Oh yeah...I couldn't resist this guy...he was SO docile, sweet, and I freaking LOVE his googly eyes!!! They are light colored and you can see the iris...when he looks around it's like seeing a chameleon's eyes or something. SOooooooooooo cute!!
Okay, so now I'm reading up on sand boas. Of course I got it from PetSmart...woohoo %15 off for employees!!! hehehe
I really told myself no snakes from there...but...but...i held him and...well that was it.
Hubby unoffically named him Sandy. He thinks it's a girl, and I think it's a boy *lol* I have looked online, but when i look at the snake for some reason my eyes kind of cross and i have no clue. Although, I tried to pop it and nothing...so My guess right now is that he's an almost grown male.
Okay, so I have no experience with sand, and animals. I told myself i wouldn't do sand...but i found a calcium one that said it was safe if they injest it. Well, last night he peed somewhere...the WHOLE tank stinks, and I tried to sift it...and there was no clump or indication of where it was. So, I'm going to have to change the whole thing (when i get offline, heh). Let me tell you, i am not going to be going through that much sand all the time for replacement. SO, any other recommendations? I really get upset when they ingest they aspin bedding (any of them...bratty baby hognose ate a piece last night, and i have found a random, unpooped (so, it hadn't actually been pooped out) out stick of aspin sticking out of my other hognose's vent...supposedly the dumeril's eat bedding all the time for no reason...) ...but I can't really think of anything else. I tried coconut husk on my borrowers before, but they can ingest that too...and the borrowers i have don't need to be that moist. So, aspin...at least the aspin covers the smell...but...blah...
Anyway...Pics...!
He's adorable, regardless!
