I'm waiting to finish the initial build -- ie. the cage itself, its stand, and the foliage and wood accents -- before ordering the Universal Rocks decor and lights. Part of me is also considering switching out the hot hide rock for one of those slate stacks and/or an across-the-cage pole perch. Hmmm.

    I can't believe this little python is real sometimes. So beautiful!

    Pandora's new cage arrived last week, and now both it and its rolling stand are assembled. I'm still waiting on a few more things to arrive, but Pandora should be able to move in soon!

    Re: Pandora's Thread





    Pandora's put on a lot of growth since she's come home. She's sitting pretty at 111g and 2'8" now ahead of winter turn-down. Day-old quail have been a relished new addition to the diet for her, and she's about ready for small mice now.

    Today was actually a big day for her, as she got bumped her up to her new 4'x2'x2'! There's plenty of space for her to strech out now, along with plenty of perching and hiding places. A halogen lamp provides the daytime basking spot while a CHE guarantees ambients. The halogen comes on and goes off an hour before and after the daytime LEDs, so there's a cool sunrise/sunset effect. Eventually I'll settle upon a UV lamp to add that will come on during peak daylight hours. All in all, that means there will be three different daytime light intensities with this setup. Let's see if this talk of light-based heating lives up to the hype!

    She's looking gorgeous, as is her new home set-up.

    Photographing growing carpets can be funny. They look so small curling up in your hand... but then...

    Same goes for rat snakes- they look small when coiled up, & so big when they unwind. That's because "snakes are sneaky".

    Good looking carpet btw.

    Long and graceful.

    Nice progress shot of a real beauty.

    This is one thing of many, I really enjoy about the species.

    You can get an 8-9 footer that weighs less than a 6 foot boa.

    Thanks for the update.

    Re: Pandora's Thread

    Happy (slightly belated) first Gotcha Day to Pandora! She's actually deep in blue at the moment, so have some pics from last week.

    Pandora loooves that heat lamp of hers!

    She had a perfect shed the other week and had a good-sized meal soon after. It's looking like she's about to go through another growth spurt, so the bump up in feeder size was greatly appreciated.

    She's looking awesome, as is "her place". Can't blame her for loving her heat lamp either.
