Just for kicks, here are a few pics of our little guy(s) at play (and dinner--they're both amazing eaters!). Geez, I guess I should've put this on a general photo board--sorry!
We're not sure how old Diesel (albino burm) is but he's growing about an inch and a half a week--is that typical? I guess if we ate proportionally what he eats each week we'd grow too (only not in length!).
We're all just so smitten with him--and his new brother, Axl our rescued adult ball python (we had had Diesel for only 2 weeks and already we got "the call" to take an unwanted snake!) we can't seem to leave them alone--we have them out of their cages about an hour a day, I hope that's not bad for them (we don't take them out for a couple days after eating or if they're shedding). It's easier to do daily maintenance on their cages if they're out (changing water, misting, cleaning up the substrate, etc.) so it serves two purposes I guess.
Snacktime!
