here is one Ihad set up for a green anaconda a few years ago. Every time I had her out she would climb on this ball I had in the room so I gave it to her. So what kind of snake do you have hiding in there?

its empty, just the two dinos enjoying the space. The rock panel is something I make for my enclosures. Mold making and resin casting process like the zoo and animal park folks use.

Yeah..that's a problem Brett. Not only do you loose a perfectly good Tri-ker but the Rex could get injured with those horns. I went to DC and collected a few excess politicians to feed my Rex. They really don't do anything of substance and no one will miss them. Besides, they're thinking of giving themselves a pay raise and this is a good way to stop it. Just feed them one at a time and they are harmless. It's just when they are in multipules they can confuse the Rex with retoric, making him go off feed and feel disgusted about the whole process. The only problem was that the Rex's feces was really foul smelling after eating a few and the EPA got on my case for not properly disposing of Toxic waste.

Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it.

LMAO, yeah there are a few "officials" out here on the left coast I wouldnt mind feeding to this sucker. To have a raptor on a leash like a trained watch dog that I could carry with me in the field. Get harassed by someone and just let the little beasty have lunch.

Although I have no hard data to prove it, I submit feeding any Western (esp Cali) politico to any reptile is hazardous to the reptile regardless if the prey item is alive or frozen-thawed. Which is actually good, because in many cases, it is virtually impossible to determine that status anyway...

Judging from the picture. I would switch over to rubber. Mine won't touch plastic.

PS That made no sense but that was a fun picture.
I forgot to add, scent it with a politician (if you can find one that smells).
