| Thanks I've got this female in March 1999, right after she was born. She is now only about 2' long. She should be 4' - 5'. I don't know what the problem is. She eats good. | |

| There are two "forms/lines" of Bitis rhinoceros in collections. We also have animals, which are very big, but also pair, which is over 6 years old, and just approx. 80 cm in length... We put them together a while ago, so we will see if there is any result from them.... | |

| I got this female from Mitch (Diamond Reptiles). He said he knew of no siblings or others from that line that stayed that small. I really like her. i've had a few that weren't nearly as colorful as her. | |

| So, maybe it's a genetic-thing ? I wouldn't know: I'm not a scientist...  Also a compliment to your enclosure's; from what I can see, it's really looking nice !  (I also saw the Naja cage's) Gr., Pascal. | |

| Pascal,
Are you complimenting the cage my Gaboon is in? I keep my snakes in very simple cages. Big rubbermaid containers, Neodesha, and Vision cages.
That is a photo booth my buddy has, so he and Jerry, can take those nice pics. He has different kinds of rocks, sand, pine needles, bark, pebbles size stone, and he cuts a fresh tree branches from his yard, all so he can make more natural settings for the pics.
I'm making a nice cage for my Malaysian King. It's 12' x 4' x 3' high on the inside. The cage is itself is done, but I have to finish the inside. Bamboo or some kind of good looking fake foliage, rocks, small waterfall, etc. He's in the cage now in my living room. | |

So you mean it's a kind of stage setting ? Still looks nice... I would like to see the King cage in time... Gr., Pascal. | |

| Stage setting, exactly. I'll build one after I finish my new hot room. The King's cage will take a little longer. I have to get the bamboo and other foliage, pump and filter for the waterfall, make the waterfalls the fake rock way. I'll post pics when I get it done, but it will be a while. In the meantime the Kings cage has a big water pool he can get into completely, and a couple half round hollowed out logs to hide in. One near a heat lamp and one away from it. | |
