Rambo Progression
I wanted a thread to dump photos as rambo grows, rather than continue to post to older unrelated threads. So heres one of rambo 104 days ago on the way home, vs tonight in the same deli cup. He was surprisingly okay with the whole ordeal.

Re: Rambo Progression
Very nice critter. He's growing well too!

Glad to see he's growing and doing well, Dxw! All of mine are growing like crazy, too. They are literally bigger every time I pick them up! How is his temperament?

That's a nice looking snake!

He's doing great! Now that he realizes i'm not going to harm him he's much calmer! Every once in a while he'll give me a little hiss as i pull him out but he went from being a nightmare to a handleable snake! I still don't quite trust him around my face though, haha.

Honestly, I don't trust any of my Bloods, Sumatrans or Borneos... They are definitely very moody and unpredictable and even my best behaved ones are sketchy acting. All of the males especially for some reason...

I think with continual handling and learning to read the individual animal the O/P will get things dialed in.
This is a beautiful snake and things will end up how they end up.
All the best, I like that snake!

Re: Rambo Progression
Just did a weigh in, Rambo is now at 867 grams, up from 567 grams when i weighed him on 7/22. Insane growth on this guy. We've also succesfully transitioned to f/t (thank goodness). Pretty stoked! hes getting one small rat every 7-9 days, and hasnt missed a meal. Since the first couple of weeks. Im wondering how much of his body weight is poo though, he hasnt gone for me since ive had him.

Re: Rambo Progression
Rambo got a housing upgrade! He now lives in the boaphile 221 i posted about in the caging forums.
Here he is checking out his new home

After 3 rounds of cleaning, bleach, soap, water, i finally got rambo set up in his new enclosure. And then sure enough i wake up to find he decided to take a huge dump- his first ever with me. He would wait until i was done with all that cleaning. Now i get to clean it again. And im going to take his weight here pretty soon to compare how much he weighs empty vs. full.
