Scrub Python Enclosure Progress Thread

[wnateg]

She’ll definitely make use of all the branches you can give her! Makes it more difficult to remove them from the enclosure, but they do love to perch. I’ve found my boy perching on the smallest piece of chord coming off his day light. Would’ve thought it impossible, but I think he likes it because he knows I can’t pull him off it ��

Recently had to swap his 3 ft high enclosure for a 2 footer and I definitely notice decreased activity and more hiding. With 3 feet of height, he was perched 70-80% of the time. Hopefully, I’ll be able to upgrade him again soon so he can climb more.

Can’t wait to see your pretty girl in her new setup! Also, though her parents may have come been exported from Jayapura, she definitely looks Wamena from the photos. Once she settles, it might be interesting to experiment with slightly cooler temperatures and see if that affects her temperament at all. Wamenas are a race from the central highland mountains and generally experience cooler temps that change with the seasons, rather than year-round warmth like most of PNG.

That's good to know.

Based on this thread https://www.reptileforums.co.uk/foru...ocalities.html she does not look like the jayapura, but I don't know enough to say either way.

I bought a night vision camera that's coming tomorrow, so I can record if she's coming out of her hide, as I have not seen her out for a week or so. So if she doesn't calm down enough to eat, I'm not sure when I'll be able to move her, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
