Sounds exactly like how Phyllis pushes. It's really almost disturbing at times to see the force she puts into it .Originally Posted by Stearns84
Wow that face... Gene has become a pusher, he makes it to day 5 before he starts to push at the bottom of his enclosure. Weird because with his nose the floor his body is a good 7" up and just shakes with force. I'll tap him with the paper towel roll and crack the door. He stops and rests his head. But it's strictly a food push.
I'd love for us all to take a picture of our snakes again against a common product for size comparisons. Gene just hit 8', my apartmwnt kitchen is exactly 8' and his tail still hit the carpet. He has gained substantial girth too. Last time I weighed him he was at 11.1 lbs.
On a different note Gene pissed on yet another thermometer and broke it. So I bought a small one today and put a small amount of Velcro on it to stick it to his skyhide. I am not one to put tape on or in his enclosure but he can't reach this so I think we'll be ok.

I think I've got pics of Phyllis next to or under an RBI xl hide on here. She just got her jumbo hides the other day and is sleeping next to them rather than in them... 🤷
I'm not one for tape in a cage either but 3M makes some seriously intense Velcro with adhesive backing that I can barely peel of the cage walls, and I've got finger nails and putty knives to work with hah! They've held up to high humidity and warm temps in all my cages for over a year and a half with absolutely zero issue. I've got them installed just above the cage floor or shelf in Phyllis's cage and have yet to have one pissed on. I keep the unit on the cool side and have the probes fed through a hole drilled in the vents and keep the probed end on the warm side.
