Do you ever see a snake you just can't get out of your head?

Someone has sent me a photo of a snake that's available that is just exquisite. Trouble is it has a price tag to match!

But by god ever since seeing it I just can't stop thinking about it.

Any one else ever suffer this affliction...

Eastern Indigos and Albino Olives are the one's that really get me.

This is a specific animal and a pretty special one. Having a serious think about it but it's early the most I've spent on a single snake.

May we see this extra special snake?

I saw a darwin carpet python on tumblr a couple days ago, looked up pictures to find out they're all stunning. And now I know what snake i'm getting.

Yes. It's probably a good thing I'm always broke.

This happens to me ALOT sadly. I just have to cry and remind myseld there is no way to afford it or house it at this time and save the photo to look at later and admire.

I'm not a big morph guy but Palmetto Corns did enough that I actually considered taking out a loan in order to get a trio.

Emerald Tree Boas do this to me as well as Eastern Indigos.

I have had this happen to me. It was a colubrid hybrid (didn't think I liked hybrids) on another continent so it wasn't meant to be. I still think about her sometimes... lol

I saw a baby corn snake once in a store. I swear this thing was candy coloured blue and red. Kicking myself for not at least taking a picture. Only $50 too so should have bought it. Did the responsible thing and didn't. Never seen anything like it before or since.

Atypical GTP, almost a "granite" pattern. I presume it's an adult, not still in transition, and expected to look like that going forward?

Sonoran or Arizona mountain kings...set against a mountain leafy stream background....I love those guys. San Francisco garter snake. Will never own one, but would love to see on IRL someday.

I saw this Panda Pied ball python and drooled over her. Oh, I wanted her so very badly. But alas I did not have $10,000.
