Gene finally has a thread!

[CALM Pythons]

I cut a piece of foam insulation board in the shape of a "U" and slid it into the inside track and closed the outside door so mine couldn't push on that side with the space. It goes up the center where glass overlaps, across the bottom and up the right side. It helped cushion the pushing at least lol.

I clean his enclosure every single day, this was 10 minutes after he went back in. Damn you and your pushing Gene!

I keep the snakes enclosures in the living room because of spacr requirements. I kept hearing an obnoxious noise the other night after smartthings turned off the lights at 10:30pm. It was like Styrofoam, all my hairs stood on edge. I couldn't figure out the noise, it was Gene, he is almost 13 lbs and his weight was dragging the mulch around. It drives me nuts!

Hahah Phyllis does the same thing! They get freaking noisy once they break that 10-12lb mark

Gene getting ready to enter shed. Always so calm when he's out.

Well someone is salty as sh1t. Gene has been slowly going in shed for what feels like werks. Wednesday Gene had mulch in his lip from pushing. So this time I decided to leave him in his enclosure while I wrestled to get it out. He knocked over the entire water dish so humidity is super high. Fast forward to Saturday I fed him his jumbo rat and he was happy. I usually leave him alone until Monday, but I wanted to wipe off the condensation off the glass. Gene struck at his branch, then the glass. I tapped him twice with an empty paper towel roll and he got pissed and shoved his head in his hide.

This is today, so it's the "I'm salty but sorry face."

Haha yeah Caesar was pretty freakin pissed when i had to wrestle his lip off his tooth. He was bent with me for about 3 or 4 days. He wouldnt greet me, sat in his hide, when i went to pet him, he would turn his head around and go inside his hide. When he was out and i would pet him, he would go away from me. It was clear he was pissed lol. But after the 3-4 days, he was fine and back to greeting me, coming over to me and sitting there while i pet him, being his usual goofy self. Never have had him strike at anything though. But then again, Rosey was an angel for 5+ years until i scared her a week ago or so and she latched onto my forearm and then was all defensive until i reached in and dragged her out. Then she was fine once she knew it was me lol.

Been so busy lately that I haven't been home alot. Been keeping an eye on Gene with the living room camera, I thiught he had shed because he was moving around a lot. Got home and he still looks miserable in shed.
