Re: Rhino-Jack, 100% Kalatoa SD male retic
Recently he got upgraded from a 3' enclosure with swing doors to a t10 with sliding doors as a temporary till his big enclosure comes. He was not happy with the upgrade and was cramming his face between the door and litter dam. His face started to get swollen. The main difference in the enclosures was the 3' had a 3" vent. The t10 got more ventilation installed. Since then he has stopped trying to get out and his face swelling has gone down. Still no issues with being combative.

He is still non combative. The female still isn't near him. I haven't had much recent issue with him cramming his face between the doors and litter dam. I did have an issue where he started opening the doors on his own. I bought a lock for the doors so that has stopped. I'm still waiting on my two A35's from animal plastics that I ordered back in July so he is still in the T10 for now. He's still not tong fed or hook trained but I spent a lot of time with him when he was a baby. He's getting feed a varied diet maybe once every 2-3 weeks of a weaned rat, small rat, 2 chicks, or med coturnix quail. I recently tested all my pythons in my collection for nido just as a precautionary measure and am waiting for the results. From now on anything entering my collection will get tested upon arrival.
If you are considering one just think of them as having a constant one year old puppy or 3yo human child. They are smart and will test your patience and authority any chance they get.

I'm glad to hear he has backed off on re-arranging his nose. I hope he doesn't go back to it, some snakes are so stubborn. (I had a bull snake that liked to do that.)
Now to learn to pick the lock, eh?

Re: Rhino-Jack, 100% Kalatoa SD male retic
Just from my own experiences I'm starting to think this species (well at least the insular locals) seem to really crave more ventilation/air flow similar to subocs. I don't think the vents in most standard pvc cages are adequate for them.

His test came back negative for nido.
