that's a content *sigh* LOL :D

My newest addition, and the first male snake in my collection:

Weighing in at 482.5g, length of 35.7" at only 8months of age, here he is:

the bowl was weighed first and scale back to 0, so that is his weight :)

My batteries were dying so the pics are not the greatest, as he has some IMHO awesome markings.

The only problem I have with him, is that I don't have any prey big enough for him LOL. I thought the 80g rats would be perfect for him, till I got him home, and later on fed him. He took down the biggest one I had, 82g.....then seeked out more. He ended up having another, 65g rat as well. So I definately will be orderring a bigger size prey, as there was hardly any bulge with the first one :o Piggie.

His temperment is absolutely amazing. Very calm and curious. I can't wait to get him in his semi-permanent cage. Right now he's in the observation tank till I'm done my rack.

Anyways, thanks for looking and reading.

Any name suggestions for my new boy?

LOL, for a small town gal, I've got quite the "zoo". COuld start charging admission....hmmmmmm. Then pay for my next one with the admission I get :D I'm getting there tho. I believe it will end once I get mates for the snakes I have, that will total 8 snakes of varying sizes. I think that should be enough eh :)
