Ahh, my little one fell asleep while I was holding her today . Guess it's safe to say she trusts me a little bit now! She was asleep for about 20 minutes, looked around for around 35 then wanted back in her tank. About a week ago she got a couple scratches from her climbing branch (the brownish-red spots on her, two of them on her). That's one thing about albino's, you can see every litle mark on them since they are so light coloured.

And she looks a little overweight because she hasn't pooped since her last meal yet. Lol . Hey, I just noticed that on one part of the photo her body looks like it goes right through another part lol (close to my wrist).

Hi Andy,

That's a very nice albino. How's the temperament?
Thanks for sharing.

Simon

Look at her . She used to be skittish as heck, but once she hit about two feet in length, roughly two weks ago, she has been very calm aside from a few incidents. I've been bitten a few times, but mostly my fault, smelling like mice and so on. last week I got nailed twice because I tried to handle her on feeding day, and I guess she knew it was feeding day so she bit what she thought was a mouse lol. She dislikes my friend Craig and my sister and gets angry around them for some reason, rattles and goes into strike position. Overall a really nice girl and so far a great pet.

By the look of her vent, it looks like she went not too long after the pic. LOL

Yep, you're right Tim. Right in the waterbowl this time, and also the biggest one she's laid down yet lol.
Yeah, she's growing quite quick. I thought she would grow way slower because of how your little ones have grown.

I find it fascinating that they can be so skittish and then so mellow and calm! I mean, I can take her out of her hide box and she won't even fuss, even though I only do that for cleaning purposes. She now only gets mad around my sister or when it's feeding day and my fingers aren't tasty enough for her lol.

I think you probably have a better quality mouse source then I do. I think when I switched Raven and Ruby over to F/T they started growing a lot better. (although Raven seems to be putting hers more to girth). I've been thinking of finding a new source for awhile now.
