Ana...

[sxereturn]

Here is my big female carpet, Ana (short for Anaconda).

She's a big girl, haven't actually measured her, but she is between 10-12 feet. I threw her a 400 gram rat the other day and it took her literally less than a minute, including constriction.

 

[NCHERPS]

Nice snake!
How old is she?
Have you bred her yet? Bet she would knock out a ton of egg's!
You have to measure her, probably need 2 people min to help do it properly, let us know.

I think she is 12. I've only had her a month or so. She'll be bred this season, with my 8 foot male, he looks like a bloody worm next to her.

If I get a single egg out of her that hatches I'll be stoked

 

[Fuscus]

Nice animal - best of luck.
Any problems with moving a snake of that age, did she sulk or stress out in any way?
And how are you heating the smaller enclosures in the background?

 

[Parko]

She's a beauty allright, looks gentle too.
PS nice poster in the background.

She is massive, nice snake! I like your enclosures - nice & versatile.

 

[sxereturn]

The top enclosures aren't heated as yet, as the room is air conditioned. I've got heat pads here to wire up ready for them.

You can see a bluey in the middle enclosure keeping an eye on everything, and there's a smaller carpet asleep on a branch up top. In the very top enclosure is my new baby Scrubby

Oh yeah, that hide rock in the bottom big enclosure is solid rock

It's good when your dad is a builder with the right tools and skills for certain things...

 

[stockeh]

thasta an awsome looking snake mate, i am thinking of printing the picture and sticking it in my girls enclosure to inspire her.... do ya think it will work

 

[sxereturn]

Try steroids...

 

[stockeh]

now there is a thought...lol..

 

[sxereturn]

How big is she?

My girl is expensive to feed...she eats rabbits.

 

[stockeh]

she is only little juts over 5 ft, only on rats so the cost is low... i suppose that is an upside

 

[sxereturn]

Yeah, I have 4 other carpets. An 8 foot male, 5 foot unknown, and 2 little 3 footers, one female, one unknown.

Plus 2 scrubs, 2 macs, 2 Brown Trees, a diamond and a jungle, food = a lot.

 

[Bendragon]

MMMM - are they banded tree snakes ?

 

[snakehunter]

If you think thats a lot now, wait till those 2 scrubs get big!

 

[iluvsmyreptiles]

Yeah...my thoughts exactly.

 

[jake0476]

The food bill be be a fortune then ....

 

[Slateman]

Most beautifull snake SEX return. I was thinking to get one, but change mind after people comented that they are snapy nature.

 

[stockeh]

i totally disagree with that slatey, my coastal is the best natured snake in my collection, she is an absolute angel and i would reccomend a coastal to anyone
