Re: Am VERY excited!!!

Well if this works then here are the first photos of sunny (Wayne will be impressed!!!)

The first one is literally as i took her from her travel box and put her in the viv and the second one i captured by sitting next to the viv for the last five hours waiting for her to come out for her evening stroll!!

Re: Am VERY excited!!!

Thank you all - she is VERY pretty - in real life her colours dont look quite so vibrant which i think looks better than in the pics - the white bits are more of a creamy yellow and the orange is kinda washed out almost browny orange colour.

Hell yeah I`ll see some of that action! If she really is a she Rob, we should get her mated by one of my randy males! She`s lovely!

Re: Am VERY excited!!!

Well - kinda hoping she IS a she. The guy that had her called her Jake when she was little (Jake the Snake - how original) he then got his vet to give her the once over as he was gonna get her a female to mate with. The vet told him it was female not male - then the guys wife got preggers and said that she wouldn't have a snake in the house with a baby and that they needed the extra space.

Thats the story as i know it so ... fingers crossed!! We are tentatively considering when our young males are older and bigger (they are about 8months old now) that we will mate them then.

Re: Am VERY excited!!! PROGRESS REPORT

Well we are now nearly 6 months down the line and today Sunny (the snake that had been handled EVERY DAY before we got it - NOT!) came out of her hide and sniffed my hand and easily let me stroke her back before quietly going back into her hide. Usually in order to get her out for feeding or handling there is a semi "fight" as she does not want out of her hide.

All the time and patience is starting to show results and am hoping soon that she will be like our babies and come out of the viv onto my hand of her own volition. That day will be quite emotional for me i think.
