Beautiful!! Looks very inquisitive. how long is it? he or she?

Is that the "he" that was going to shed?

Yup- that would be him!

He's about 7' now, and that's his MO- ALWAYS heading up, surveying the area... awesome to watch!

Nah- just have the lone male, and seeing that I haven't tried my hand at breeding yet, that species might not be the best one to start off with! (I've heard they are one of the more difficult species to breed)

However, if there's anybody out there in the Austin area with a lone female, let's talk in a year or two!

Why in a year or two? your boy is ready now!!

My female and smaller male are about 8'. My big male is around 11. Sadly, I lost my big female last year to gout, and about a month later, Reptiles mag did an article on gout in reptiles. It's much more common thsn I thought. I've had some breeding activity this season, though.
