Re: Introducing Apophis (pic heavy)
This boy was a little monster tonight! I finally got some of the alterations to his viv done, (3 months later[emoji849]) so I wanted to move him back into his bigger home. I broke the golden rule and accidentally reached an arm into his cage. Bad idea. After he nailed my thumb, I realized today would normally be his feeding day...but we are beginning to space out from 10-day feeding schedules to 14 day. This is him wishing I was dead.

This was the first time I got to marvel at the legendary strike range of a scrub python![emoji23]
As always, he’s a sweetie once you get him out. He was like, “mooooom, is that my room?!?”

He explored every inch of his space.

And now he’s just laying, in the open, body stretched as long as he can. I bet that feels great!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...010b700fb0.jpg

Feeding day or not, I can’t reach into the cage of my young Olive Python. She will zap me as well. I’m sure at some point I’ll get complacent and do it anyway, and I’m sure I’ll get tagged.
Thank you! I'd forgotten how active he is when he has plenty of space to play. I had to move him into an 18" cube over Christmas because winter temps/humidity suddenly became too low in that setup and I was going to be out of town. Didn't want to come home to a snake-cicle, so I downgraded him until I could make some alterations.
Yeah, I imagine he'll always have to be removed with a hook (or sneak attacked while sleeping). He's an absolute lamb once out of his viv, but inside is definitely a no-hands zone. It's going to be interesting to watch him grow. He could end up being a real handful!

That's a truly marvellous set up !!
