I wish I took pictures of a few creams we had. They were just mushy. Like body love handles. I did not feed them for 2 months. But in my opinion too, a much larger cage is almost always needed. I think we had them in 15 gallons. Snakes want to roam, climb, explore. Most of us, and ME for sure, use far to small of cages, out of convenience. And space issues for breeding racks.

I sit embarrassed as I type this, I have a 4' corn in a 40" long, 6" tall tub when I have 2 open 75 gallon tanks I'd like to make homes for some lizards.

I'm NOT trying to slam anyone, as I'm right there too. I just think we've gotten in a mode of space efficiency at the cost of most herps we keep.

Just trying to be honest.
