Thanks

not that i know of she has two perches in her tub and has never used them that i have seen, but they are there since she is a semi arboreal snake.

Really beautiful snakes!!!! :gj:
Some hot pick ups!
congrats!

The thing i love about Irian Jayas is that their color gets a lot brighter with age. When that little guy is about 2 years old he will be a killer gold.

Heres a few pics of her after she shed this week i can already see the color changes, i really need to build a light box so i can take some better pics lol well let me know what you guys think.

Reptiles always look lots nicer immediately post-shed, but wow, that's a pretty big difference, even allowing for the significant difference in lighting. Looking good.

I usually don't go for IJs but wowza! That one is going to be smokin!

beautiful snake nice pattern.. no light box needed those are great pics!

mine use their perches at night nearly every night.

my female also will only strike at prey items off of her perch. When i put the mouse in there she shoots to her perch and then its hammer time.

another little side note, i switched from large rat fuzzies to small adult mice a few weeks back and they are growing like weeds! the extra calcium from the mature mice seemed to help them grow a ton!

she just shed again shes growin like a weed!!! this will be her third shed since february when i got her, let me know what you guys think of her color progression so far.
