Lol yeah a house makes stuff easier. I mean the finished basement is a sweet yellow wall with red carpet but hey, it's my house. I'll get around to rerefinishing it after the snakes are set up :P

Ok, well i haven't done any pics of Caesar for awhile so here are a couple. He hasn't shed in awhile either so that's part of the no new pic reason. this is him looking not so pleased i lifted his hide off him lol. he also seems to be getting some nice vivid coloring to him.https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...0800f1c2_h.jpg

Aren't they all just so adorable when they look like that? Caesar is quite the handsome fella.

Seems ok. It's pretty much the same as ReptiChips but half the price and not as uniformly cut. Caesar got an extra helping today. Dottie didnt want her small rat so Caesar got that and his large rat. The guy pounds 250g rats like they are tic tacs lol.

I'm bumping Gene up to larger next time I order. He could eat two larges if I'd let him.

Ok so i just took this pic of Caesar. He ate a large rat and small rat yesterday. There is barely a lump in him. But the real reason for the pic is wondering what you guys think about his size? From the back of the cage where he is bent is the end of the cage. So he's pretty much doubled that so 4' there. Then where his snoot is the middle of the cage so if you straightened him out there and moved him into the corner more, I'm going to guess that is just over 2' there. So adding all that up, I'm going to guess Caesar is pushing just over 6'. Sound about right to you guys?
Also if you look at where the gauge is, that is the large rat and small rat. Doesnt really look much thicker than the rest of him does it? I think the mainland in him is strong. Like i said, he ate that large rat like it was a tic tac breath mint :O
And when he ate yesterday, he shot out of his cage and grabbed the rat and almost fell out of the cage. So i grabbed him and pushed him back in his cage. Well i guess he thought he was going to fall so he wrapped my arm with his tail. I got a little worried and unwrapped him and shoved him in the cage. Well it was almost like he was 'sad' i did that as he let go of his rat and just sulked there lol. I felt bad. He didnt want to eat and just looked depressed haha. Well he finally slowly ate his rat. He was so happy at the beginning when he was offered it, then when i uncoiled his tail off my arm and shoved him in the cage, its like he got depressed. i mean i know snakes dont have those feelings like that but I'm saying looking at it from humans point of view, thats the best way i can describe it. never seen Caesar do that before. He's happy again though now.https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...204ba547_h.jpg

Re: Caesar progression thread.
Tina my ball python is dumb, she is scared of her own shadow, but she is great. But not much of a personality. I agree everyone says snakes don't have feelings, but I sometimes think Gene does. He has a personality, if I put my hand down towards my knee when I'm sta ding near him, hell start to reach up (that's how I get most of his weird photos). His body language is so different everyday. He'll just sit and watch for hours like this with his head out. Once I bump him with paper towel roll, I can reach for hi. Or rub his head while he just sits. So I think retics might be the exception.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...8853fe15cf.jpg

My boas all have personality too. Vicky is kind of a do it herself gal lol. Rosey seems to like attention. Gina is pretty new but seems to have the same personality Rosey has. Rango is very inquisitive and checks stuff out when you open the cage. Luna always pokes her head out of her hide when i open her cage and seems to like to sit on me while i watch tv. Caesar seems to like to interact with me but isnt a huge fan of being dragged around like Rosey and so far Gina are. And Dottie, i almost never see her unless it's night time. Then she will switch hides or hang half out of one hide.
And i agree, i think snakes do have personalities.
Oh and i forgot the most important part about the Caesar dinner incident. After he grabbed the rat and then almost fell out of the cage and i grabbed him and he wrapped my arm with his tail and i unwrapped him and pushed him into his cage, he let go of the rat and sulked. he sat there for like 10 mins. Finally i got my long tongs and grabbed the large rat. He didnt even care. I then dangled at his face again and he didnt eat it at first. He just flicked his tongue at it and then laid down like when i boop his snoot with a paper towel. it's almost like a submissive act. I then kind of laid the rat in front of his snoot and wiggled it some. He then calmly took it and ate it. Then about 30 mins later i offered him Dottie's small rat and when i opened the door, he was front and center again and he slammed that little rat like a fat kid going for a snickers bar. Just so weird that he went gung ho for that large rat but the minute i uncoiled him off my wrist and shoved him in the cage, it was like he thought he did something wrong and didnt want to eat and just laid there in front of me with his head down on the floor. it was like when a puppy pisses on the floor and knows he did something bad. And no I'm not one of those crazy people who sleeps with his snakes and showers with them and thinks they want to go for a dinner and a movie but it was weird as I've never seen Caesar react like that. He has always been KILL THE DINNER!!.
And i think the 2nd T25 is going to go Caesar. The first one will go to Rosey for sure. Vicky will just have to wait a couple months lol. I couldn't afford to drop almost $2k at once. Dropping about $1400 for the 2 T25s and stand caused my card to scream in agony as it was lol.

Well i think i have my problems figured out...for now lol. I put my Herpstat 2 Redline and Herpstat 1 Redline up for sale as well as my Pro-Line cage. Sold my other Herpstat 2 and Herpstat 1 and now am going to just order 3 AP T25s so no one will have to wait for the upgrade. This will leave me with 2 T8s vacant which maybe i can fill later this year with my Pucallpa Peruvian and a sharp snow bci :D Here's to dreamin eh.

Hey sauzo will you ship the herpstat? It'd be the perfect gift for my sister

Sorry man. I don't want to deal with the shipping thing. Much easier to just meet someone with cash in hand and do the trade.

Alright, Caesar shed last night and so i took a few pics of him. Was tired from mowing the lawn so they didnt come out the best but I'll get more :) And he is going to be a big boy. Good thing he is mellow.These pics are all without any flash too. He was fired up and glowing lemon yellow.

He's looking good man. And getting thick!

Thanks. Yeah he isnt putting on too much length at the moment thank god. He's easily 6'+. He really wasnt that social today though. After i put him back, he just looked at me a little bit and then went in his cool hide lol. I tapped on the bottom of his cage on the track with the tip of my finger which usually will get him to pop out but instead he just poked his head out, looked at me, flicked his tongue and then backed into the hide again. Guess he wants alone time.

Here's another one i found of Caesar. Cant get over how big he is getting. He actually feels larger than Rosey now.

Well, i noticed Caesar was going bonkers tonight so i slid a door open to see what was up and i quickly learned what was up. He had taken a HUGE poop inside his cool house. He came flying over to the open door and sat there looking at me lol. So i ended up reaching in and cleaning up his poop while he sat there looking at me reaching above him to scoop poop and F10SC the spot. He then turned around, looked over the spot and then turned back around and sat with his head on the litter dam with his tongue flick of approval lol. Here's a pic of him after it was done. The turd was just to the left of him haha.
Funny how i was kind of scared of getting a retic because of the mean reputation i heard about. Caesar is like a more interactive, fast moving, more peeing and pooping, skinnier boa kind of thing haha.

Re: Caesar progression thread.
So you can use the F10 while they are in the enclosure? I was so worried even if residue was left in there after cleaning as 1 of the warnings states it's corrosive to skin.

Yes you can. Some people even say you can use it in a nebulizer for early RI although i have never tried it. I am guessing it is corrosive in concentrate form. I've used it for cleaning for a long time and get it all over my hands when i spray down cages and let it soak and wipe it out. I dont spray it on my snakes or anything and in the case of Rosey and Caesar, i usually have to push them away as they like to investigate what's going on.
And i use to spot clean a poop or piss area while they are in the cage. I went back to aspen so i just use a paper towel and grab the poop or piss along with a good area around it and then spray F10SC on a paper towel and wipe the area of the floor with it and then spread out the aspen to cover that spot, all the while fighting off Caesar and Rosey as like i said, they love to watch me spot clean and want to come over to oversee the procedure lol.

Correct .
I successfully treated / cured a case of RI in a young Royal I got in a swap deal for at tank of Malawi cichlids ... many years ago .
I nebulised F10 diluted with water 1:250 for 30 minutes each day for 10 days or so ..

Alright, well it was a nice day out today so i decided to see if Caesar would cooperate. I tried putting him down on a chair next to a railing hoping he would climb up on the railing and perch. Nope. He was kind of scared of outside and looked around but kept coming back onto me lol. So the pics arent the best as i cant get a full shot of him on me as he is 6.5' long. Anyways, here's some pics of his parts showing him fired up outside. The first pic is him contemplating the meaning of life with his tail :P

Caesar has a new favorite thing to do now. When he starts pushing or going crazy, i slide the door open and pet him and he seems to calm down and curl up in front of the open door and just hangs out lol. Then eventually, he wanders over to the warm side and goes to sleep. Pretty easy to tell now when he poops or pisses without even smelling it. Caesar will push and go crazy in the cage. Him and Rosey both do that. It's a sign they need a spot cleaning haha. Here he is hanging out while i pulled his warm hide out, wiped it down and then spot cleaned the warm side and F10SC it and then push aspen around to cover everything up again.

Thanks and yeah he gets fired up when happy. He's getting more used to outside but still isnt Gina or Rosey who care less about pics and want to see whats going on when outside.
So after analyzing my snakes, Rosey and Gina have the same personalities, outgoing and exploring, not shy at all. Victoria and Rango have the same personalities, care less about being held but do like to check stuff out but not as gung ho about new stuff as Gina and Rosey. Dottie cares less about whats going on but if taken out, she likes to explore. Luna is just a lounger. She is happy to sit on me for hours. Caesar seems to care less about being held but does like to hang out with his door open and seems to enjoy being pet for the most part. He will just sit at the front of the open cage next to the litter dam while i pet him. Sometimes he will climb on me but seems to like his cage more haha.
I think once Gina gets big, her and Rosey would be the 2 perfect 'park snakes' although i dont plan to drag them to the park. They just have that really calm yet curious demeanor. Anyways, back to Caesar. I'll try and get some more pics of him in a couple days when its supposed to warm up again.

I love Gina, so no matter what she's like I'd give her a thumbs up, but nice bonus to have her mellow. Some BCC tend to be a little less friendly but I think those stories are like early retic stuff. Captivity tends to improve demeanor each generation.
Caesar's head/neck tie in is really filled out! No more skinny neck, he's thick right up to his head.
Wallace isn't there yet, but I feel like he's getting big. I'll see how he does over the summer. I think he's fine in his cage but I want it much taller. When he's moody coming out, I want some space to work with.
My carpet is my friendliest, most outgoing. Sniper the BC is really chill but could care less, the royal is timid but also the only snake here that hasn't bitten me. Wallace is cool, he is improving all of the time.
Caesar will look really nice in the green grass if you dare lay him down LOL!
-
Lol yeah, we'll see. He's been on the floor of the house and he seems pretty laid back. Didn't dart or anything. Was more wondering what the floor was i think haha.
Caesar has really filled out. He is thick(for a retic) and muscular. When he swats my hand away, you definitely know it haha. He's no where near the thickness of Rosey and i doubt he ever will be. Rosey is about as thick as a pop can.
I bet Wallace will mellow out with age. Caesar was kind of a spazz as a baby and always on the go but he seems to be slowly mellowing out and isnt nearly as fast moving unless he doesnt want to come out which in that case, he tries to outrun my hands pulling him out haha or if he smells food which in that case, i use a door as a shield as I've had Caesar, Vicky, Rosey and even the little babies Gina and Rango take shots out the door at me when they smell those mice and rats thawing. Once there is no food, they are all the sweetest but with food, i wouldnt trust any of them lol. Even Rosey gets that 'wild look' when she smells rat.
The reptile shop i traded Allison at still has her. Seems no one has bought her because of her temperament. I still go over and look at her when i go up there. She was an awesome looking snake and ate like a horse but my god, her temperament was off the charts. I still think the previous owner somehow traumatized her as I've never seen a snake so high strung.
As for bites, I've been bit by Rosey when she was a baby like over 4 years ago, Vicky bit me when i derped it up and forgot to wash my hands after handling their dinner lol, Dottie bit me the worst of anyone again from my derp with rodents and not washing hands. She tried to drag my finger into her hide to eat lol. I had to dunk her head with my finger half down her gullet into her bowl of water and then she let go, looked at me, adjusted her jaw and clamly crawled into her hide haha. No one else has bit me but they have taken shots like i mentioned during dinner time. Otherwise, i can reach in and calmly pet them and then pick them up.
And yeah Gina is a total lounger. Chris told me all the Pokigron stuff he got from Gus have just jaw dropping mellow personalities. Nothing like a lot of the stuff you see. He also told me that the Pokigron stuff he got from Gus doesnt seem to have the regurgitation problems that a lot of other surinames have. He said you can feed them on the large side once they are older and have been 'stretched; out a little lol. But he tends to feed very conservative as he wants smaller snakes to start with.

Re: Caesar progression thread.
Caesar is looking good there 😀 if I had to guess from the way he's filling out I'd say he's probably about adult size or so. He'll definitely keep growing, but I wouldn't imagine he's get to terribly much bigger. I could be wrong though lol 🤣 he's so pretty makes me want an albino tiger even more.

Thanks and hopefully you are right about the size lol. Kris told me he should top out around 7'. He isnt doing the power shedding he used to do as a baby. Still likes to power eat though haha.

I think all retics like power eating lol 😂 Anubis would probably shed more if he was getting bigger meals. He's getting smalls weakly at this point until my shipment of mediums comes in. Then he's probably going to explode in size lol.

Yeah i figured Caesar was going to explode when i jumped him up to jumbo rats but he seems to be holding steady so you might be right in that he's peaked on his size and now will just thicken up more and just slowly grow. We can hope lol. He is a handful when he doesnt want to be out. He just goes bonkers and climbs all over me and stretches out for his house and let me tell you, a 6.5' snake doing the horizontal stretch and then hooking something with his head and pulling is exciting haha.

I had a tiger a few years ago that I rehomed (long story) and he was about 11.5 foot and when he wanted to go somewhere I couldn't tell him no lol. I'm just really guessing based on Caesars headshape and the thickness of his neck. Looks like a lot of "adult" retics I've seen. That would be pretty awesome if he stayed around that size for you though, all the retic fun in a small package is one of the reason a kalatoa is in my future.

Yeah. He is definitely fun lol. I've heard from a lot of people that full super dwarf like Kalatoa tend to be more flighty. Kind of like I've heard the same with dwarf burms vs full size burms. I think the mainland blood plus tiger gene gives them more confidence. Like Caesar is definitely not shy and will shoot to the front of cage whenever something goes on. He does seem to do a weird thing though when i boop him on the head with his twisted paper towel. He will lay his head down on the floor like a kid being scolded. It's really weird but nice too as when he gets all worked up, i just boop his head with the twisted paper towel and he immediately lays down and sits there lol.
If Caesar gets to 11.5', i guess i can handle it as long as he doesnt get the girth like Rosey has lol. An 11.5' pop can thick snake can be handful i would think.

My boy was 36lbs and as big around as a 20oz bottle at least. He was a handful, sweet as can be, but a handful none the less. I've heard that too about the kalatoa stuff, but I'm confident I can handle it and I want to make high percentage SD cows. Making a cow retic that only gets 6-8 foot would be awesome if you ask me.

Yeah it's hard to believe. He was 2' when i got him back in Oct. Now he's 6.5' lol.
And he actually is a very good boy. Only ever opened his mouth and hissed once and that when everyone told to me hook train him. He HATED the hook. I ended up just using a twisted up paper towel that i boop on his head and snoot when he thinks its dinner time and its not. He then just lays down and i can pet him on the head or body or whatever. If he's cranky, he just swats my hand away with his body or tries to get back into his cage faster than i can pull him out haha.
He did pee outside the cage once and that was directly on my foot. He had to have been planning it as he squared his rump up right above my foot and let loose with the warm water waterfall. Then he looked at me and wandered off haha. They snakes dont have personality or intelligence but i swear Caesar knows what he is doing most of time. He does have his derp moments though but nothing like the retics you see coil up a smart phone or bite and coil up a garbage bag full of old substrate lol.

I ended up just using a twisted up paper towel that i boop on his head and snoot when he thinks its dinner time and its not. He then just lays down and i can pet him on the head or body or whatever. If he's cranky, he just swats my hand away with his body or tries to get back into his cage faster than i can pull him out haha.
He did pee outside the cage once and that was directly on my foot. He had to have been planning it as he squared his rump up right above my foot and let loose with the warm water waterfall. Then he looked at me and wandered off haha. They snakes dont have personality or intelligence but i swear Caesar knows what he is doing most of time. He does have his derp moments though but nothing like the retics you see coil up a smart phone or bite and coil up a garbage bag full of old substrate lol.
great to hear, he sounds like a very rewarding pet. now that i have three snakes it's incredible to recognize their unique personalities. every one truly is unique. i do envy you guys who keep the giants, but i'm content admiring from afar.
Yellow only ever hissed once and peed on me once when he was a baby, and i knew we were both just getting used to each other.

Lol, goofy Caesar strikes again. Was walking by and decided to see what everyone was up to. Guess dinner last night made Caesar happy. Caught him sleeping like this. Sorry for the blurriness but if i slid a door open, he would have probably popped up and came to the front to see what's going on.
