Picked her up a while back from a pretty bad home, supprisingly she was TAME, she always looks like shes coiled and ready to go but its just her being curious. Her feed response is impressive to say the least, but outside of that I hook trained her in 3 weeks, as soon as I involve the hook she just wants to leave the cage and explore.

I didn't originally intend to keep her, but as of today I'm 99% sure that I will. I had adds up to sell her for a few weeks but all I got were offers from morons, I refuse to let her end up in a situation similar to the one she came from.

I introduce to you, Relic, my newest pickup.

The space between those posts is 7 feet if I'm not mistaken and she can stretch across 2 of them and still have some body to go, I'll measure it when I get home tomorrow.

I second this. She looks sweet, but at the same time like she could rip your face off.

I know lol, normally shes fine when I feed her, but last night she struck almost 10 feet and wrapped the space heater that she hit dead on, she completely left her enclosure in that strike, not sure why she put so much into it but it was an incredible sight.
(hook training is really important to break that feed response) Yesterday was feeding day so I didn't involve it.

She is absolutely stunning! I do love scrubbies, and there's nothing quite like a tame barneck!

Tried to get a few macro shots of the scrub, photos from about 5 CM away, love the fact that I can get close to her without any defensive behavior at all.
