    Felt froggy when spot cleaning and handling earlier and decided to give Charlotte a bigger tub. Lots more floor to stretch out and explore and a new set of perches with a deli cup water bowl holder from specialty enclosure designs. Can’t say enough good things about their products.

    Charlotte looks GREAT Crook! I like that setup too. Everything she needs. Do they make adult sized perches. I'd love to get a few. You should try a bag of the Reptile Prime bedding. I like it much better than aspen.

    Thanks ziggy! They make a plethora of different perch options, though I’m not sure they make one of this exact type in adult sizes? Check out the website, all sorts of cool stuff to get the cage decoration gears turning in your brain haha www.specialtyenclosuredesigns.com

    I like the look of coconut based beddings but for my climate aspen is easier for the time being. Humidity stays easily in the 50-70% range with just a water bowl and I’ll mist maybe once during shed if I feel like it. Haven’t had a bad shed since moving to AP cages and Mississippi even on paper substrate or aspen.

    Also easier for me to spot waste on lighter substrate with most of my critters being small/young atm. I’m not big on digging around for fecal land mines, though my Suriname boa mandates that by insisting on burying every bowel movement completely under the substrate.

    I’ll probably do coco bedding of some sort again in the future. I like to change things up occasionally to give the animals some sensory enrichment. Still have a few blocks of coco husk chips in the closet

    She's looking great!!!

    I know a few other people who use SED perches and other products who really like them as well.

    Next year (probably, we'll see how they've grown by then) I'm going to build a PVC jungle gym for the Morelia using the SED perches as a rough "template".
    I figure they'll love it for some outdoor enrichment and I'll love it for photos.

    First update in about a month. Just got a relatively accurate weight at 121grams up from 92 on arrival but there’s always the possibility of some waste being held back. A little shy in her tub but handles very well. Moved to rat fuzzies recently and will work with those until I think she can take an adult mouse or rat pup.

    This girl shed for the second time here yesterday and is absolutely smokin. Adamantly refuses to be still for a pic but I guess we’ll give her a pass.

    Cream of the crop.
    This snake is one of my favorites. Beautiful colors and pattern, active and growing larger in every picture.

    I’d love one of my own.

    She is gorgeous JMC. I just noticed the striping down her sides too. Beautiful critter.
