ReptiCareWeek 34
From the reptile world
This week: the green tree python in profile, a look at the permit requirement, two articles from the guide and three short notes from the scene.
A tall, well-ventilated enclosure with sturdy perching branches
Warm area 29–31 °C, cool side 23–25 °C · 60–80 % humidity with drying phases · Level: Advanced
Giant snakes over 3 m require a cantonal permit in Switzerland — the green tree python stays below that threshold.
This is what an issue looks like.
What is in it
One species in profile
A different one of the 93 species each week: With enclosure, temperature, humidity, feeding, origin and legal position.
Briefly explained: Swiss law
Permit requirements, minimum dimensions, expertise, live feeding: One point per issue, summarised clearly.
From the guide
Practical matters of husbandry, care and record-keeping, how to note it all down sensibly.
Briefly noted from the scene
Three items from the reptile-keeping world, checked by hand. Anything off-topic is dropped.
