Electric Power box is gray metalI want to repaint/detail itCable box is plasticI would also like to remove traces of house paint from aluminum storm window frames and drip flashing at roof edge.Any suggestions about how to do this effectively? The house will look a lot neater detailed this wayLooks a little sloppily done in areas.

Answer:

Reptiles are cold blooded and the blanket won't help because they can't absorb the heat like warm blooded animals canMaybe if you get a heated blanket of some sort it will keep your snake warm.
look you dont need a blanket your hands should be warm enoughwrap him round your fingers if its small and lightly make sure all of its body is touching your skin and he will gradually get warmeri dont think a blanket would work to be honestif the snake is cold take him into a slightly warmer room in the house.
It would be enough to increase the time you can play with him, but it at least won't work as well as it would for a warm-blooded animalWarm-blooded animals have faster metabolisms, so we run hotter than something like a snakeAnd a cold snake can't shiver to warm itself.
You'll be able to find a primer for both plastic and metal, but you'll have to sand lightly before priming and paintingIf your drip, storm window frames and roof edge are pianted, you'll have a hard time taking off the paint, might as well repaint on top for as far as the drip and flashing are concerned, you'll most likely dammage the aluminium finishI don't know if you're near the ocean, but if you take off the original finish of the aluminium, you'll have to change it altogether in a few yearsPrime and paint over them with an oil base paint would be the best betWhile you wait for the coats to dry, put your brush filled with oil paint in a plastic bag and leave it in the freezer1/2 hr before doing another coat, take it out and place it in the sun, it'll be fresh as the day before
Having had a corn snake for a number of years I occasionally being really tired but wanting to make sure I was looking after her properly took her out for some exercise while still really tired in the evening and then proceeded to fall asleep while holding herOn one of these thankfully rare occasions my mother wanted to check on my corn snake as somewhat to my consternation they got along better than I had thought but when my mother checked on my corn snake she realized that she was outside of her tank and came to ask if I had her out and woke me to find out where she wasSurprisingly my corn snake had remained close by and the furthest she ever went was about 1-2 metres from me over a period of about 3-4 hoursTo cut a long story short - so long as you are warm yourself your snake will most likely prefer being as near to you as your comfortable (mine having decided that going inside my shirt was fun on many occasions).
