I was at the reptile expo here in October and saw this little girl and just couldn’t say no and dropped a deposit on her and yesterday was her first full day in my care! She (probed by the store’s owner, I trust this guy fully when it comes to reptiles) is estimated to be a yearling Manokwari Green Tree Python! Unfortunately she is wild caught as with most Green Trees up here in western Canada but I’m really hoping that will change someday. From what I’ve been told she’s acclimated to captivity incredibly well! She has no issues being handled, is readily eating F/T mice and is healthy as far as we could tell but I’m still going to get her checked out by a vet once she’s settled.
I’ve got all her temps and humidity in the proper areas and my sole concern for now is her loose skin flaps, she was in a setup with a perch that was considerably larger than her and I’ve read that could be the cause, I also gave her a short soak when she got home in case she was dehydrated and I still haven’t seen her drink but aside from that she seems to be doing great but I’d love your guys’ input.
