Gday all,

thought I would post a short update on my girl. I have named her medusa, because she is an angry female! and if it's just a temporary thing then it will be wonderfully ironic

I got her home from breeder (colin) after a long *** drive, and had the option of putting her into a sterile paper towel tub that I had prepared earlier, or of putting her into a larger natural vivarium, that had lots more places to hide, branches to climb etc.

so I put her straight into the viv, and after her initial shock at being removed from the bag, she slithered around and had a little explore of the ground. I put the top back on and left her alone, watching from a distance (it was about 8pm and getting dark) and she had a good old explore around, for the 2 hrs that I watched she explored every facet of her enclosure, even having a drink while hanging from the branch above her water.

got up in the morning, couldn't find hide nor hair of her, had a little panic than checked the back of the fridge straight away. I couldn't see her there so I had a better look in the enclosure, moving the substrate around a little, and uncovered her, completely buried!

she had had a poo overnight, and apparently shed, as I found the head on the ground of the enclosure.

I wanted to check if she shed ok, and had a mate with some more experience than me around, so I took her out of her enclosure (she really didn't want to go, gave me a love tap and drew a little blood) but we got her out with minimal fuss and I went and sat outside for 5 minutes with her, she was just chilled out on my hands, kept wanting to go up my sleeve and hide though.

I took her back into her enclosure, and have just left her completely alone after that, except for watching her at night for an hour or two.

She seems to be super strong, she lies on the ground and pushes her body up the corner of the plastic for over a foot before moving her head around looking for a way to get out

she picks a different sleeping spot every day, hasn't used the hide once though... this morning I woke up to find her curled around the fluoro cage looking exactly like a black and white GTP, exactly the same curled up with head resting on body posture that they use lol.

today she didn't even bother burying herself though, she just curled up around the base of one of the plants in the tank.

Her first feed tonight, so I will let you all know how it goes. I'm guessing that she will defensively strike anything I put in her tank, so hopefully she actually eats the mice.

Sorry about the novel, just excited!

Cheers,

Daniel

Nothin special but was playin late yesterday afternoon.
And one of where we found him one morning many months ago.

 

[Jarden]

Is that brown stuff the substrate your using insane?? what is it

 

[Insane]

yeah mate, its a mix of coco peat and sphagnum moss with a little sand. probably 80% coco. looks good, cleans easily (poo's anyway, urine just gets absorbed into the substrate and decomposes) my only concern at the moment is moisture retention, it seems a little damp. for that reason I am only watering my plants once every 2 days, and only a small spray around their base, there is still heaps of moisture in the substrate for them.

The snake spends minimal time on the ground anyway, for the last 2 days shes slept curled up in a fern.

 

[Southside Morelia]

LOL, so you sorted out the enclosure Daniel???

Its trial and error mate.

Good luck.

Just thought i'd share a few pics of my bro in law's jungle.

Took these about a month back and photo shopped the background out. This guy is an evil little b...tard. Tagged me about a few times when i tried to get him out for some photos. Luckily he's only a yearling so the damage wasnt bad. Almost comical as the wife was freaking out cuz i was being bitten

A couple pics of the bites as well cuz everyone loves blood pics.

 

[chris_snake]

you have an angry little jungle there by the look of things lol
