Re: Profile: Noodle(Banana King)

I'm not sure as I'm not really knowledgeable about king morphs but I think it has to do with their pattern as well as coloring. Banana kings that I've seen are anywhere from a low white to a high yellow with that kind of aberrant type pattern.

Mine is supposed to be a reverse stripe black and white, but she's a low white...almost a yellow and more aberrant. She's still pretty and has quite the personality which makes her interesting to watch Not too keen on handling yet as she still thinks fingers are food lol

Re: Profile: Noodle(Banana King)

I also am not very knowledgeable on king morphs, but just searching around youtube and google I found a lot of examples of "Banana Kings" that looked similar to him but really am just going off what I've been told.

Had a scary incident with him last night though, I had him out and a friend called who's car blew up on him and needed a ride. So I put him back in and left but must have not shut the cage right. Got home after going out to eat and his door was open. I freaked out, did the same thing I did when DB escaped. Only this time I looked at where his cage was and the first warm hidey place for an escaped snake was under my wall heater. I felt around in the small area under it and my fingers found what felt like a wire but it took a second for me to realize that i was pulling on Noodle not a wire. He got away from me so I took the heater off the wall and he was laying right there. As soon as I moved it I saw him look at me and he didn't move at all. Poor guy I picked him up and he was freezing cold. I warmed him up in my hands for a few minutes then let him chill under a light for awhile until his surface temp was like 88 or so, then put him back into the cage. I lifted temps to 75f/88f, and 90f in his hide just in case. He was out for probably 4 hours tops. at myself

Re: Profile: Noodle(Banana King)

Not trying to be cheeky or anything, but you might want to put a note on top of the lid of your cages that says "don't forget to close me completely!" or something. I do that when I notice I'm picking up bad habits like that. It's worth it if it means you won't forget again...

Glad you found him though!!!! You should give us updated pics as soon as you can

Re: Profile: Noodle(Banana King)

Haha I usually do, I was just in a rush to get to my friend. It's cold outside, his car was stalled on the side of the road, didn't know how he was dressed. Noodle seems fine as of 6:30 he's crawling up his vine doing his normal late afternoon patrol.
