Sooo that motley sunglow I never took pictures of for everyone...well here she is from that first day she arrived!



Pictures I took today of all my snakes expect for my two big guys of course. My striped bloodred girl has gotten huge...and if you see something extra in there...well I said I had no self control right!




Grey snake what grey snake....

So yeah I just stumbled across this one online...I just happened to be on a breeders site and accidentally clicked the buy button... yep that was it...


She is a Axanthic Blonde Phase Trans-Pecos Ratsnake. I can't get pictures that do her justice. The breeder had the best photo of her and that was the one above but I tried... She arrived April 1 so she is brand new but settling in well.

Awesomely beautiful! I am blessed with having many corn snakes on my property. I purposely leave large piles of brush for habitat. I have a racer that has been living here for over 5 years now, he has gotten quite large! When I am cutting the hedges, he pokes his head up and I have to stop, waiting for him to let me finish.

I really do have that lol. I have two other snakes I've been keeping a look out for from breeders.... the breeder I just bought the ratsnake from breeds one other type that I really like... so I have an alert for changes on their site:54:

Thanks! I already figured my limit for a collection will be two stacks four high....so I have room for 4 more snakes:54:

LOVE them!!! Such gorgeous colors. I'm glad I'm not the only snake/parrot parent in the world. You should have seen the look on the rescue director's face when she came to my home check to see my 7-foot red tail :09:. Baby snakes have the cutest faces I can't even stand it sometimes

Do you have to feed all of them live prey?

They all eat frozen mice no live prey. My big guys eat frozen rats.

Thanks:D I have a big red tail boa girl too! The one time my mothers macaw saw her he gave a startled squawk. Max mothers macaw doesn't even like the little baby snakes. All of my guys don't care about the snakes at all which is good since the snake population in the house keeps multiplying somehow:54:

They are gorgeous!!! My dear friend Timmy the albino California kingsnake passed away this year. I adore snakes--their movement is truly mesmerizing.

I keep, a boa, and few pythons. Among other critters, but I do like he all my guys. My conure barely notices my snakes. He will come and clean poop, do tell checks all that.

boas and pyhthons don't see birds as pray.
