Edit: do they grow into their eyes? seems like they have big eyes as hatchlings/juvies but your 1.0 eyes now seem proportional. i'm asking as a BP fan as some of our BP designer morphs have big, bug eyes.

In my opinion the adults eyes are proportional to the rest of their body. The baby's just look a little goofy. I do plan on attempting to breed them in a few years. Hopefully I'm successful.

[B]Some Things I have noticed with Apodora Papuana[/B]
For the most part they are pretty laid back. My female is a bit cage defensive however once you have your hands on her she becomes completely placid. They put their food to growth in a ridiculous way. It is my theory that they are eating more birds and reptiles in the wild. Taking from my observation with my girl and the observations of other keepers of Papuans that I have talked to, they do not seem to digest high fat prey items very well. When fed birds their stool is solid and more digested. When given large fat rats their stool tends to be loose and not digested as well. This is just my theory so dont take it as gospel. As of right now my girl has eaten chicken of all types, quail reptilinks, guinea fowl reptilinks, and quail rabbit blend reptilinks.
As far as temperature is concerned they seem to like it on the cooler side unless they are digesting. I run her cage with a hot spot of about 85.5 deg f and a cool side of 77-80 deg f. The only time that I see her on her hot side is when she is digesting or at the tail end of her shed cycle. She soaks for about 24 hours once a month during her shed cycle. These snakes seem to use every bit of there environment. She burrows and climbs so I make sure she has all of that in her cage. Please let me know if you have any questions and I will update as I become a better student of the serpent.

Hey Rage, congrats on Osisseius. He’s a fine looking fella.
I picked up an Aussie Olive not too long ago. I would have sworn that she was the spawn of Satan. She was more that cage defensive, she was cage AGGRESSIVE!
If I just walked into the room she would charge from the back of cage and machine gun strike the glass until I went away. If I opened the glass she would come flying out with mouth wide open. But the funny thing was, once I handeled her she was calm as can be.
I work with her diligently every night with exception to food and shed of course. She has come a long way and is not quite so bad in the cage now.
I really look forward to your [emoji4] first clutch of Pappies.
Oh, I like his name too!

Awesome. Yeah my big female is like that while she is in the cage but as soon as you pull her out she is calm.
