Having rubbing issues (still) Irwin, my 4 1/2-year-old male central American, nosing like crazy at all of the gaps/edges of the sliding glass doors. So far all I can do is apply weatherstripping to the edges and gaps to keep him from doing any more damage to his nose, but I’d really prefer to fix it at the root.
Snake is just over 4 1/2 feet long housed in a 4 x 2 x 18“. Substrate is Coco chips, humidity is usually in the mid to high 60s, fluctuating a bit recently because our heat is it drying out the air more quickly than usual. Warm side is 88/89, cool side 78/79. Has a warm side hide and climbing tree. Not sure how much it makes a difference but I have a female in the tank just above his. She is only about 2 1/2 years old although she is definitely nowhere near large enough to breed I don’t know if she has any sort of sexual maturity that might be resulting in pheromones and what not… I know very little about breeding because I have no intention to ever do it but I know that randy males sometimes push.
