What size tub are you using?

I am using a 6 quart tub now. I plan to transfer him / her into a 20 quart at one year-of-age. I will then put him in a 3x2x2 cage at around two years-of-age.

Thats what I had planned on doing as well.

Do you know if they are similar to BP's in the way they get stressed in an enclosure that is to large?

Yes, this is possible and happens quite often. Test'em out and see what happens. They are more resilient than most give them credit for.

All i'm sayin is that thing is HOT! Congrats, and nice pick up.

All of a sudden??????? I've had mine for 10 years!
They were always deemed difficult to keep - not true!

Just like my Emerald's .....yeah, really tough to keep...........

If you do your research and give them what they need, well........

Enough said.

Ooops, sorry - nice animal - Rico does produce some great animals!

That is one BRIGHT looking fellow. real nice

I must say, gtp's have the most gorgeous pattern of any snake IMO, and yours is an great example. Awesome snake!

really awesome looking chondro, how do you go about contacting the breeder, you got it from?
