Since I've actually been active in this forum lately, albeit in the mites area (Repticon-induced snake acquisition madness is now cured, thankyouverymuch), I figured I'd show pictures of my two beasties.
First up is Leonard -- he's my first boa, acquired in June of 2013. This is unfortunately his most recent picture, taken in July of 2015, and he was not feeling at all cooperative that day as evidenced by the grip I had on him to keep him in the frame. We gave up on photos for the day after this, for obvious reasons.
He's still not the biggest guy, but appears to finally be on a bit of a grow at the moment. And Leonard is, hands down, my favorite snake on the planet
Next is Rose, my 0.1 Central American baby, who came with a free batch of snake mites we're currently treating for (sigh).
In spite of her little unwanted friends, I am thrilled with her. She's absolutely gorgeous, and once we've got those nasties wiped out (we've been to the vet and are treating with ivermectin per orders; all our reptiles are on lockdown except for necessary handling until the mites are vanquished) I will be thrilled to be able to start working with my little girl
We have no breeding plans in spite of their gorgeousness (admittedly, I'm biased). Leonard is strictly a pet due to a now-nearly imperceptible kink in his tail and one eye with micro opthalmia. Rose is possible het T+, but we won't be proving her out one way or another so it's really immaterial.
At any rate those are my babies. We also have 1.1 2012 Kenyan sand boas, 1.1 2012 cinnamon ball pythons, 1.0 2012 Dumeril's boa, 0.1 1995 diamond/carpet intergrade, and 0.0.1 2015 sulcata tortoise. Thanks for having me aboard, y'all
P.S. Sorry for the photo sizes -- I don't know how take them any smaller :/
