Hard to stop at 1, or 2,or 3, or 4, etc!

So many cool animals out there. So many colors, patterns, sizes, shapes, requirements, etc.

Pat is Kool and the Gang.

You have to get a little red one !!

I had a red and yellow one. The yellow started changing first, the red also took longer to finish turning green.

Get a red one, we need 2 threads like this one

You need an ETB that's the next step to an arboreal addiction!

I hate you John! I keep telling Kendall I need a GTP. She politely points out we are house shopping, and Gene needs a 6' or 8' enclosure. So I think that's her way of saying no.

I know lol. I have some rather larger bills that need to be taken care of atm but come summer, i should have a little disposable income which maybe i can sneak into a little red neo

You know i thought about that but after looking at them, there is just something about their head size/shape that turns me off. I'm normally a boa guy which is why i actually looked at an ETB first but ended up with a GTP. Probably just stick to another one and get a little red neo Sorong or Manokwari mix, something that will have a good amount of blue as I've been told red neos tend to blue up a lot more than yellow neos.

Lol. Just tell her they dont take up much room so the costs would be pretty minimal. And i thought Gene had a 6 foot cage already? If not, i would for sure say go for an 8 foot cage. If i had to do it over, i would get Caesar an 8 footer and be done with it. Luckily, i can still use the 6 footer for Gina once i end up sizing Caesar up.

About the perch turning issue. You have those zip tie holders so you should be able to etch the end of one side of the dowel then thread a decent sized zip tie straight down )or through the side depending on if you cut the holder) to keep it from spinning. No need to close the zip tie just drop it straight down with the "head" on top. This way you can still remove the dowel but it should be enough to stop rotation.

If you want to get more precise you can drill a hole into the dowel (at a distance from the end so it doesn't splinter) and thread a zip tie through the holder and dowel while leaving the zip tie open so you can remove the dowel. If you don't remove the dowel just close the zip tie to make it even more secure.

Well i got it all squared away. I just had to go crazy with the dremel and grind out 3 flat sides and it worked. I had to take Pat out to do it and was worried this might be end bad. Was actually effortless. Pat was sleeping on his plant so i quietly unclipped the plant and moved it. Pat work up and looked at me and sat there while i put him and the whole plant in his old tub. I then went about redoing the whole cage. When i went to put Pat back, he seemed more curious about checking out my hand over going into the cage. I finally coaxed him off his plant onto the plant in the cage. He then explored a little bit and decided to go to sleep on a perch behind a Prayer Plant leaf. I was able to add his old Pothos back in the cage too. So now he has his Prayer and Pothos plants, a large water bowl, 2 suspended water dishes, 5.0 UVB light and daylight light. Here he is when i finally coaxed him onto the plant in his cage. He is getting so big. I had to upgrade him to 1/2 inch oak dowels. Hard to believe he is about 1/2 inch thick now except his neck which is still skinny lol.

That's exactly what I thought to myself. I was just to lazy to type it
