    I have a couple more clutch pics I can put up, need to upload them though so it will have to wait until tonight

    And in another 30 days or so I should be able to start posting pics of hatchlings

    This thread makes me so happy.
    I don't have any now, but used to have a pueblan milk, named Louise (first to get the reference wins a prize), and a California King named Ophelia. Our resident has a ball python named Israel, but we don't have room for one that big so he lives with her mom. Got to meet our yard snake just last weekend - a lovely black rat. I named him Sam. Hope he eats all the moles.

    I have an apricot pueblan milk named Lexie. Love her to pieces!

    I can dig em. They're super cool, I'd love to eventually get one as a pet. My fiancé's sister has a red tailed boa, he's gorgeous!

    @jader8993 If you do go for a boa I advocate doing a bit of research on the species/subspecies before picking one up, some of them can get pretty large and it is best to know what you are getting into before hand rather than being unpleasantly surprised a couple years down the road

    LOL I love that defensive position, all attitude but nothing more than bluster (hogs are great for that too)

    There's some excellent photography in this thread. I like snakes. The husband decidedly does not, so no snakes for me (and I'm really bad at taking care of pets anyway), but I'm fascinated by them. Had no idea about all the possible breeding combos before reading this thread, I find that really interesting. In for more pics!

    Got to hold a sunbeam snake today. First time seeing one in person. It was awesome!

    I like when people have pet snakes and put tiny little hats on them. I saw one snake pic on Tumblr once, it had little bunny ear headband on. Nothing to hurt them of course.

    But snakes wearing tiny hats is just about the cutest thing ever. (Must have some patient pet snakes lol).

    So... This weekend proven an eventful one for me. Went into the snake room to feed and out of the corner of my eye I noticed something was off in my egg-eater tank. When I turned my full attention to it I discovered that rather than there being just the one adult snake in there, there was an adult snake and three babies!! Went in to wrangle them and discovered two more. Then I found the eggs, seven in all and all pipped. Took me another hour to find the last two.

    This was more than a little unexpected because I did not breed this girl and she has been housed by herself since I got her. So she must have been gravid when I bought her.

    Now the fun begins... I need to find a whole bunch of finch eggs... :/

    Well, my ball python hatching season has officially begun:

    IMG_8275_zpsmno4a8qi.jpg

    A pure white SuperFire, aka Black-eyed Leucistic. This girl is also possibly Pastel, possibly SuperPastel, and possibly Yellowbelly. Given she if 100% white, I am thinking she probably has at least one of the other morphs in her

    When I was in high school a friend of mine had a very nice albino boa. Pertri, he was cool. She usually fed him frozen mice but once got him a live one. He looked at it like, "WTH why is my food moving??!!"

    Snakes are fine, as long as they aren't of the human variety.
