gotten out before and he was much smaller than Sam is so I have high hopes that we will find her.

Hey guys. Today has been a really off day. I didn’t want to get out of bed today so i stayed there till 1:30 then realized Jasper probably had to go to the bathroom so I pushed myself out of bed for him. As soon as he got up he started whining and I didn’t know what was wrong, I thought maybe he just had to potty really bad. After I let him in he was still whining so then my mommy brain was trying to figure out what was up. He laid down and i was putting a little pressure on some spots and once I got to his left hip he start whining :/ He’s doing fine now after I gave I’m some dog asprin but I’m not sure what he did to it. I hope his hips aren’t having problems. But on the bright side I might be getting a new phone soon, and for sure getting jasper microchiped :)

Took Jasper to Petsmart today. He marked his territory… 3 times. Also he pooped in the parking lot on the way in (I made sure he went before we left but, dog)I did get to weight him and hes at 95 pounds, still filling out. Then we took him on a walk on some trails by our house and he did really good. Cyclists and joggers went by and he just kept walking, until we came across a cyclist working on his bike, not sure why this set Jasper off but he started to growl as we walked past (He literally sounded like a bear) and barked but that’s all. Overall it was a very successful day.

Oh Sam. I tried feeding her a F/T mouse, no go. So then i decided to try live since I wasn’t really doing anything else besides skyping with Kay. So i threw in a live mouse and sat there watching for about 30 minutes and within that time span she 1.) Pursued the mouse around the tank but no strike 2.) Stared at me and 3.) Stopped mid pursuing for a 5 minute drink. Well shes closer to eating than she has been in a long time. I will be moving her to a tub soon, we shall see if that makes any difference with her feeding.

Got the shelves up and heat tape working. Next is the thermostat and moving my ball python to it. Cant wait to hit an expo to get some new baby noodles. This was easier than I thought it would be.

So Thursday it was my birthday and I turned 17(Kay turned 17 on Wednesday). Whoop whoop. But the best present I got that day was Spot ate for me!! He had a small rat and I was so happy and proud XD Now I’m just waiting for Sam to eat, then I will know spring is coming.

Spot shed. The last picture is of one of his recent sheds compared to part of a juvenile shed (My pre-teen self obviously didn’t care about that little shed and now its torn to pieces -_-) I now have much more respect for sheds that come off in one piece and save them all (And that makes my dad think I’m crazy) Tbh I think I will always save “Perfect” snake sheds no matter how many snakes I have because I am fascinated by them. (Please ignore my finger nails ew)

Spot shed!! Hes so vibrant :P My dad thinks I’m super weird for saving his sheds, but they are so perfect I couldn’t throw them away XD I’ll post some pictures of his sheds now compared to some of his baby sheds next.
