Neph
As requested, some updated pics of Neph. They are not as good as I had hoped - she didn't want to do much other than soak in her bin.

Re: Neph
I keep f/t gazelles and dikdiks in the freezer. I used to let them graze in the back but the college girls in the dorm behind the house always snuck over and "liberated" them.
j/k
Neph is an integral part of our "retirement plan" for our larger breeder rats. She's a solid eater but growing much much slower than a retic/burm of the same age. Not that I am complaining in that regard!

Re: Neph
So.. would something bad happen to you if you stuck your hand in her tub and just grabbed her? Is she a hook girl?
-

Re: Neph
She's way too heavy for hooking so its hands all the way.
She lets you know if she wants you reaching for her or not! She has big loud lungs - the beefy bloods have nothing on her hiss. The hiss alone doesnt necessarily mean anything concrete, but when she cranks her head back at the same time . . . let's just say I'm not going to stress her more than I have to! Not to mountain a molehill - she's not the problem child you might think
I have that bin in her enclosure that acts like a hide - it's useful as one of the things that makes her nervous is the looming overtop and reaching in for her. That way I can just lift the whole bin out and into a temporary one while cleanign her cage etc.

Re: Neph
So how big is she now.. and how old?
-

Re: Neph
2.5 yrs and somewhere betwixt 8-9'.
The snake measurer software does not work well with her - I can't get high enough to get her all in the shot and once I start going for the overhead (barstool) she starts haulin' ash outta there.
