    Advertised this guy and can’t even give this snake away it seems...
    Just now just wrestled him for half an hour to clean his cage. IMMEDIATELY upon getting him back in he thrashed against his water bowl and spilled half of it totally soaking his clean new paper. I’m out of patience

    Wow,

    Total jackass mode.

    I think this will pass though. You should dark out his windows and leave him be for a couple weeks. No food, just water and see if he eventually settles after the breeding season.

    As long as he's not pushing and ripping his face up.

    Is he still in a 4 foot cage bud?

    He’s is pushing nonstop and ripping up his face. Did have his windows blocked for a week with no change. In the 4’ currently. I hate this so much right now and just need him gone.

    That sucks man, I'm sorry and feel for you. If your new cage arrives and you can get him into a 6 footer, MAYBE things will improve.

    I know you've done everything possible. Is Philly's situation improving or are you thinking of placing them both?

    Phyllis still isn’t eating, still swollen face, on another round of two different antibiotic injections currently. I don’t want to place her but the way things are looking I probably couldn’t even if I wanted to. Literally can’t even give Gerald away around here

    If you want to send her to me I will make the huge cage into 2 and see if it calms her down.

    Read above. She’s not the one I’m interested in placing elsewhere. Also, it is illegal to transport retics into Texas to the best of my knowledge

    I had rainbow shipped to me and there was no problem. And it was a typo I meant to say him not her

    I think large breeders may have some legal loopholes that apply to them but pretty sure an average hobbyist cannot bring a retic across state lines into Texas, NY, Florida, and maybe a couple others. I’m also not FedEx shipping certified for reptiles and Gerald weighs too much to use ShipYourReptiles.com. If you’re down for a road trip, come and get him and he’s yours. I’m in Starkville, MS.

    I'd have to take a couple days off of work to do the road trip I have a pet store you could ship into probably want me to check
