    Kevin is a looker. Very nice addition.

    I picked up this one today from a buddy at work. It was his son's who lost interest. $50 for the snake, terrarium, and accessories. Couldn't pass it up.

    I was also recently given a Dumeril from another guy at work that was afraid of it once it got some size.

    Wow,,,long time. Good to hear from you.

    What a nice deal you got.
    Sharp looking animal there.

    Kev is in shed. This is his first go at a shed here so we’ll see how he does.
    Apparently Bredli pythons do fine shedding in lower humidity. So 50% it is.

    They are an easy keep but I’m adjusting a bit to the slightly different conditions they require. Arid VS Tropical
    Keep the updates coming with your new one.

    Can’t get enough.
    She looks great. The boy is in blue and digesting a large rat.
    I’ll get some pictures up after he sheds and cleans out.

    The bump to large rats will spur some big growth.
    I’m hoping to increase his size over the summer and then switch to a schedule like I have the others on.

    I suppose I could post all updates and photos here as this is the original Morelia Bredli thread for me.

    At this point you've likely seen it all regarding Kevin.

    I have a couple of pictures I haven't posted yet so I'll add them here.

    My next photo shoot will be with a quality camera to at least make things a bit more interesting.

    For now here are a few strays from the I-phone.

    Morelia Bredli are quite arboreal.

    Whammo!!

    I suppose this is a progression thread so I'll keep it going.

    Not much to update so far. There has been a small surge in length and a more noticeable increase in girth/weight.

    Last night, after I got home from work, I decided to skip the workout and everything else and unwind.

    My wife and I made a "Pub Run" and supported one of our local breweries, and after we got home, I poured a cold one and enjoyed the beautiful night with the new boy. Kids, if you are under 21, don't try this at home unless you use Kool-Aid or HI-C or something LOL!

    I have 3 of these shots and they are all the same, except I used a flash for two of the three.

    I can't really see a difference with the flash or without.

    At the moment I'm feeding him more than I normally would. I know Nick keeps his males very small and its understandable seeing he has 300 of these I believe.

    In nature, males combat and I think the better fed, and larger males would be more dominant. I'll let Kev become a bit larger his first 6 months here and then pull back to a more natural feeding regime.

    He'll be 3 in September and he seems a tad small at this stage.

    That said I keep all of the animals here pretty lean and don't stuff them with food.

    Thanks for checking in!

    What up Kevin? Looking good dude!!!

    Fernie is getting long! She's filling out fine, definitely all muscle, but she's definitely adding length first. She was stretched out across her perch the other night and nearly covered it end to end. She's in a 3 foot Neodesha right now, so she's gotta be pushing 3 feet already. Her widest point is no thicker than my index finger though. I'm enjoying watching her growth. She'll be a year old July 8, so I feel like she's in great shape. I'm not sure yet when I'll upsize her prey, but I'm sure she'll hit a growth spurt when I do.

    Keep the updates coming. I'm loving all the Bredli and Carpet love on the forum lately.

    Oh....and a Rockstar Energy or a sweet tea for me please ��

    Sunning and stunning! I know you still have a liking for the Brisbane coastals but man if you didn’t pick a knockout of a Bredli. Probably about equal in terms of length and build except yours looks like a red bengal tiger!
