Epicrates striatus

[MM1]

Here are a few shots of Rudy from earlier this afternoon. I only handle him about once or twice a month now, but if he's out and about during water changes I'll tap him with a small stick (= no food forthcoming, just checking on ya) and let him crawl over my hand or settle on my arm. But nothing forced. It's hard to tell but he's about 6 feet long. In one shot you can see one of the plants I formed some cover with (he decided to urinate on it). Also visible is a small piece of shed that ripped off when I removed the shed from the enclosure. As I mentioned, I spritz some areas of the enclosure twice a week during the drier winter months, but during late spring through early fall this is normally not needed. There's a RHP over the area where that plant is. The white box in the back and the dowel provide opportunities to be closer or farther from the heat source and there's a big corner shaped water bowl on the opposite (cooler) side.
