Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of snake breeding, in particular to a snake nest box which is convenient for snakes to shed their skin. Background Art
[0002] Snake shedding is an important physiological phenomenon of snakes. The bodies of snakes continue to grow, but their skin is made up of stratum corneum and cannot stretch as the body grows like human skin. When the snake's body grows to a certain size, the old skin will become tight, restricting the snake's movement and continued growth, so it needs to shed the old skin and replace it with new, more suitable-sized skin to adapt to the changes in the body.
[0003] A Chinese patent (authorization announcement number: CN 211020603 U, authorization announcement date: 2020.07.17) proposes a snake nest box that is convenient for snakes to shed their skin. The patent has several inward-protruding block-shaped convex rocks fixed on the inner wall of the box, and several interconnected molting channels are opened on the inner wall of the box. Several uneven sand and gravel are fixed on the inner wall of the box, the outer wall of the convex rock and the inner wall of the molting channel. When the snake climbs along the inner wall of the box, the block-shaped convex rock facilitates the snake to entangle. When the snake crawls in the molting channel and entangles on the convex rock, the uneven sand and gravel constantly rubs against the snake's body, and the friction between the sand and gravel and the snake's body is relatively large, which facilitates the snake to shed its skin.
[0004] When snakes are shedding their skin, they need to maintain a high temperature and humidity, which are also conducive to the growth and reproduction of various bacteria. However, the box in this patent is a closed structure, with the protruding rocks and molting duct fixed to the inner wall of the box. This makes it difficult to thoroughly clean and disinfect the box after the snake has shed its skin. Excessive bacteria may affect the growth and development of the snakes during long-term use. In order to provide the necessary environment for snakes to shed their skin and facilitate the comprehensive cleaning and disinfection of the box after the snake has shed its skin, we propose a snake nest box that is convenient for snakes to shed their skin.
