Here's my 'boys' (actually I don't know LOL) just after their sheds:) The older undressed just a matter of days to the younger.



~Sigh~ If only their feeding was like that! The older has, I think, started his fast since September. The younger just ate Friday and probably by Wednesday will be ready for another.

I love the colours on the younger one. How old are they? And out of curiousity, what sized prey are you feeding them?

I'm not sure of the ages...I bought the older 11 years (come December!) ago as he was 'grown' then. When he's eating good and not being a pain, a large rat usually every 2 - 2 1/2 weeks.



The younger I've had about 2 months now...again, not sure of the exact age. He eats a large mouse about every 5 days, sometimes 7.

Sorry about that Munchy! Didn't mean for that to come across as being hateful. I know some keep track of everything their snakes do (nothing wrong with that!), but after taking care of him so long I'm pretty much use to his routine and don't keep him on a schedule:)

Nicky, the 'babies' is actually the same snake, just two different pics:) Just a normal with great colors! The older is actually a bit brighter but the camera just kinda dulls him out even more. I may take him out and take some snaps in the sun...course then he will look TOO bright! LOL

lol you didnt come across as being hateful at all. i was just wondering. i also have a full-grown adult male and to be perfectly honest i dont really keep precise records of his sheds anymore either. like i mentioned, hes full-grown and i dont plan to use him for any breeding projects or anything (although you never know. :eek: ) i hope hes still around in 11 yrs though!!
