    Partially set up. He has been doing very well in his smaller cage. I WON"T keep him there, but he never pushes or causes any issues. I typically feed him every 3 weeks.

    I have the whole thing in position but need to finish the setup and installation of certain items.

    I'll be certain to post when I have everything in place.

    My wife and I have been very, very active with one another and our kids. I just need a week of quiet to get things into gear.

    The boy is awesome though. 1 year 6 months.

    Just saw your new little one.

    Very pretty!

    I'm surprised Wallace is almost the size of Caesar, but Caesar is slowing in growth and probably getting thicker. Wallace is still fairly lean, but somewhat long.

    I'm expecting he'll look like JM's gal when he fills out.

    Yeah Caesar isn't really putting on the length too much but he has definitely filled out. He is easily a 2 handed snake now and even then usually his head and tail hang off my arms. And thanks, I'm pretty excited about the GTP as I've never had one.

    The coloring just gets better with age. Eyes, pattern and iridescence all looking good!

    This is the latest picture of Wallace which looks pretty similar to the last picture I posted of him. At 1 year 8 months of age he's roughly 7 feet long and relatively lean.

    He's fed approximately every 3 weeks to once a month. He's never pushed a day in his life. I couldn't ask for a better retic as he fits in with the other calm snakes here. Although Wallace will display some spunk at times and can be a bit difficult to remove from his smaller cage, he should enjoy the larger sized palace I'm working on for him.

    I'm not on the boards much these days, but I will update when I have time.

    I also check in to see my fellow SD/Dwarf keepers and their animal's progress as we acquired them at roughly the same time.

    Be well and thanks for looking!

    Finally making a move on the "super cage".

    I still have work to do, but I've assembled the units, screwed in the backgrounds and caulked the seams.

    Next comes the perch placement and assembly. After that I'll join the two units together. It's essentially two separate cages that bolt together. The nice thing about that is I can quickly break down a large unit (6' x 30" x 2") into two 3 foot units and move it about.

    I'm trying something a bit different this go-round. I'm going to use a multiple color, LED light strip. It will allow me to have white/daylight conditions and the blue light night conditions I use.

    I have some pretty extensive decor prep that I'll work into the cage, so the final product will not be ready to show for a bit.

    So far this is what's up.
