[@CrittaCam]

Thanks Mark

[@staceyroberts3468]

Awesome build 👍🏻👍🏻

[@CrittaCam]

Thank you Stacey

[@benjaminwatson8948]

Hey Peter, have you had your Roughie’s lay eggs in the hide box up top yet? Would love another video of your rough scale pythons again 🤙

[@donteague614]

Absolutely awesome! Looks like you took a slice of ma nature and transplanted it!! I bet you would love our snakes here in the states! But I guessed they are banned down under. You guys are just as crazy as we are about snakes here in the states! Love to visit your awesome country once before I kick the bucket! Cheers mate

[@CrittaCam]

Hey Don I'm sure it's a buckelist trip for sure plenty of critters here to see

[@jayboyle000]

Well done mate, looks great Universal rock can't be beatin , if only it wasn't so pricy but the dollar value still out ways waiting for all those layers to dry doing it any other way.

[@CrittaCam]

Unsurpassed quality can be pricey but it will last year's

[@joshuacresswell7673]

Please do an update on this colony of carinata, would absolutely love to see and hear more about this magnificent space. Also, have you thought about adding a second nest box?

[@bradleybrice6894]

Nice mate

[@CrittaCam]

Thanks Bradley

[@bradleybrice6894]

Love to have one my snake

[@louv4437]

Awesome cage Pete can you help me with one for retics and carpets lol

[@CrittaCam]

I wish I could, hit up Brian Barcyzk he maybe able to help you out

[@troyclements4546]

And now we know what that vivarium was for. Your advocation of maternal incubation is a mark of your experience, knowledge of species & husbandry skills. I hope it inspires more herpetoculturists to move in this direction allowing the adults to manage their own clutches & perform natural behaviour. It's amazing to watch for 60 days as they care for the development of their offspring. Morelia carinata aren't the most colourful of their genus, however they do have morphological differences which stand them apart from their cousins. They are like a weird bridge between morelia viridis & the other carpets not to dismiss their size & rough scalation adaptation. Better to appreciate them in a naturalistic vivarium than simply maintain in tubs as seems too often to be the case. I read a comment, you have 6 in there, isn't that a little overcrowded? I would think a 1.2 trio to be more adequate, but then you would surely require a second nest box for the future (unless they can incubate in tandem). Inspirational as always. Thanks

[@CrittaCam]

It's all part of experience, I not sure if there will be issues during breeding or incubation as there is basically zero wild information about them. But I'm willing to see what happens and SHARE my experiences.

[@LankyRaffe]

Would love to be able to make one for our burm 🐍🇬🇧

[@CrittaCam]

now that would be impressive

[@CJshapes]

Awesome build! Would love a link to the book you mentioned please mate!

[@brians_casual_shenanigans]

Absolutely awesome setup, mate. Hope to do something like this for some of mine, down the track.

[@LanceKirkman]

Pretty epic Peter, thanks!!!

[@CrittaCam]

I think so, thanks for the support

[@LanceKirkman]

@@CrittaCam you're welcome

[@denglemteverden6627]

amazing setup. where did you get the universal rock walls?

[@CrittaCam]

Got a lucky break and found this hidden away in a nursery

[@tobiasnahrhaft1936]

Do these rock ledges come with heating elements inside or did you do it yourself?

[@CrittaCam]

Hey Tobias, no they dont have heating iI put heat cord in them

[@tobiasnahrhaft1936]

CrittaCam that’s a great idea

[@jazordaey671]

Which model of universal rock is it also what did you do for the ledges?

[@sharneeproctor3785]

Could you do a video showing how the heat rocks are made I would really love to know Have a tutorial on it maybe ??

[@cameronsimpson3597]

What's the clear coat stuff you use mate

[@CrittaCam]

water based polyurethane

[@cameronsimpson3597]

@@CrittaCam thanks mate

[@johnschlesinger2009]

You are the absolute best! Wonderful setup; beautiful snakes - and the females will incubate their eggs as well: AND if a video you once did still holds true, you’ll give mom food room service as well. Truly, a keeper after my own heart. You’re a shining example.

[@CrittaCam]

Thank you for your kind words, I hope others will follow

[@Gottalovecarpetpythons]

A beautiful setup Peter and they are going to love it, 4 of them l am thinking.

[@CrittaCam]

They have been in there now for 2 months and they love it, there is 6 roughies living in there

[@Gottalovecarpetpythons]

@@CrittaCam That is wonderful Peter and l can see why they love it and you have given me some great ideas for setting up for my guy, l have only one rough scaled myself and l love him. One day may get him a female but only just turning 8 months old now.

[@CrittaCam]

@@Gottalovecarpetpythons awesome they are great pythons

[@hamishperring9307]

When you use leaf litter like that do u have to soak it in boiling water or treat it with something?

[@CrittaCam]

Put it in a garbage bag then you can treat it, allow to air prior to putting in the cage

[@hamishperring9307]

CrittaCam what do you treat it with

[@CrittaCam]

You can can use macmite to kill any bugs

[@brettchristoffel6391]

If your feeling brave you can bake it in the oven. (some people may not like you doing it though 😉)

[@jesusherself222]

Amazing setup Peter! And you have beautiful Rough-Scale Pythons!

[@CrittaCam]

Thank you Jurrasic

[@hamishperring9307]

Hectic setup🙌🏼💪🏼👏🏼

[@CrittaCam]

Thanks Hamish

[@brettchristoffel6391]

Awesome build, I always go to my back yard for enclosure furnishings. It saves money and looks great. Hope to see a breeding success video in the relatively near future.

[@CrittaCam]

I hope so too Brett, thanks for the feed back

[@fungus2116]

I wish roughies were more common in wa

[@CrittaCam]

I'm sure once they start breeding them they will be, awesome pythons

[@Geologistandcoins]

Awesome setup! Looks incredible

[@CrittaCam]

Thank you so much

[@sergiodagostino5202]

Peter, where can we get Universal Rock panels that size in Australia (I'm in Melb.)? I'm told the Aus distributor won't be importing anymore (ironcally) because of the A$ trailing sparks...

[@CrittaCam]

I believe there may be a distributor In Victoria

[@MASTURBIKER]

Those basking rocks with the heat coils inside them, did you make them or buy them? if the latter do you have a link, if the former you should have done a video showing how you made them......
