He's doing great. He's really started to grow lately. I need to get a few updated photos as soon as he sheds. He's opaque right now. I upgraded him to a larger enclosure yesterday. He could have stayed in the 20g long that he was in for a while longer, but my daughter needed it for her gerbils, so I went ahead and cleaned up his mid-sized enclosure and put him in it. It's 36x18". I think he'll stay in that until I build his adult home.

Re: He's here! At long last, my Eastern Indigo.

Just a crappy cell phone photo, but I realized it has been a long time since I got any photos of Loki. He's doing well. He's now at about 36". So, he's grown 13" in just over 4 months. And he's still a cool little dude.

I think Indigos are one of the world's most beautiful snakes and yours is a great example eminart.

Just messing around. Not sure why it came out so blurry though.

I don't know where you live, so I don't know if it's legalities or the cost that's holding you back. But, either way, you might look into the cribos. I want a couple of every drymarchon species. They're all cool.

Cribos are nice but they're not Indigos which are a protected species here in GA. The Indigos are a bit costly too but worth it.

Since all the cool kids are doing it, I made a stop motion video of Loki shedding.
