Morellia Madness

[WrongPython]

Kevin's looking great, Gio! So are the other Morelia on this thread, too -- I'm fairly confident that some sort of Morelia (or something Morelia-adjacent) will make it into this house eventually.

By chance, are any of Kevin's perches easily removable? My longi actually acts the same way sometimes when I try to take him out (though thankfully not so "pissy"), and I've found that he doesn't throw a fuss and is to content to come out when I pick him up on his perch. It's a trick that I picked up from listening to some Corallus/GTP podcasts that seems to work with semi-arboreals. Perhaps it would work with Kevin as well?

...though I imagine it might be quite something removing a snake of his size on his perch! I'm already having visions of me carrying a ~6 foot longi around the house on a tree branch...

Yes,

I can pull perches without much fuss, I just wasn't in the mood yesterday.

BUT,,,,,, I waited him out, and when I went down an hour later guess who was investigating his floor hide? I got him out immediately and we hung out for about 10 minutes.

He's a great display animal so I don't mind the perching constantly. He's probably more arboreal than the retic was here. And that retic was by far the most arboreal snake I've had.
