It has lots of supportive branches but it's not too high for them to get away from you. Get them outside when you can and enjoy the show!!
Thanks brother!!!
Honestly, I haven't found a thing about Morelia I don't love so far. They're so EASY (so far at least) on top of being such beautiful animals. I've handled adults so I know they can be impressive size and strength, but still easily handleable. I love how curious they are too.
That tree's gonna be great for a few summers, but they'll be too heavy for most of it in a few years. But I'mma take advantage while I can. It'll start blooming soon too, so they'll look great among the green leaves and white flowers.
It'll be cool to follow their growth and color changes each season when going back to the tree.
P.S. I hold YOU largely responsible for my Morelia addiction!!!! So thank you!!! Hahahhahahaha!!! At least I won't need meetings with this addiction!!! :rofl:

I saw the thread but assumed people were commenting on older photos. Not the case, I see these are pictures from today.
That's big looking jungle and a beautiful snake.
Morelia fever has taken hold.

I would like to see this fresh paint as well. Snakes are always so gorgeous after shed.

I don't think you'll have to wait long once he sheds ;)
Something tells me I'll have him outside first sunny day we get. 🌞
Re: Cornell, my Jungle Carpet Python
Cornell shed last night.... finally! Hahhahahaha. Maybe I was just impatient [emoji12]
I said I'd get him out for pics the first sunny day. Unfortunately today is overcast, cloudy and humid.
I was able to catch a quick break in the clouds, but the pics came out just ok. His yellows are popping a bit more than before and it looks like his blacks have more shimmer and iridescence.
He's doing well, mellowing out a little. Still hates the camera though! He struck at it three times. But he's now easy to get out of his enclosure and handles really well. Still a bit skittish, but improving.
I've actually ditched the hook with him too. I don't use it with Fernie either. I just let them get a sniff of the back of my hand and they come right out. Easy breezy.
Here's a few pics from today, I'll get more soon.

Re: Cornell, my Jungle Carpet Python
Wow his colors are really starting to pop! I can't wait to see him in the sun.
