    They sure can be. Total pains when they are young generally but great after their first year once you work with them typically.

    I'm in the process of moving things downstairs in the new house. The frogs were the first to move before the summer heat sets in and bakes the poor things.

    Just need to buy another batch of pvc enclosures here finish getting everything to match and have final adult sizing

    @Veet-88 where do you get your rodents from. I've been using rodentpro. Im just curious if there is any other places that have good deals.

    I'm over in Canada so we have different suppliers not sure if it would be worth the shipping across the border. But I order from....
    https://canadianmouseman.com/

    I just do larger orders then pick them up at the 2 expos we have here. I think my last order was 100 adult mice 100 weaned mice 16 small rats 20 chicks 50 hopper mice for 300 or so

    Now that it's getting warm enough the critters can get outside to really show off. Our children's python had just shed and damn was her iridescence in full show.

    Ahh didn't realize you were in Canada.
    Im really digging the children's python. My brother sent me a picture of a high white desert kingsnake and was like you should buy its cheap. Turned him down told him that wasn't a cheap price. I got both of my kings for under 100$. Im not paying 350 for a king

    Even in canadian pesos that's really expensive for a king. That's big box store pricing.
    Hopefully the viper eats. Anything that's been an issue for me i find feeding really late at night can help.
    It's been a bit of a shedothon over here in the past 24 hours. Childrens, spotted and now the olive have all shed. It's unreal how much the sheds stretch. The olive is a bit over 5' but the shed is damn near 7 the spotted and childrens are 3-3.5 and theds are bolth 4'

    I've tried night feeding him early mornings afternoons. Hard to pin point a good time. Since he rarely eats to begin with.
