Pics aren't that great.....trying to keep Morph from escaping while trying to shoot with other hand in manual mode when he would not be still was not fun, lol !!!

I believe the word you are searching for it "Biased" :)
No worries though, it is a fantastic looking animal :)

The word prejudiced gets a bad rap, lol......we use it all the time in the court system as defined: A forejudgment; bias; partiality; preconceived opinion, or resulting from or having a prejudice or bias for or against.

Oh no, don't be!!! lol, I'm in a Courtroom 20 out of the 40 hours I work every week and have to tell myself when off "you're not at work Kat, use words people use in normal conversation!!!!" You would be surprised at some of the terminology that has a completely different definition in the legal handbook versus websters. I just didn't want you or anyone to think I used that term over another for any other reason than because I use it alot at work. Outside the Courtroom you are exactly right, biased is a much better term to use.

What's funny is my cocker Katie goes completely nuts if a wild snake gets in my kitchen or in our yard (usually Kings). She barks and growls and lunges and I know instictively it's a snake by her bark and the way she acts, but she is completely uninterested in our new snakey additions, lol. She sniffed at Morph when I had him on the blanket while we were outside and was like "whatever"...no barking, growling.....nothing. I was glad, don't get me wrong, but surprised.

My dog has been like that with all my cats, haha. She has no other choice but to understand that she is not the only baby we have, nor does the world revolve around her. (And she sure wishes it did! :P)

lol......We get the speckled kings all the time and man are they stressed at being caught........that "musk" smell they put off when scared is awful, but if I could mail you one legally I would have no problems sending it, lol. We also get western mud snakes too. Attached pics of the ones we get. I have also relocated the a few copperheads and moccasins (cotton mouth).

the specs I get range from a light yellow spec color to a neon green....love the green. the mud snake is neat and the ones I've caught had more red on the bottom and actually it's a reddish orange color.....very pretty. Those snakes are different.......you would think it was sick, hardly moves, very sluggish. It will curl into a tight coil and shake it's tail at you. I really thought I had a sick, almost dead snake on my hands the first time I had one come up on my porch.....it was laying right beside my german shepherd and I thought she had hurt it.......second one was the same but in my front yard. Finally I looked them up online and read about them and that is just how they are. Kings are the exact opposite!

That king is cute, hehe...and the western mud has a lovely pattern.
Haha, mailing them legally would be cool, but I'm not sure if I could legally have them in the city regardless.
As it is, I'm not even supposed to have a python...Pythons & Boas and like 90% of the other snakes in the world are illegal here in the city. NY State has different rules, more lenient, I guess because it's mainly country up there.

Yeah, that's crazy. I live outside the city limits so can have what I want as long as I have any state permits I may need, but inside the city limits of the city I work for.....you can have a non venomous snake without a city permit as long as it is not longer than 10 feet. If you have a non venomous snake over 10 feet you have to apply for a special permit and it may or may not be approved, and of course you also must have the required state permits if applicable.

That all sounds like too much work, to be completely honest here. I find it ridiculous that you can even have pythons here, regardless. There's also a lot of colubrids that you can't have here... >:/ I believe you can have kings and corns though.
