Caesar looks amazing every time I see him Sauzo. It looks like he's growing nicely too. What's his feeding schedule like?

Thanks. His feeding schedule is whatever he can grab onto lol. He used to be every 4 days but I've pushed him back to a medium quail, chicken or rat once a week. But usually after about 5 days, he's perching looking around, pushing his head between the litter dam and door or sprawled out in front of the food door doing his starvin marvin impression lol. And if someone walks by his cage, he is outside and in the front looking for food lol.

I love these progression threads! Please keep spamming Caesar pics :D

How long and how much does he weigh now? Baby retics eyes and snouts look so much like a ball python, it confuses me haha

I haven't weighed Caesar but he's about 5' long.

Caesar getting some hang out time. I generally open the snake cages while I'm around watching tv and they usually just hang out with their heads outside just sitting there. The boas love to do it and now it looks like Caesar is starting to enjoy it too. Caesar hangs down a little and looks around and then climbs back up into his cage and sits there lol.

Great lookin Boy right there :gj:

Thanks. He is such a trouble maker though lol. He basically finds a way to ruin anything nice I try to give him or finds ways to escape stuff that the boas don't even think of lol. A few nights ago, he some how got himself stuck in his plant and was thrashing about. I went to go see what was happening and I freaked out. I had to take him along with the vine out and he was REALLY scared lol. I had to slide blunt nose scissiors into the ring on the vine and cut it to free him. A spot on his body had roughed up scales and he immediately curled up on my arm after I got him free and he just sat there on me for like 30 mins haha. Then after that he slowly started exploring on me again and going back to being his troublemaking self. So I yanked the vine out. So whats Caesar do the next night......he starts digging around inside his water bowl and pushing ReptiChips around. Luckily his scales all smothed out and the indent that vine ring left on had gone away and he seems to be back to pita self lol. The picture above is him tonight, a few days after the whole fiasco. Heres what the vine looks like. Out of focus big time but you can see the rings still. So be warned, these vines work awesome for small snakes or big snakes but for those that are inbetween, they can get stuck.

Thats hysterical hahahahaha. I disagree with those who think there just mindles reptiles, I watch them sit for a sec & think lol. My Burm even gets mad, he will HISSS at me and go back to doing what I stopped him from doing (crawl up onto kitchen counter) until he finnaly gives up after i drag him back off and finds other trouble to get into.
I had to remove the vines from the BP's because of that same thing. My male was hanging upside down and making it all the across the 48" and kept going back and forth every night but each night one branch would break and he would fall 10" and BOOM.. Id wake up & go make sure he was ok and he would be back to it. He even was doing it the night after he ate and i said thats enough and took the hanging branches/vines down before he hurt himself. Thats when I did the PVC much safer. They all crack me up.
You've got some SMART ones too. Their known for that!!!!

Lol yeah. Dottie does drive by hissings sometimes when you pet her or block her path to her destination like your burm lol. Dottie and Caesar have to have a hawkeye on them when they are out or they will go for the floor and find something to get into to cause trouble. The boas are generally ok as long as they cant find something to climb. Rosey climbed up a torchier lamp I had and got to the top and then stretched out to look around and toppled it haha. It made a huge bang on the floor and bent the lamp, popped the cover off but luckily didn't break the bulb. She just sat there holding it on the floor and looking at me when I went over there hahaha. She also loves to knock stuff off shelves or tables. Vicky is pretty much the only one who is well behaved when outside.
