This guy needs his own thread, now that he's fresh shed and looking awesome! Got this guy in Sept. 07, and my life has changed since. He's been a dream snake since day one, and is still my favourite to take out enjoy. Can't believe he's turning 5 this year, they grow up soo fast hehe...
His main quirk is his odd eating habit. He'll eat mice, soft furs, rats, and I've even seen him get excited about rabbit, but he stops eating the end of October, and starts again in April. Must be the Captive Hatched in him. He doesn't lose any weight in these 6 months somehow, and he's always been a slender boy, no matter what I give him. Still, he's an awesome snake and has turned many people's fears of snakes into dust... On to the pics.

Thank you everyone!! I sure love this guy, couldn't imagine starting with any other snake. The fact that he has changed other people's minds on snakes just makes me that much more proud of him. When ever someone comes over and has never held a snake, he comes out first, and is generally all I need. Everyone needs a Maru!! Caylan.S.
