Caesar progression thread.

Yeah that would make me to nervous hahahaha. The Burms to big to crawl up things and the balls only damage their enclosures hahaha...
to have a snake that climbs lamps would have me freaked out about them breaking ribs when falling or smashing glass. Once my burm had his body wrapped around the bathroom towel rack on the wall connected himself over to the towel rack on the back of the door. He got out of the tub and had us locked out hahah. Took 10 min then he let go. Gotta love t... Cute though

They are never too big to crawl up stuff haha. Rosey tries to get on stuff she is clearly too big for like the torchier lamp and it usually ends with a mess lol. She climbed on a dresser that I used to put spare hides of all sizes, water bowls and Harley's king worms and phoenix worms on. Well needless to say, she knocked a bunch of hides off the dresser, 1 water bowl and almost the king worms which would have been a huge mess. Luckily, I heard the noise from all the hides and the 1 water bowl and ran over there only to see her, look at me and flick her tongue like 'what?' lol.

Ohhh yes they do crawl up dressers and counters and clear them right off hahahaha.. I havent had a Lamp problem though since I broke my Torch lamp about 10 years ago... I must have gone through 4 of those and i said the heck with them... Hahhah

Well I think I found the sweet spot for Caesar's food *knocks on wood*. Looking at him tonight and I still see a little lump from the large rat. So it seems a large rat lasts him about 3-4 days. He is more active though tonight and playing under the paper towels and shoved his acurite around some. Hopefully I can get 2 more days of quietness out of him on that rat lol. And I'll half fill a 20 oz water bottle for him to have a 'toy'.

Caesar is looking great. He's got nice patterns AND color. Wait until you need rabbits, if he's anything like River he'll go crazy for them. I think Caesar is about the same size River was when I first started offering rabbits, but he won't require them for awhile yet. But being on larges already he should be ready to make the jump later this year.

Yeah, I figure probably around summer time. If I remember right, the gal I get all my feeders from only has small rabbits which are the size I feed Rosey but considering Rosey eats large rats as well, I'm pretty sure Caesar could take a rabbit now but I'll stick with the large rats as right now, it looks like they are leaving a 3-4 day lump. I really don't think I'll have a hard time getting Caesar to eat anything lol. He took to chicks and quails really quick but they are small for him now. I was actually looking at Monster feeders that bcr mentioned. They have 0.5 lb piglets which should be weight wise about the same as a large rat but much more dense so would last Caesar probably at least 1.5 weeks, maybe 2 weeks if I'm lucky. I need to get a chest freezer first. Well actually I need to order a 3rd T8 next month for my dumerils and then everyone will be in AP cages. Then get the chest freezer and order some food and then start saving the pennies for this fall when I hopefully get a Pucallpa Peruvian BCC from either Vin Russo or Joel Diaz.

Omg it's been 3 days and 4 nights so far and Caesar is quiet as a church mouse after a large rat!!! /faint

Damn dude! He's looking great. May have to bump Phyllis up to a large and see if she chills out more between feedings

Thanks. I really do like how Caesar is coloring up. And yeah, a large rat has worked wonders here. He actually is inside his cool hide now sleeping but now I got Vicky causing trouble because I'm pushing her to 3 week feedings from 2 week feedings lol.

I thought about ordering some pigs from monster feeders but idk if I want to order 50 lbs of pig right now lol. If you ended up getting some for Caesar please keep us updated(:
