New SD reticulated python, what do you guys think?

[Tsubaki]

Hey everyone, got myself a new retic. The owners couldn't care for her any-more, she was a little too much for them but i won't get into it much further. She was a bit dehydrated when she came here, her eyes were dented and her skin was dry. Her tail tip has been broken at one point but it is an old injury, other than that she is fine! Even though she was said to be aggressive, so far she seems very friendly to me. The previous owners still have other snakes, and might join us on the forum! She doesn't have a name yet, i'm a bit torn between Lyra or Misa. Anyway, as far as i figured out, she is 75% SD and 25% Dwarf (Bali yellowhead) she is 66% het albino and i'm unsure about anything else.. She's a pretty retic with intense red and yellow colouring (i'll get better pictures some day), and a full back-stripe! i love the way the stripes on her side start with dots gradually increasing in size.

Yesterday i brought her home and snapped a few pictures before i got her inside (First 3, see the dented eye).. Today i gave her a bath to rehydrate her, her eyes and skin look better now! (Rest of the pictures during the bath)

[Tsubaki]

Thanks mac! She has the big baby eyes :D

[EL Ziggy]

That's a really nice critter Tsu. I've been contemplating those SD retics for a while now but I have to admit those teeth give me pause :). They have the most amazing paint jobs though.

@ Blaze- where'd you find that old picture of me? ;)

[Tsubaki]

Thanks Ziggy, and their sharp end is pretty sharp!

[Tsubaki]

Not the best picture, but wanted to show you guys a size reference :D

[Tsubaki]

[Tsubaki]

Jaw dropping beautiful. Her color just pops.

[Tsubaki]

Thanks Chuck, I was very surprised when I went to check on her! She looked like she was in shed, but they told me she had shed 'around a week ago' but they weren't certain... :D

[JellyBean]

Simply beautiful! I love how she is partially 'upside down' in that pic.

[Tsubaki]

Thanks JellyBean, not sure what you mean with partially upside down though :D

Alright one more, just because i can..

[JellyBean]

The big part, where she is laying her head, like her pattern went 'backwards'... But ignore me. LOL

Wow! Even prettier when she is all stretched out! What a beautiful pattern.

[dannybgoode]

Wow, super snake.

I'd just about talked myself out of an SD retic but having seen some in the flesh at the reptile show and these pictures I'm not sure I'll be able to resist.

They really are such special snakes. I've said it before and this girl reinforces my view that they are the only snake that have a look of conscious intelligence about them. Other snakes have more of a look or pure instinct if that makes sense.

[dave himself]

She really is a beautiful snake Tsubaki, those colors are amazing

[Tsubaki]

Thanks everyone :D

[trailblazer295]

When can I come pick her up?

[Minkness]

I believe it was decided that I have dibbs. =)
