New Snake Guy
Hi everyone! Im new to snakes, and its not really by my own choice. My kids walked in the house not too long ago with a California King Newport-Long Beach Morph (I hope I got it right). After my first shock at it, and panic because I thought my kids might get hurt, all was well.
We've had "Susan" (no idea how the name came about) for about 4-5 days. Below are some pictures of her and of her tank I bought. Im not quite sure how to care for this animal, since I'm really a fish guy. So Im here to learn.
I really am interested in feeding, care, handling (my kids pick her up) and biting.....I know that there are no fangs, but want to minimize the risk of my kids getting bit. And and all help or advice you can give will be greatly appreciated. I was originally at your sister site "thamnophis" because we thought she was a Garter. After getting help from everyone there we were able to identify her, and one of the Moderators "Infernalis" suggested I check this site out.
Here's our girl.....so far, she ate Saturday night, and ate 2 small mice. I just need to get this feeding down, so she doesn't think we're her food, but rather a safe place with endless supply of food, attention, safety and love.
Thank You!
Ron
