I’ve progressed to the next step of my ERP therapy: lurking in discord servers

San Francisco garter snake ribbon planter 🐍

When you walk into the room for morning check and the blood python is already stanced up and staring at the door

Imagine how powerful I would've been if my cattle penning days weren't in my "trying to be a relatively normal person" phase and I was a goth trans cowboy instead

Another pic of Shar. The color change from moving three feet to different lighting is no joke

Crying and begging my Aphonopelma bicoloratum to grow

Offended because she got weighed

Bat Friday

My paladin Raine

I love taxonomy I love dog breeds I love Sorting Animals Into Categories

I don’t pay attention to the National Dog Show (Crufts is MY dog event) but you’re telling me a groenendael won this year? Fuck yeah

I haven’t made chili in three years because I forgot it existed but by god I’m gonna make it now

[observing someone’s obsessive passion project] wow i really like whatever’s wrong with that guy

Blood 🥀

Two of the other ladies

My beloved Phormictopus atrichomatus sexed female 🎉 I should’ve been able to check a long time ago but she would NOT give me a useful molt

Reasons someone should date me: I have so much space that we can split an animal room together

Ghost Moth.

goofy ass face (frozen/thawed rodent)

Puff Adder (Bitis arietans), highly venomous.

This is definitely one of those days where my stress level is so high it makes me wish I didn't quit substances

it must feel good as fuck to be a dog and give a person rabies

make unicorns scary again!!! a wip

A Scarlet Kingsnake (Lampropeltis elapsoides) from NE Louisiana. These small (<24in) kingsnakes are mimics of the venomous Eastern Coral Snake (Micrurus fulvius) and a joy to photograph. #herps #snakes #NaturePhotography 🌿

it’s normal for her to want to be held in the bathroom after i brush my teeth, but climbing on my shoulder to force me into a head bath is a new one

I hate Repticons but the better expo we briefly had isn't coming back to my state in 2026. I'm suffering over here

It's been almost a year without a drymarchon in the house. Sad!

You know what that is? Growth.

A compressed substrate block hates to see my impatient ass coming

Crawling out a five day migraine hole

We've got adult rat snakes overwintering at wildlife rehab this year and they're so handsome but I can't share them 😞

The littlest baby’s in shed

A handful of Sorrel

My brain’s been really erratic for the past two weeks and I feel like it’s noticeable 😖 I’m trying to restabilize this weekend, I’ll be normal again soon

The color change in Phormictopus is always fun. I’d love to get pics of how it looks now… if only it would let me

I did it 🥴 The couple of you who followed me here on main should swap unless you WANT to keep seeing my snakes and spiders
