New pictures of Kaylee. (Brazilian Rainbow)

Here are some not super great pictures of Kaylee, she did not want to cooperate! I don't think she likes my husband for some reason, she inducted him into the bite club the first day we brought them home and lounged for him once during the photo shoot. He was the one taking pictures. She has not, knock on wood, ever attempted to bite me but we are both cautious with her. However, Simon, the one that was supposed to be the easy going one, has nailed me twice but never given my husband a problem.

Re: New pictures of Kaylee. (Brazilian Rainbow)

Kaylee is looking pretty good! You captured her iridescence well, cooperative or not. ;-) How old is she now?

(I've noticed that a usually tame rainbow can sometimes react poorly to a specific person, almost as if the animals picks up some type of vibe...I had a baby that disliked a friend of mine so much he fell of the table trying to tag my buddy! That said, they almost always mellow with age.)

Re: New pictures of Kaylee. (Brazilian Rainbow)

Thanks!
She and Simon are an adult pair we got from a semi local guy who was getting married and needed them gone. He was at least their second owner and wasn't sure about their ages but thought that Kaylee was about 3 1/2 and Simon 2 1/2 years old. But I believe they are at least a year older than that. We got them last Sept and the guy we got them from said that they had had a litter of 18 babies in 2012.

I do much prefer getting babies and raising them up, it is a lot easier to learn their quirks and moods. Not so intimidating dealing with a grumpy baby who you don't know exactly how it might react to various things than it is dealing with an adult you don't know!

Re: New pictures of Kaylee. (Brazilian Rainbow)

I'd bet on older,as discussed -- at least age six for her (minimum 2.5 to breed in 2012, so born in 2009 or earlier; but larger litter implies at least another year, plus two years since)?

I agree with raising from babies -- all but two of our animals were either raised from babies, or bred here!

Such a pretty snake!!

A friend of mine used to have a good sized adult female that was just THE meanest thing you've ever met... except with him, then she was a lap-snake lol
