new lampro...

Here is a female grey banded king I got from Tim C. last night.



I really like her, she is very calm

PS - She is missing the end of her tail, as you can see in the pic.

It's not different it's just nice clean perfect round saddles in her middle.

Yeah, she's a nice snake. Beautiful and calm.

She got loose during the spring/summer last year while I was building a bunch of racks. She turned up about 4 months later in my NEIGHOUR'S basement and missing the end of her tail.

Best of luck with her Kev!

I wonder what happened. I guess any number of things eh? Cat, dog, caught the tip in something and pulled it off, or maybe it fell off if some shed dried tight around it?

Weird. Neat little story though for a nice snake to come with

I would REALLY like to know what happened to her tail... AND how she got into my neighbor’s house! It was a very odd phone call to receive, THAT'S for sure!

Was she one of mine orginally Tim? How much tail does she have left past her vent now? It doesn't look like much, poor girl. Well at least other than that she appears to have done fairly well. That will teach her for being too adventurous, Mark

She has about 6 or 7 subcaudal scales left past her cloaca.

She was a petstore snake & first year breeding she got all eggbound. She was kinda small, so I beefed her up & bred her too late in the season. Missed & she slugged out. A vet trip helped cure the eggbinding & she is now a friends pet. Her stub tail had nothing to do with the eggbinding BTW, she was bred too late & therefore "slugged out". In most cases I don't continue breeding females that have had any eggbinding problems, I retire them. Mark
