Theres ways to make a tank that still gives the correct amount of enrichment, room and light for a disabled ball python. And typical if a ball python is seen to have a physical deformity they are humanely euthanized since they won't have a good quality of life (ex - kinked spine)

People get away with drawers just like they get away with tiny tanks for exotic fish, and I think any betta is smarter than a snake. But it is what it is.

Eh, snakes can fit in plastic drawers and won't throw a fit if their drawer isn't to their liking. They just lay there, full and content. Nobody cares about their psychological issues.

I only agree with the tub for snakes if the snake is disabled and or has the spider morph for its safety, or babies. Other than that, I don't agree with people who do that

its crazy to me that some poeple are ok keeping medium to large snakes in glorified plastic drawers. just go juju a humongous driftwook log to replace the one shes pretty much outgrown and I cannot immagine a snake that lives its whole life without knowing the joy of climbing a branch fought out of a wood pile. sorry for the reptile rant, saw a snake set up that made me sad :(

Fun groundwork / liberty exercises? May 20, 2025 11:26 AM

Hi there.

My seven year old OTTB and I are taking a year off from showing due to my gelding getting reluctant to work in a bridle. I've been working on finding a bit that he likes, but until then, I've just been trying to make it fun for him.

We've been working on bridleless work, and he's been having a blast. I have run out of groundwork ideas to make it fun for him, so please, if anyone has any, please tell me!

Look into classical dressage and biomechanics! You can play with liberty/groundwork in a way that makes him stronger and sounder (not saying he's unsound, but the way it works to help the horse is INCREDIBLE), teach him the square halt, piaffe, etc., while making it fun and positive for him

Here is a good list for you:
-back up (shaking the rope and asking him to back, once he takes a step back, release the pressure, keep doing this until you just have to wiggle it very gently)
-yielding the hind quarters (moving his hind quarters by using your body language or lunge whip to ask him to move around)
-moving forehand (opposite of quarters)
-leg yield across wall (sending him out perpendicular to the wall, you start by following and asking to yield over, once you are more experienced you stay in place and ask them to yield away without you following their every step, and let the rope out)
-any sort of sketchy looking obstacle is great for confidence, letting them be rewarded for just engaging with it, then rest, then come back and use it as their rest spot until they feel like they are safe to be curious, until they desire to do it themselves without assistance
-spiraling in and out on a circle lungeing
-yielding forehand to you while walking in a small circle
-you can teach liberty follow as well, or target train with a clicker or just your mouth
