Hey all! So, I have had this girl for MONTHS now, and just call jer all kinds of things like 'Miss Hissy Pants' and such. But, I'd really like to give her an official name.

A little back ground about her. She was a rescue. When her last owner had her, she said that this snake was SO agressive that she would hiss, musk, strike at anything that moved, including the glass if aomeone walked by. I got to witness this first hand when I went to pick her up. Since I have had her though, she has calmed down considerably. She's never musked me, but took a konth to chill her out fron the SUPER LOUD hissing and glass striking. Now thoygh. She's a breeze. She still hisses, but it's more like a sigh or a very lazy, low hiss and not her "I'M GUNNA EAT YOUR FACE IF YOU TOYCH ME!" Kind of hiss. She's also calmed down while being handled. She used to thrash around and false strike and again...kore very loud hissing. Now, she just kinda slithers around and actually shows some curiosity instead of pure rage/hate. She may have just been very defensive, but either way, she's a completely different snake who seems to have adopted a bit more of a 'diva' personality. I have included some kore recent pics of her for a visual reference. However, the camera just can't pick up her real colors. Other than the usual yellow of an albino, she also has some really vibrant tangerine oranges and grapefruit pinks. So to me she's pretty citrusy lol.

She is not shy and hangs out in the open more times than not. She's fairly active as well, and a good eater. Also, the pictures of her in her new enclosure shows that when she sees someone is flashing bright lights at her, she wants to pose for the camera lol.

Eh, depends. Nice hognose. I was trying to look up fruits that were orange and pink, and then i found a plant that makes sour foods taste sweet. And really I'd call her berry or taami (which was the african common name of the plant). Eh something thats related to her color or attitude. Meh, just a suggestion. Hope that helps somewhat.

If it helps these are the names of mybother snakes.

Moko-male lesserbee bp
Amara-female ivory bp
Persephone -female ij carpet
Horus-male normal red hognose
Ra-male extreme red hognose
Osiris-male yellow conda hognose
Emma-female normal yellow hognose

My other animals

You could name her Sunshine. Sort of goes with her coloration and her "sunny" disposition;)
