Natural Scrub python home, What do you think?

[elise_x]

Hiya,

This is my Scrub python's home, the water dish did get filled up before my Scrub went in

The substrate, a mixture of loose coir &beech chips(would luck better with orchid bark) with a variety of moss &wood pieces

Fix branch into place &place in water bowl

Put a fake plant in

Then introduce the new owner

Any advice, tips or questions welcome

regards, elise x

start saving your money to buy him/her a much large enclouser lol

 

[snakeluvver]

Lol if only they stayed that size. Snakes grown pretty quickly so I'm mot sure if that enclosure will last long...

Now x that by 100

By the looks of it he's already developed the typical scrubbie temperament.
Just a heads up in case you don't know scrubbie's get huge and are generally fairly snappy.

Very nice enclosure though .

Thats not a bad looking setup, normally not a fan of fake plants but they seem to work well in this case, good work

 

[crikey]

oh yer nice scrubby bye the way

 

[ryanrumler]

you need a double garage by the time hes finished growing aha

Build a big shed and make it look as natural as this, then its impressive! No just kidding this is a great job it looks unreal.

I'm not the kind to make judgements Elise_X but I must admit some concerns about your choice of python. I hope you've done you research.
That being said your set-up looks attractive and your python is beautiful.

 

[Chicken]

Im sure when he purchased the python he understood the size it grows to and how to look after it

 

[Dragonwolf]

You're correct Reptilerookie.

Elise_X - my apologies, I didn't look at your profile first. My mistake.

Hiya,

I did plenty of research before getting him and I understand exactly what I've gotten in to lol

He is my little baby

I am hoping to get him quite tame with regular handling

looks great, natural, but you'll have to throw most of it out the fisrt time it urates, you might try to find a better substrate for the enclosure floor, still keep all the fake plants that you can easily clean, just something to think about, if you only have 1 python the upkeep is easy. becomes a hassle when you have a few snakes. beautiful scubby btw...

 

[hornet]

So what species is this guy?

 

[elise_x]

Hiya,

He has been in there a couple of weeks but its fine with the mess and quite simple to clean with bio-active substrate

He is a morelia amethystina

I've heard it's not so much when they're young that you have to worry. More when they get big and then decide one day they no longer like you. I hope this doesn't happen for you though. He's a beautiful snake
