Nah, had to leave for xmas and she was still in shed. I'm sure she shed and pooped and is raising hell until I get back Tuesday. Can't ever be easy planning trips around this animal

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.

Haha welcome to the world of pushing.
And yeah, Caesar does that stand up body shake thing too when he is pushing at the center brace. It shakes so hard that all the cage stack doors rattle like an earthquake.
As for a thermometer, get an Acurite. They are bullet proof. Caesar has pushed his into his water bowl twice and it stopped working but after i took the battery out and let it sit for a couple days to dry out, it worked again haha.
And here is what Caesar does after being 2 days late on dinner because of Christmas...he was not happy.....btw he is quiet in the pic because it was a few hours after his jumbo rat lol.

Phyllis shed while I was gone and apparently didn't completely lose her mind thankfully. Unfortunately I have to make an unexpected trip across the country for 6 more days now... I don't usually like to feed and immediately leave but Phyllis hasn't eaten in 16 days and will go completely bonkers if I don't feed her. Here's to hoping she doesn't lay in pee for 2-3 days. Anyway here she is

Thanks tiger! I'm guessing she could hit ten feet but her length has slowed down considerably and she has just been packing on mass. She's gained like 7lbs doubling her weight since early august. Only grown like half a foot in that time frame though. Maybe more but she's kinda hard to measure unless she crawls along the wall and I can mark it to measure afterwards

Dang Phyllis is big. I'm surprised she lasted 16 days with no food. Caesar did what i showed in the pic above after like 12 days lol. And i guess my SD ultra Ivory and moonglow boa projects are on hold until probably middle of next year. I pulled the trigger on a little 6 month old Biak GTP. Probably going to pick it up next week assuming it eats good and stuff.

Well she ate a huge guinea pig, went about 4 days and then went into shed for almost two weeks. That's the only way she goes past 7 days without losing her mind.
Congrats on the gtp! That's always been a dream snake of mine. Someday when I'm in a more permanent living situation
