Thank you!
We finally got around to filling her cage. Now we just need a ton of fake leaves :P

6 1/2 feet?! What a growth spurt! Looking beautiful as ever.

Looks great and seems to be a nice manageable size so far.

She is indeed! I am genuinely excited for her to reach full size, she is going to be awesome to work with.
We have a fresh shed, and some natural light from my skylight!

Your girl looks awesome Spaz. I love the iridescence on her. What's your feeding schedule like?

Thanks guys! :) Currently I feed her once every two weeks, however pretty soon she will be moved up to three weeks. And once she reaches full size, moved to once a month :)

Can't wait to set her up with UVB!

She still looks amazing Spaz :) . I LOVE her consistent iridescence. She's getting some good size on her and she still seems pretty chill. She's very impressive now and I think she's only gonna get better as an adult.

Thank you! I completely agree, she is beautiful now and just gets better and better! She is as calm as ever, but is almost too big for the light box now! :rofl:

She's so pretty and friendly. Scrubs are usually more defensive for I've seen.

She is a special one! I've made sure to work with her to make her as calm as possible, I want to make her one of my ambassador animals when I do my reptile education classes (one last giant snake to wow the audience, one not regularly seen like burms and retics). I took a fun photo with her today to show off how long she's gotten!

Your girl is gorgeous Spaz. You take great pictures too. I should send my male to you. He needs some behavior modification. :)

Awesome! love it when they are intrigued by us and investigate everything.

I love this species.

I am captivated by the semi arboreal behaviors of snakes like this.

It appears you are doing an excellent job with this one.

Aww thanks guys! She had a fresh shed and is looking fantastic :)

That is one gorgeous animal

Lovely beast, how big now and expected max size? Seems to be growing fairly slowly or is this a smaller strain? Don't scrubs get 20ft plus?

So awesome. The large scales on the head are so cool. Great pics!

Stunning

Thanks y'all! She is a southern, which usually only get about 14 feet :) The barnecks are the larger ones, approaching the 20 feet.
I'm having fun testing out different backgrounds with her!
