Hi all. I received my newest addition "Apollo" today. He's an albino whitesided (snow) bull snake produced by Jason Nelson at Envy Reptiles. I can't say enough good things about Jason's great customer service and the quality of the animals he produces. This is my second transaction with him and he's really a first class act.
My guy arrived safe, sound and grumpy this morning. He even gave me a nice nip on the hand to forge our bond in blood. I thought y'all said that bite wouldn't hurt :Wow:! JK, it only stung a little. Anywho, I left him to settle into his new pad and can't wait to get home to check on him. I was able to grab a few cell phone pics. I think he's going into shed but I'll get better pics after he's eaten in a couple of days. I also posted a pic of his tub. This is my first tub set up but I think it turned out OK. The Pharrell Williams "happy" song has been playing in my head every since I got him :). Thanks for looking ;)

Beautiful little snake! From the looks of that second photo, that he has a bull snake attitude. Please keep the photos coming as he gets older.

Thanks y'all. He is 42g of pure pit attitude. I'm sure we'll get along just fine once he realizes I'm the hand that feeds him ;)

I was just looking back at how far my boy Apollo has come. He's pretty chill these days but he was a 42g spitfire when he first arrived two years ago. He's roughly 6ft and was 1572g the last time I weighed him was on 4/19/16. Sorry for the blurry pics.
