    These two are loving the shoe rack!!

    Fernie (Bredli) is now over 200 empty grams and Cornell (JCP) was 162 empty. I'm loving watching them drow, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't wish they were growing more quickly. But, I do feed on the conservative side and will happily let them grow out slowly and healthy. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...bc1b82df18.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9a70882789.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...562fe313a0.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e24eb0003e.jpg

    Great looking duo there bud! None of my Morelia have eclipsed the 200 gram mark and my oldest is almost 26 months now. I think you’re doing them both quite well [emoji41]

    What Happens When They Don't Shed?
    This girl hasn't had a shed since November 2019.

    But then just 2 days ago, she went through a perfect shed. The first in a long while.

    I'm shocked at how nice this 7 plus year old snake looks. She still has some neon colors blended in with the browns and blacks.
    https://i.imgur.com/ntwtp7N.jpg

    There is a bonus non Morelia species here as well. The elusive, black pit bull made an appearance. She's a bit too interested in the snakes so she is watched very carefully when they are out.

    Same type of photos as I usually take on the rail but she's definitely sporting some nicer paint here.

    Thank you so much for that jm. First just let me say Nick is a super cool dude. I've had phone conversations with him that were hours long and most of the time we didn't talk about snakes, we talked about everything but because he's just an easy guy to talk to. His topic on morphs and what it's done to the hobby is literally exactly what I say to everyone I talk to when they bring up morphs. I can't wait for that book to come out!

    I totally agree. Super cool guy and very interesting to converse with. I talked with him on the phone before I got my female Brisbane from him and we talked for an hour and a half about everything from how awful social media/screen based social interaction in general is, how humans are not designed to be obligate herbivores, the loss of various pure species in the hobby, and also the snakes I was interested in buying and the interesting backstory on their pedigree and history and how we nearly lost Brisbane coastals in herpetoculture due to the jag/morph crazy. Looking incredibly forward to the new book!

    Ha ha yep!

    Long, long conversations and once the snake topics were covered, everything else was up for discussion.

    I'm glad my Bredli came from Nick!

    More "active wear" from the Mafia.

    Just a heads up, these did not go well. Jewel was not pleased coming out of the cage, nor did she enjoy the handling. I thought adding a snake to the equation would make it more interesting but in reality it was annoying and my pictures are backwards and blurry.
    https://i.imgur.com/gvq5Dvc.jpg



    The V-Neck option that Craig added is a nice change up.

    I really like the shirt. Prior to these pictures I was sporting it at the local brewery. My guess,,,, Not a single person knew the definition of "Morelia" .

    Dakski had the right idea!

    JM looks cool in his photo. Unfortunately I can't rock the hair like Craig and JM.

    This is unrelated, but morelia worthy.

    I switched up the Bredli and Coastal caging situation. Jewel is over 8 feet long and starting to remind me of the retic in certain ways. Good ways though so I'm happy to move her up.

    Kevin was, and still is, always perched and I have him in a really nice display now that he's in Jewel's cage. He's still in the upper right corner of the 4 footer and that's where he'd hang in the 6 footer.

    He's better off, at least for now in the 4 footer. It depends on how he grows and if he tops out over 8 feet. He's a tad more robust like a boa when it comes to mass.

    Jewel is best off now with some room. The beauty of the caging here is that I can move 3 snakes into different environments as needed and they will likely benefit from something new when they are moved.

    That's my non photo contribution to this thread today.

    The shirts are awesome! I love mine! How did they turn out in the wash for you guys? I’m tossing mine in tomorrow.

    I feel the shirt makes me feel like a new man and just so much hotter ... what do you guys think ???

    I suppose that I should take what I can get since I’m not part of the cooool carpet club anymore so I’m bringing up the rear with banner the GTP....

    Thanks JM. He's a good 5FT now I think, and I was told to expect 5-6FT as an adult. He's IJ/Darwin Hybrid, and I am not sure how much he has to grow. Not saying he won't grow more, I just don't know how much more :). Given his growth of late and what I've seen (limited) of other IJ/Darwin, I expect he'll double in weight or so from here. Not sure though.

    Remember, with these guys, growth is not linear. The larger the meals, the more weight they pack on. However, I did an analysis of Yafe's growth and the growth rate itself is pretty linear. Keep in mind he was born 6-2017, but had a big setback with the RI that kept his weight pretty stable around 110G from 10-2018 until about 1-2019. So he's a little behind.
