hi
I'm just wondering about the growth rates on these. How long would it take them to reach the average adult length, and how big is this?

Bar neck Scrubs get HUGE! I've personally seen 20fters 15ft is NOT uncommon! They have HUGE teeth! Think of a green tree python with a larger head, longer teeth and 4X + the body length. I have seen calm ones but they have to be worked with forever. Typically babies will bite anything that moves. They require large enclosures and will sit on a branch just as a Green tree python would. More info:

Feel free to ask Yasser questions...when it comes to scrubs he is the man!!!

LOL I'd rather deal with retics who tend to think about it first. These guys just go at anything that moves! I have thought about it before! I have always wanted one but I lack the time needed to put in, in order to calm the beast!

I've just bought a male. His temper really isnt too bad. only attempted 1 bite so far.

Anyway I was just wondering about perches. How do I attach 1 to my viv?

Are you looking for a perm hold or a temp hold?

Can use epoxy for one or silicone for the other.
