In that viv she has three hides, one hanging vine, 6smaller pieces of plant i cut from one giant hanging one lol, and one lunchbox with the lid off for water.
So happy with it!!! She was really outgrowing that old tub!

Joe, I'm sure you'll have no complaints from Ruby about her new accommodation!!

Nice Job

Hey Joe. The set up looks good, I bet she won't know herself now :)

Thanks Guys!!!! :) Shes loving it!!! And not only that, but she has been very active and ate for me last night !!! SO HAPPY!!

Good stuff Joe...Always good whenever a feed has taken place...

Definitely is!!!! She struck very violently....kind of scared me to be honest for such a little snake!!! So i had to give her a second Fuzzy.....going to have to up the food size because she was patrolling the viv possibly looking for a third? Shes an '09 on Medium Fuzzies what Should she be on if shes looking for so much?Food sizes baffle me!

Well look Joe, some profess that the food size should be no greater than the thickest part of the snakes girth...it's not a bad rule of thumb...personally I feed most of my snakes thawed rodents that are slightly larger than that...if the food item is far too large, the snake, if hungry, will get so far then stop and reject it.

Sounds to me like you might want to upgrade to something a little bigger, try a small or even medium mouse, [small first] Ruby will probably surprise you

Remember not to judge the size of food in relation to Ruby's head or neck but rather her midriff and you'll not go far wrong...let us know how you get on

Thanks Tony i'll bring her in and try out a few things and let ye know :)

OK so food size sorted out and i added a nice climbing frame to the viv which she uses every night and basks under her lovely red lamp!

looks nice and cozy in there, joe! And she's a beautiful royal

Thanks Lisa!!! :) Shes gorgeous! and shes quie happy in there but i have to take her out daily because she hasn't got proper floor space to stretch out, no matter new viv for her soon anyways!
