CY - My corn snake. He has a CY pattern on his head, and CY is also short for Cylon.
Stubby - My Snow Radix who was born with no tail.
Jaws - Another Snow Radix, he always bites, every time I reach in his cage.
Dorothy - (R.I.P.) she was the meanest bi**h of a snake I ever owned, so I named it after my wife.
