Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

She still seems pissed at being moved around and is spending a lot of time hidden on the grounds, however she has taken a pinky so I thinks she will just take some time to settle.

I've seen her drinking so she is hydrated.

I've told Dave I'm kidnapping his Timbers! Razz

They spend at least half their time on the ground, especially at that age/size and is quite normal. Put a small piece of cork bark for it to hide under and it will feed well there. You can often get them to drink by hooking it onto the edge of a large water bowl and spraying its head with a few squirts of water. It will then drink out of the bowl.

Post some pics of the timbers before Dave gets his hands on them, let the rest of the world see them first.

Very nice Graeme, and the photos are incredible! You did very well picking your first squamigera. Now get ready for your snakeroom to be overrun with them. Laughing They're a great species.
