"...does it bite?"

She looks very lovely indeed! What size is she? What size is that viv? The reason I ask is because I'm planning some viv builds at the moment.

it's 27" deep 25"wide and high 25" i bought 2 of them they where 40 each not supper pretty yet but they work..and shes a big girl id say 8 feet and 40lbs

Isn't that a little small for her?

well she was living in a rubbermaid container when i got hae she couldnt move a round..i have a bigger cage for her but she wont go into it.... so my hubby is bulding her a new one..she likes the cage shes in now she picked it and refuses to leave it at this point so i think shes happy its probly bigger than im thinking because she has room...not a lot but more than she has so.. im not trying to rush her..just letting her settle in..she has like crease marks in her scales for lack of being able to move around and lossing weight also i think..check out the first pic agine shes not packedin that cage..

If she is actually 8 foot, then a vivarium a little over 2' cubed is WAY too small for her. The pictures aren't working any more, so I can't look at them.
