The Pretty Ones!

[riddick07]

The number of my snakes has grown quite significantly in the last year! I thought I would share pictures of everyone except my two large ones. I've had Cordelia and Riddick for one year this month and everyone else less than a year. My two big ones, Lucky - Red Tailed Boa and Catty - Ball Python, I've had for 11 years now but no recent pictures of them floating around right this second!

Cordelia - Female Striped Bloodred Cornsnake


Riddick - Male Butter Cornsnake


Ivy - Female Sunglow Motley Cornsnake



Eve - Female Axanthic Blonde Phase Trans-Pecos Ratsnake


Unnamed - Male White Sided Ratsnake AKA Licorice Ratsnake



Unnamed - Female Black Milksnake


Unnamed - Male Albino Chinese Beauty Snake



I'm taking name suggestions on my unnamed ones!

Victoria, they are all stunning! I especially love the Milk Snake.
I so miss having a snake We used to have a pair of Burmese Pythons, the female was 16 ft long and 250 lbs, and the male 14 ft long and 200 lbs. I also had an Indigo snake several years ago who was a wonderful guy

I loved seeing the update! The cornsnakes have grown so much in the past year. My favorite color is Ivy. How close to full size are they?

I've never heard of a Chinese Beauty snake. Is there another common name for them? Definitely beautiful though.

I have no name ideas, but I enjoy seeing your pics!

I remember my burmese guy he was hard to move around for sure! Even Lucky is a heavy one to move from one place to another

You had an Indigo! I looked at them but decided on the black milk instead.

Probably a good choice...Ki (Indigo) was an awesome snake, but very nervous. He was 6 ft.long when we got him, and he was very jerky and windy, if that makes sense. Hard to control. And an escape artist.

Where did you come up with the name Cordelia from? That always reminds me of Buffy and Angel

Cordelia and Riddick aren't full grown yet! I'm not sure how much more I would say they will grow but it will be very slow from here on out compared to their first year. The other ones are young and have a lot of growing to do still. The chinese beauty snake is full grown and about 3 years old or so. They are a type of ratsnake and there are a lot of other types of the beauties. I'll probably get a blue beauty at some point. I'm just snaked out for a little while right now.

Eve I thought I was going to lose for awhile. She kept regurging her food and I couldn't figure out why. Her temps were good whenever I checked them but then I noticed the controller on the temp was being weird. Turns out it was jumping around on the temps and wasn't keeping them high enough. I just happened to always check them when they were good but when the new chinese beauty came in I was checking his temp quite a bit the first day and decided to check everyone else whenever I checked his and Eves temps were never the same and generally on the low side. So I got a new controller and switched her favorite hide to the warm side of her cage. So far she has kept one meal down and I'm feeding again tonight so we will see if she keeps this one down too!

hahaha thats exactly were I got it from! I used to watch Angel before I went to junior high every morning

Good luck with Eve, fingers crossed. You're such a good snake mom I'm sure you'll get it figured out.

Thank you I convinced my mother when I was around 12 I believe it was to get me a blue tongue skink. Lizard that is snake looking and then moved her up to a pretty little pink cornsnake....then hit her with the boa and the burmese python

I saw two more snakes that are really pretty so someone confiscate my cards (don't bother with the bank one that one was hacked so its already canceled right now) and paypal account....
