Melissa is one of my trainees. We are hoping that she will redeem the Campbell name. You see, we ask people to overlook Barry. He is an idiot. We purposely trained him wrong as a joke. Also, since Melissa is about the same size as BW, I think this picture will finally lay to rest who has the biggest cotton. Ha ha

You'll have to overlook Chuck. He has been stuck on that movie Kung Pow: Enter the Fist since he saw it back in 1997. I am very pleased with the progress my wife has made in her training though. Appreciate it Chuck.

There is a compeition? Also helps when the snake is 4 feet away from the handler. Is that a Cotton or a Dekayii ;)
I do have to mention that it is very dangerous to hook at that angle. One turn and that snake could roll right onto her arm.
Think it might just be the angle I got BW. You gotta remember-I am a foot and a half taller than my wife and I was the photographer.
Dont get me started guys! Tiny could devour both of them and still take a combo rat!!! Ha! Seriously, he well over 5 and weights about 8 lbs now. Not the fattest cotton but hands down the longest I have ever seen!
I have to get a better pic of him stretched out. Hopefully I can find somone with testicle fortitude to take a decent, up close pic.

Yes, Tiny is by far the longest Cotton I have ever seen (aside from 1 DOR Chad found which was right up there but hard to tell).
I realy wish I still had the pic York sent me of a WC conanti he found while road crusin. The thing almost dwarfed Tiny!! It had to be over 6!!! The pic was amazeing! He was tailing him and at a glance it looked like a python rather then a cotton.
Also, Thanks to the wonderful MsTT I have finnaly gotten the meds for Tiny's RI. I gave him 3 shots of Ceftazidime at 72 hrs apart. I havent had any probs since and he seems fine. I am still watching him like a hawk because of his age but think he will be ok. I just hope he didnt get any sorta infection in his mouth because of how he was cracking it to help breath. His mouth isnt swollen and he eats fine but for som reason I thoght I saw a darkish spot. It is entirely posible that it could have been a shadow. Once he is alittle more down the road of recovery and able to be stressed I will get some help and check. Now that will be fun!!! Give me a 6ft kaouthia anyday!!
Hope all is well bro.
All the best,
J
BTW, I ment Jumbo, not combo

Tiny only eats Jumbos? :D PK gives me a dirty look if I hand her anything less than a pound! :eek: Even then, you can't really see a lump. I can't imagine how fat she would be gravid! On the downside, I can tell she is getting old. Just not moving quite like she used to. Hell, her scales are strting get wrinkled and she is turning a bit gray. I wish I had ANY clue how old she was.
