Arriving at some point...

A shelter contact asked if I would be interested in her son's grumpy yearling carpet. At first I said no since I'm not really interested in grumpy snakes. Then of course she sent a picture...so yeah new one coming soon

Nothing wrong with grumpy snakes! Especially as pretty as this one

Maybe it's just grumpy because it's not liking it's current situation. Hopefully it becomes a calmer snake in your care.

Re: Arriving at some point...

I'm not a fan of grumpy snakes either but that is one nice JCP. And since it's still a youngin I'd take a chance on him too.

Re: Arriving at some point...

He was dropped off at the shelter Saturday but didn't pick him up until today. He has a brighter yellow than that picture showed! So far I have not been struck at and he has been dumped in a bag, nixed, and stuffed in a humid box to get the shed off. Figured I'd stress him out all at once instead of stretching it out!

Re: Arriving at some point...

Stunning carpet, sounds like you have a winner. If all that didn't turn him into a bite machine I'm sure with proper care and tap training he'll be a perfect snake and an awesome display snake.

Re: Arriving at some point...

Whoa easy on the anti-beard micro aggressions. That is an incredible rescue. If I would have stumbled upon an animal like this then I too would be in the carpet club. Fortunately most I have seen have been just brown on brown.
