Bath Time!

[riddick07]

I give everyone baths when I clean cages and I took pics this time. Everyone is getting big except for the little 2015 baby. She's still tiny!

I'll start with Bodacious even though he got his bath last....he is living up to his name. He is a little @$!#@%$$!...but he is a Kingsnake so I was kind of expecting it. I've been giving him time but he got me again tonight. So I'll be wearing my old riding gloves from now on when handling him. Every time he tastes skin he bites but he didn't even bother when I put the gloves on. He isn't aggressive he just bites whenever he scents my hands.



Little Athena. She too has a lot of attitude! I'm thinking she will even out as she gets older.



Riddick. He is getting thick and his adult colors have really started to show after his recent shed.




Ivy. Pretty as ever of course plus shes getting long!



Eve. My beautiful little problem eater who worried me quite a bit in the beginning. She is finally growing steadily and moved up food sizes!

Vera is getting dark! She shed the other week but is going through a growth spurt and is ready to start another shed already. I'll have a black snake before I know it.





My still unnamed white sided rat. The side he scrapped up is healing nicely and I expect after a shed or two it will be like it never happened. You can barely notice now even without a shed. In the second pic you can see the spot that has a slight discoloration...that is where he accidentally scrapped off a piece of shed too early on his log. He is no longer allowed wood until he is bigger...and less of an idiot...




I'm actually thinking Roy as a name for this one...no idea why but I'm still undecided! My big butt albino chinese beauty. He has gotten bigger after feeding on small rats for a couple weeks. Getting some weight to him and he seems longer but that may just be my mind playing tricks on me. Somehow I am able to stuff him into this small container...

Lastly Cordelia...my usually beautiful girl is actually bordering on ugly right now...well okay I'll admit I do think she is ugly right now She looks like she is brown again like she was as a baby...I've never seen her look quite so bad during a shed before now! I was very surprised when I got her out of the hide...for a second I was like who are you:20:

I love looking at your snake photos - despite the fact that my stomach is churning 10,000 miles an hour.......

That first silver coloured one is nearly cute....what a darling!

Great pics and great snakes there. I raised and bred Retics and Burmese pythons in a previous time of life. Loved them and still love reptiles.

I think Eve and the beauty snake are tied for my favorites in the house. Eve definitely just has that cute shy little girl air to her...don't ask me how a snake does that but for some reason that's always what she reminds me of when I have her out!

I went for a little while without getting any new snakes and just had my boa and Python. But then when we moved I had more room and I got my first two corns...it started snowballing again! The beauty snake reminds me of a young reticulated actually.

Hehe they keep getting prettier as they grow I can't wait till my black milk is jet black. It'll take a few years still! I'm trying to maintain some self control and not buy that pretty snake I found online the other day...she's a baby so I could fit her and I have an extra baby cage and heating element...control is hard!
