I have not had any problem snakes here. Maybe its luck or I'm somewhat dialed in. I'm not really sure .
Lol you got lucky. Caesar and Phyllis have pushed since day one. Sounds like Gene is starting to do it now too lol. Count your blessing while they last
And if i made Caesar wait 4 weeks for dinner, he would have a hamburger face. I made him wait like 2-3 weeks once to see what would happen. It wasnt pretty. He had cut pits, lips, chin, everything. And it was not a pretty sight.

Just snagged a loose tooth out of her face as she was finishing her guinea pig. I'm betting there are another couple stuck in her gums. Gonna take a look tomorrow or the day after, give her meal time to settle. This damn snake...

Lol dang man. When i was fixing Caesar's lip, i found out the hard way his teeth are all very secure......and very sharp. Caught my fingers on a couple of them. They are big, sharp and plentiful lol.

I don't know about Retics! You guys seem to be having a little too much fun with their dental issues.

Retics arent very shy and if they want to go somewhere, they arent afraid to use their head/face as a battering ram lol. Combine that with the incredible force behind their push and you would know. Caesar literally uses his whole upper half to push and stands up and shakes violently sometimes haha. It's rattled the cage doors on the cage stack.

Don't know that I'd say I'm having fun... learning a lot but fun? More stressful than anything lol. Gonna just slam her with food to push her into shed and see how it heals up. Breeder friend of mine had the same issue with one of his SD girls last month

Perfect size.
I hope Wallace tops off around her length and girth.
I love her pattern whether it be in shed or out. She's about the perfect retic IMO.

Thanks brother! She's a pretty impressively built animal. Easy 17+lbs now. Only complaint is the pushing but I think I can curb that with slightly smaller but more frequent meals with a bigger prey here and there. I'll keep us all posted when I get that feeding schedule figured out. Probably a colossal rat a week once I order more rodents. Think I'm going to try perfect prey or big cheese this time around.

Decided to go with paper eh? If you are going to use that. Check into this stuff. I know a lot of the boa breeders use. Me and Skip Frye had a chat about using it over substrate. This is for the 2 foot deep cages. Would have to change it for the 30 inch deep cages. https://www.uline.com/Product/Detail...Flute-24-x-250
