How have you been enjoying the Morelia experience since acquiring her? Keep up the good work and share more updates on her when you can!

Re: Morellia Madness
Hi! Thank you for the response! I’ve loved having her and watching her behaviors. I put a ladder in her enclosure (one made for parrots, but baked to be snake safe) and she uses it all the time. When she is hungry she hangs on the ladder, and takes her food from bellow. She’s great with being handled and overall been fun. The neuro issues haven’t worsened, she’s just a little more clumsy than the average snake

Looking good.
I think that size seems perfect for that age.

Re: Morellia Madness
The whole crew's looking great, Ziggy! Glad to see your favorite human is able to join in on the fun, too. [emoji4]
We finally have some clear air again in my neck of the woods. Took Pandora out for a little time in the sun and she seems blissed out! [emoji38] Got a neat close-up of some on her back-half scales while I was at it.

Re: Morellia Madness
Last few weeks before the fall semester starts, probably going to continue spamming y’all with pictures until I’m slammed with work again.
Sally Jo has really been taking advantage of all the arboreal features in the new enclosure. Found her discreetly perched under her ficus branch when I did check ins this morning.

Re: Morellia Madness
Sally Jo's looking good! Glad to see that your carpets are loving their cage layouts and all of their arboreal furniture. I really like the cage layouts you have for them -- enough features to keep the snakes enriched and occupied, but simple enough to clean easily.

Thank you, WrongPython! For as shy and terrestrial as Sally Jo seemed to be in her last enclosure she’s really broken out of her shell in her forever home. Have yet to find her using floor hides, but she’s in the sky hide pretty much all day during daylight hours.
I have ideas for some changes as she grows, but will still be keeping it simple to clean, enriching for the critters, and easy on the eyes.

I've noticed a somewhat similar trend with Kuzco. He's still the shiest and most independent snake here, but I've been seeing more of him ever since I offered him perches and artificial plants. It'll be interesting to see how Pandora's behavior changes when she moves into her new digs. No branch-style perching in the design as of yet -- though I've designed things in a way I can add it in the future -- but there's plenty of other climbing opportunities for her.
On a side note: I was able to make my way out to an expo recently, I really liked some of the coastal tigers I saw at a certain breeder's table. ;) If it wasn't for the fact that I started my remaining caging upgrades and properly internalized the costs, the process of carpet #2 might have started up. Might have to feel things out again after the snakes are screened and caging upgrades are done. An Aussie carpet would round out the group quite nicely.

Definitely excited to see the new enclosures soon! Always a fun time setting up new cages.
Get yourself a coastal and I’ll get that male Argentine hah! You will definitely not be disappointed. Whose table were you scoping out? Rogue/Owen? Jason Baylin?

Yeah, new cage time is always fun! At least for the snakes and I. Pretty sure my wallet isn't having as fun of a time right now. :P
It was Owen's table. He brought some of his 2021 carpets that were ready to go but not up on his website yet, along with a few older juveniles he still has. Very nice guy, exactly the same in person as he is on MPR, will definitely be reaching out to him if/when I feel ready for a tiger carpet.
Good luck making a decision on the BCO thing! Feel free to send me a PM if you're serious -- some of my other Boa Friends have been hitting up the BCO market lately, so I may be able to get word on others' experiences with breeders.

This Brisbane Coastal Carpet is the half sibling to JM's male.
Gem had a rat pup and a chick yesterday.

Honestly, feeding pictures aren't my favorites but with this fire cracker, it is the easiest way to capture her image.

Pandora shed the other night and is looking fantastic!
Unlike my boas and y'all's carpets, she doesn't seem to be a fan of multiple prey items at once. I think I'll have to space them apart a few nights when it's time to feed multiples.

We have hybrids on this thread, so I would say, bring it on! However, others' may have different views.
My attitude is the more diverse we can make BP.net, the better. Not suggesting we change the name of the site or anything :), but discussing more species and having more hobbyists share can only be good for the site and the hobby, IMO.
On that point, the more we can show people different Morelia, the better. I think many people still don't know much about them and like other species who are not as diverse in the hobby, may have misconceptions.

I was not talking about breading them together. You could and I think some people have. Both GTP and carpets share the Morelia family.

I think you misunderstood. We have other users who have hybrid - CP and GTP, etc. on this thread already.
My point was it's a Morelia thread - GTP's included. So go ahead and share.

Just placed a hold on this baby (picture credit to the breeder on MorphMarket). She is a little over a year old.

Gem shed recently.
This may be one of the last gloved handling sessions. She usually strikes the glove and anything else around. This day was different. Her increase in size and the fact she's been here a while seems to be improving her demeanor.
Love the Brissy natural colors and pattern.
