He looks lovely :D One suggestion for a climbing item, you cannot go wrong with a Trixie shelter, corns just seem to love them! http://www.amazon.co.uk/Trixie-Natural-Living-Shelter-30/dp/B000WFCFNI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1369917934&sr=8-1&keywords=trixie+shelter Also there is the usual Dunelm Mill for fake plants etc ;)

Well Nevis shed tonight and is out again either trying to find a place to escape or looking for his dinner :)
Lisa west lothian Posted - 28/05/2013 : 14:46:44
Thanks for that Kellog really helpful thank you xx
Kellog Posted - 28/05/2013 : 13:22:51
You can either buy a 'branch' from a pet shop that is used for parrots etc, or you can find a branch and treat it ready for Nevis' viv. Lots of people use Dunelm Mill for their 'plants', like this Ivy garland and Ivy spray .

Hope that helps .

Was looking at some of the pics on here last night of some of the other people's set ups I thought his looked quite busy till I seen everyone else's so got a few ideas been looking for a branch for hm for ages but can't seem to find them and wasn't sure if artificial plants were ok to put in or not x
Kellog Posted - 28/05/2013 : 10:01:22
Leave it for a week before you try to feed him again, or until he has shed....a lot of snakes, mine included, don't eat when they are 'blue'.

It would be great to get a branch in his viv, my snakes love to climb, and he may appreciate a bit more greenery as well....that's if you want to spoil him of course !

Would like to get him something to climb on as he likes a explore round all the viv he never ate yesterday so waiting on the shed coming then will try again he out looking for food this morning again but will leave him another few days see how he goes xx
Kellog Posted - 28/05/2013 : 09:49:49
That's a lovely pic of him laid out Lisa, and he's got a great viv set-up now as well . He's a lucky boy!

Lovely boy, and what a great name for him
Lisa west lothian Posted - 27/05/2013 : 17:51:51
Thanks to the advice on here we picked up a couple of "rubs" yesterday, and have stopped feeding Nevis in his viv. Measured him also today and he is 54 inches long, will weigh him when the digital scales are delivered. Some more pics:

It would be great for the older children to have the experience of getting a little one, especially as they are used to handling Nevis so should be able to cope with a faster, smaller version . They must have been fairly young when he was.

As for little ones escaping, hopefully you'll have learnt from Nevis' escapades about how to prevent it happening....as much as you ever can !
