Pat the baby biak green tree python

[Sauzo]

Pat is pretty laid back. About the only time he really moves when I'm cleaning his cage is if i bump his perch. Then he wakes up and usually follows my hand flicking his tongue at it for a little bit, then gets bored of it and curls back up lol. I havent tried removing him and the perch yet. I'll wait until he puts on some size. No rush for me as i never bought him with the intention of having an animal to 'play' with. I got fat Caesar and the boas if i want something to drag around and bother lol.

Lol you probably wouldnt have much fun. Most of them are pretty quiet during the day. The only ones during the day that greet me are Harley my beardie and Caesar. Come night, you would be entertained. Like i said, Pat is a ball of fury come night. That little guy just doesnt quit. And even more surprising last night, he was tearing it up after eating his small fuzzy mouse on Sunday. Weird to see him so active 1 day after eating. The fuzzy was pretty small though. I weighed it and it weighed 3 or 4 grams, cant remember now haha. But it looked pretty small even after he ate it.

I didn't handle mine much at all, but I like all of them to be used to regular "minimal" handling for maintenance and such. This way, if you ever HAVE to handle due to emergencies or health issues, it isn't quite as stressful to the animal.

Gtp's are still an awesome animal to own, even if its not one usually "played" with. They are just striking animals, esp. in a beautiful display setup

Yeah, i plan on working with him once he gets bigger and puts on some girth. I just dont want to handle such a small little guy and have him freak out and fall and hurt himself. I think he is getting used to me though as i can reach in pretty darn close to him and the only thing he does is flick his tongue and come close to my hand and then after a min, he just backs up and coils back up. I've been waiting for that bite but he hasnt done it and honestly doesnt even seem that concerned about me lol. Now with his mouse, that different.

And yeah, i cant wait for him to get bigger. I might have to break down this summer and get his AP A20 so i can deck it out in plants and perches. I need to figure out a way to mount a UVB tube in there without danger to the snake or talking to Ali about maybe cutting something like a 2 or 3 inch wide 3 ft long hole in the top and screening it and then I'll see if my local plastic shop can cut me a piece of thick acrylic that i can mount with hinges to create a closing top over the UVB tubes so it holds in humidity still but gives me screening between the snake and the light fixture.

Planning it all out is half the fun !!!

Can you imagine a built in really big enclosure, all decked out with gorgeous greenery, vines and whatnot ? To where it looks like a big, living picture ? I think that would be amazing !!!

Well when i saw the newest AP cage which is 8x4x4. thats the first thing that popped into my head. Going with a full on mini jungle in my living room with Pat wandering around in there. But then i came back to reality and figured a 4x2x3 is more realistic lol.

Lol Pat powered down a 6 gram fuzzy mouse last night. That definitely filled him up as he is now sleeping under his heater today. Look at the chub on that boy after his meal haha.
