Introducing: "Snowzilla"

As briefly mentioned in the members forum, I went to see a guy who said he had a juvenile burmese python. I took a look at the snake thinking: "Wait, the pattern, the head shape?" ... and after about 30 seconds I was sure I was looking at a large adult snow corn.

Unfortunately, the guy must have heated the enclosure with the basking light, thinking he had a burm. The enclosure was a tank with a non-locking screen. I'm surprised the snake stayed in it, especially as the bedding was mix of old aspen, decomposing shed, cardboard, and other organic matter.

I couldn't let her stay there, so I bought it for a relatively small amount and the guy let my daughter ride two of his horses. I hadn't planned on another corn, so hopefully she is finally settled in somewhat. The snake behaves like a typical corn, very friendly and curious. It's strength is more than I had previously in a corn, and she should be between 5' and 6' in length.

Hopefully I will have a better picture soon, keeping her wrapped around my arm was just the easiest way to get a shot of her.

Re: Introducing: "Snowzilla"

How'd be react when you told him it was a corn? Looks like a nice snake, I haven't seen too many pictures of full grown corns, I just Always find photos of yearlings.
