Japanese rat - another try

I just figured out I had a gallery, so here I am, trying again

For those interested, my avatar is this snake's mother, so they can be very blue. Mainland forms tend to be darker, and mostly grey. There is a striped form, and the albino form is getting to be more common in the States. They're hard to find in Canada, I imported mine from Adam Block when he sold off his colubrids for ball pythons (why? why?)

Very nice, tell me more such as size and how "Tame" can they be?

Thanks
Brian

And I bet you'd give him and his girl a home, wouldn't you Katt?

For Brian, they're corn-snake sized. Some say they're the calmest snakes they own, mine are very excitable and nippy. After a short period of handling, they get calmer, but are still prone to sudden bites.

Yes Alex, I will gladly take care of them, I mean after all we're close to each other, you'd have visiting rights, of course.

Uh huh... visiting rights? How about custody holidays and weekends?

Tim, I think you should hold your breath until they're big enough to breed

I tried to take full-body shots while they were eating today, but they had a huge spazz out, both of them. It's like someone's spiking their water.

Thank you. It's been very useful. I documented my mother feeding the cats salmon on the kitchen table, so now I have leverage if she doesn't want my father seeing those pictures

Nice snake Alex,
I think I saw some at a Port Credit show a while back. I believe that they were on Boa-Mania's table.

Cheers!

Simon
