Talking My First Snake

"Someone" enticed me with his snakes.....they were amazing. A couple of them were sooooo friendly(if you can call a snake friendly). I caved.

Here's some pics of my newest baby:



pictures aren't the greatest...the colour is off a bit.



This lil bugger is settling in great. Thanks Simon

So, any tips for the snake noob? Yes I've read the caresheets....but would love to hear about other peoples experiences, thoughts, recommendations for a new owner.

Thanks

I didn't do anything. All I did was to give you a few samples of my collection and you thought that they were great and then you led me into 'selling' the snake to you.
I didn't do anything~
hahahah

Oh I am sure that you'll be coming back to get more from me soon. Maybe once this little one is settled down I'll be hearing from you again~
hahahaha

Enjoy~~ They are so cool when they are small. Usually full of attitude and always on the move. My little snow hisses when I feed my others. As to say "hey over here" and as soon as the lid is off -he is off like a rocket- LOL enjoy.
