[reptiledude987]

Im getting him a wife this weekend. Apparently last year she dropped 25 eggs.

[EL Ziggy]

Dude, you have some amazing animals!

[reptiledude987]

Thanks :) Still so many more I want. Dont think my collection will feel complete without a pair of brb. Im seriously considering a woma as well. I have more just need to update with another photo shoot.

[reptiledude987]

Just got confirmation that I'm picking up my female bredli tomorrow!!!
This is the picture that the guys sent me I will post more tomorrow when I introduced her to her hubby.

[SnoopySnake]

She's a looker. :)

[reptiledude987]

Ya im excited to get her home later tonight.

[reptiledude987]

Apparently shes pushing 9' I didnt think bredli would get that big. My jcp is that size which is normal for them. But sounds like a monster bredli.

[IW17]

I'm no expert but bredli python are a larger species normally than jungles. A nine foot Jungle is huge. A nine foot bredli is big, but nothing crazy huge.

[reptiledude987]

ya shes not 9 shes 7.5 maybe 8. Ill measure tonight and throw some pics up. But the jcp is a beast shes really thick too.

Great collection, really like the bredl and etb. Cant wait to see the female. I also like the Leo tort, I've got a soft spot for torts. Are you keeping him the "wet" method?

[reptiledude987]

ya she has a corner with moss and a shallow dish she can soak in as well. think she pretty much just poops in but its there if she wants it. dosent spend alot of time on the moss but again there if she wants it. Is that what you mean by wet method?

[Sublimeballs]

I mean keeping the humidity 80%+ in the enclosure. Usually accomplished through closed chamber enclosures or fogger/ mist sytems. The "wet" method prevents pyrimiding caused by chronic dehydration very common in captive torts. Pyramiding is a form of metabolic bone desease. All shell growth should be smooth spreading not vertical growth.

Are you soaking the tortoise?

[reptiledude987]

The breeder I bought her from told me humidity didnt need to be that high for her Its around 65%. Ive had her around 9 months and everything seems to be going well. No pyramiding and shes got a great appitite.

The End Of Pyramiding II-The Leopards | Tortoise Forum (http://www.tortoiseforum.org/threads/the-end-of-pyramiding-ii-the-leopards.18931/)

Check this out. There's a link to the first "end to pyramiding" thread that will shed more light on the subject aswell. I highly recommend this site to anyone with or interestd in a tortoise or turtle.

[reptiledude987]

Thats an awesome link. I will foreward that info to my ex as the tort was bought for our little guy and is currently with them but I always check up on it when I'm there.
