And the big reveal of the cage I've been hinting at for months! :D Excuse the crappy camera, its made more for photos than for videos. Lol

Awesome!

That's cool!

Great work, I’m impressed.

Thanks guys! She is enjoying her new cage thoroughly :) I do need to add a ton more to it though, its pretty empty as is. But here she is basking in her new cage :)

Hahahaha, Apophis acts like I’m spritzing him with holy water. He always looks at me like I’ve completely betrayed him! Your girl is looking great! Do you think she trumps your other snakes as far as intelligence is concerned?

Bahaha that is hilarious! I love spritzing her cause she's always just "Wtf???"
And thank you! I do see a ton more intelligence in her than compared to my other snakes. When my ball pythons are moving around they seem to move to just move, but Tali here inspects everything she comes across, it is so interesting! She will also watch me when I do things, like for example I had my mom over the other day and was showing her all the reptiles, and Tali came out and periscoped up at us and watched us the whole time.

Right now though, she is deep in shed ;.;

She finally shed! :D

Looking really good!

She's coming along nicely! I'm glad we're getting to see her journey, can't wait to see how she matures once she's full grown. :)

Thanks guys! I can't wait for her to reach adult size tbh. Currently, I think I need to upgrade the size of her perch :P

Oh man, she's putting on some serious size! And she let you pick her up while in shed. That, in itself, is a very special scrub ;) Apophis just hides his face and huffs at me.:rolleyes:

Right! She's getting so big, I'll have to weigh her!
And I really did get lucky, she is so calm. And she shed! :D

Great pics,
That is some serious peroscoping , looks like she was having a good old look around,the heat pits are so pronounced on her

The large head scales are to die for. Amazing animal!

Thanks guys!! She has a fantastic temperament too, I got incredibly lucky with her that she tolerates anything I throw at her (not literally, figuratively lol)
Excuse the.. Well, me, in the picture, but I wanted to show you guys her size compared to me, I am 5 foot six inches. She has about six inches wrapped around my fingers, and isn't even fully stretched out.

WOW.

That's some growth! I was thinking she was smaller, but that's a nice perspective photo.

Great looking animal!

Thanks for this update!

Thank you! :) I am very pleased with her progress!

Got some pics of Tali next to the tattoo I got of her. She was being a butthead and wouldn't hold still next to the tattoo so we had to get a few shots to showcase the tat :P
