It appears that you are doing a great job, and providing the correct environment for you little one. Probably the original owners error which labeled a perfectly good snake as a problem feeder. Just keep handling her and possibly try to over stimulate her every now and then. By this I mean touch sensitive areas that produce strikes (tail, neck) and she will get used to it really quick. Put in the bite time while she is small and you'll be much happier later. Jungles are awesome snakes and much more shall I say exciting than most colubrids and some pythons. As for caging I would think a ten could last her till she's one on a modest feeding schedule. You could try to switch her to a larger enclosure by either placing her 10 inside the larger one, or just switching and watching very closely for any signs of stress...ie excessive hiding, non-feeding. ----- http://www.moreliapythons.com
