Thanks, Allan. What can I tell ya...they float my boat :D

[Terranaut]

Wow very nice. Sol is my fav for sure.

[CDN_Blood]

...Sol is my fav for sure.

Well at least you're over the Blood python thing now :)

[MoreliAddict]

Lovin Sol as always.

[alessia55]

My favorite is Tanner, hands down. He's big and beautiful :yes:
Your whole gang looks great in the natural light!!

[CK SandBoas]

Have to admit, your Bloods are my favorites! I know they are not the right snake for me, so i will just continue to drool over yours:)

[CDN_Blood]

Well I'm glad everyone likes them, and it's interesting to see who likes which the best :)

[jaleely]

Tanner has such a sweet face!! And Sol is a beauty! I am still not too sure about the bloods though. Maybe i need to see one in person.
I love all snakes...and it'd be fun to hold one of those big fatties *lol* Can you even do that with them or are a lot of them too fussy?

[snake man12]

Love them all.=]=]=]=]=]

[CDN_Blood]

...and it'd be fun to hold one of those big fatties *lol* Can you even do that with them or are a lot of them too fussy?

Those 2 are only good for a couple of minutes being held, really. They're just too bulky and terrestrial to enjoy being held. It's much easier to just let them loose and interact with them that way than it is to hold them ;)

[jaleely]

I figured as much. I'm so hands on. I bet they're heavy!! I'd like to see them slither around though.
I think i just need more snake exposure *nod nod* i've only been around mine, and what i've seen in the area! And i haven't seen one of these!

[Trent]

They look great Todd...Sol is looking very fine!!!!

[CDN_Blood]

Have to admit, your Bloods are my favorites! I know they are not the right snake for me, so i will just continue to drool over yours:)

Just wipe them clean when you're done drooling on them and we won't have any problems :P

I'll make sure to wear a bib, so you don't have to worry about them!:p

[CDN_Blood]

It's been a while since I've posted any images here, so I'll just do the multiples thing again and carry on this Mixed Bag idea. If you don't see it here, it's moulting so fresh images will be forthcoming. Enjoy!

As always, I'm wiping the drool off me from looking at your animals. lol

Nice to see Mojo make a cameo appearance. :) How's he been doing?

Hehe, glad you enjoy 'm :)

Rainbow boas can be very sensitive about changing hands, and Mojo was no exception, however he's settling in nicely and just started eating for me, which is good news because he was awfully thin when he arrived 4 weeks ago, he wouldn't eat and then he went though a moult, so by the time he shed he was *really* thin. He refused a couple of offerings after shedding and I was starting to worry that a non-feeder had been dumped in my lap, so I just left him quiet to do his own thing and settle in and that did the trick. You'll notice there's a rather visible lump in 'm in that image.

Of course, the whole Mojo thin is all unofficial until his big unveiling, so let's just keep it between you and I until he makes his official debut with some good weight behind him. I'm hoping that all his bumps and bruises have cleared up by then also. Those are disappearing quite nicely also so far :D

[Toronto1977]

Great shots Todd. I'm really liking the Mixed Bag thing! Nice to see handsome Tanner again :)

[LISA127]

Beautiful pics! I love the face shot in the first set. And the rainbow boa is gorgeous.

[CDN_Blood]

...And the rainbow boa is gorgeous.
Which of the 3 Rainbows do you like best, Lisa? Skyler (Paraguayan), Tagz (juvenile Colombian) or Mojo (sub-adult Brazilian)? I'm going to assume you're talking about Mojo, but Skyler really floats a lot of boats around here too, so I'm curious to see which you like best, lol.

I'll post a thread with all 4 Rainbow boas (there is another juvenile Colombian here named Dusty which was dropped off with Mojo, but Dusty is just here so I can find him a new home) once both Dusty and Tagz have shed. They'll be shedding within a few hours of each other, but we still have a good week or so left to wait for that. It'll be fun to see all 4 in one thread to show the difference between them all.

[Pareeeee]

Love these photos! There can never be too many snake photos.

[CDN_Blood]

Oh, I dunno...my iPhoto Library has over 4,100 images of my own snakes, but then again, I've been at this a long time, lol :cool:

[Rogue628]

Oh jeez...and I thought I had alot of my current animals. lol

Sadly, I have more pics of my animals than I do my kids....but in defense, my animals will be still long enough for pics while my kids hide from the camera lol

Boomers is very photogenic for sure. She's a very pretty classic :)

[KORBIN5895]

I think dusty is calling my name....

[marvelfreak]

They are all beautiful snakes in their own right. But lets face it none of them hold a candle to Blue.

[CDN_Blood]

Ya think? If you want me to put you on the list for Dusty, you know where to find me to talk about that :)

[CDN_Blood]

lol, Blue is going to be pumped up in a few days, so once he's done digesting I'll get new shots of him for ya :)

[KORBIN5895]

I think we just might....

[millertime89]

Don't think you see my posts but they all look great. Mojo is a gorgeous high orange.

[CDN_Blood]

Part 3 - all from today. If you don't see it, it's moulting or too full to take out for an image. Enjoy :)

[Gungirl]

Gorgeous looking as always... I really really need to get my hands on an adult blood. I am still trying to figure out if I want one/can be patient enough to own one.. lol

[CDN_Blood]

lol, they're not for everyone, that's for sure. Bubbles (for example) was OK to take out, snap a few shots, put in a spare tub and clean his own tub, but he was very *not* OK being picked up to be put back. We shared a couple of very tense moments where we had a battle of wills and as usual, he won :)

[Gungirl]

Haha that is great. I think I would be ok with that type of stuff I just have never held an adult and want to make sure I know 100% what I am getting into. Babies are easy to love but the adults can be brutal.

[CDN_Blood]

Well, I'll tell ya, this was no picnic, lol. He really *wanted* to nail me and it came awfully close a couple of times, but thankfully he opted to just buck and huff this time. They have very short fuses and I pushed his limit. He has the shortest fuse of the 3 Bloods and I'm lucky if I can get away with a full minute of handling him. It's *much* easier to sit on the floor with them and let them do their thing, but when you start handling them they can get quite stressed very quickly a lot of the time. They simply don't like being off the ground.

Oh, and they're going to get a whole lot bigger than what you're seeing of these two right now :)

[Rogue628]

*drool* must stop looking at your bloods lol. Just when I've decided to get a retic first, you have to post more pics of your animals that causes indecisiveness again. lol

Mojo really stands out from the others but seeing him against your colombians really brings out their beauty...such a difference!
