He's not even a year old yet. We got a ways to go till we see some real green. :) And thanks, these were just cell shots.

Wow, that's such a neat idea. I'm always torn about these guys because the adults are so pretty and it's neat to watch them change, but the babies are just so stunning! Can't wait to see what's to come!

What a gorgeous snake! I never really witnessed the color change with these guys, makes me want to get one someday. Isn't there one locality of GTP that are more docile and can be handled more? I forgot the scientific name.

He is getting so big, oh goodness.

Sent from my warm hide

Very very beautiful DooLittle.

What an awesome idea! I think I might have to steal it for my little GTP ;). Yours is beautiful by the way!

As with any snake, they are individuals that can have personality on both ends of the scale and anywhere in between. I only have experience with him, but he's been awesome. You don't go in their tubs after dark though, they go into hunt mode in the dark. I have actually seen Epic doing the caudual (sp?) Luring with his tail thing twice in the last week. After its gotten dark and I go in the room and turn on a light. And he's working that adorable little tail! :p

About the locales though, from what I have read alot of, Biaks are typically the meanest. While Jaya's and Aru's seem to be more chill. But you will meet people with friendly Biaks and mean Arus. Nothing is carved in stone.

Definitely following. Thanks for doing this - it will be really fascinating to follow Epic as he grows. I hope to keep a GTP, or two, or three... at some stage in the future, although as I have yet to keep a snake at all I want to gain some experience with another species first. I'll live vicariously through your experiences with Epic for the time being, and hopefully do some learning along the way. Really great that newbies have easy access to this kind of information thanks to forums and people like yourself who are willing to document their experiences :). Epic is so, so stunning by the way!
