Everybody Meet "Marduk"

So... i just came back from White Plains Show... Surprisingly there wan not that much ppl as i suspected but was busy enought...

First surprise i got on BHB table... Guess who was visiting a show ?!

EVIL MORPH GOD Kevin McCurley HIMSELF !!!!!:bow:

I have honor to shake a hand of god and have nice few minutes conversation :D

was soo shocked that forget him to ask if I can take picture of him and me together :rage::(:rage:...

Invaded Reptile Basic table... grab bunch of supplies... and start randomly cruising between tables...

Looking Around i meet Raphael Martinez from MAballsdotnet

On Outback reptiles table they have few last examples of different species of African House Snakes.

I dont even think about buying a snake... but prices was a lover that they kingsnake add so i start thinking... I want a pair but Josh already informed me that as of now they have only males...

One of Striped House Snakes was smaller that rest but as WC animal i liked that he dont have any scaring and was actually really friendly so I asked if they lover a price a little bit because of size...

After they told me a new price my hand automatically reach a wallet and here it is.

:rofl::rofl:

Nice new addition :)

Those are cool little snakes. I've wanted one for a long time, but because I've got very limited room to keep snakes, I'm sticking to one species for now.

Nice looking little guy! IIRC, those are ridiculously easy to breed. If you get a female you could end up with dozens.

I name my all reptiles after ancient gods... so if i find him a girlfriend she for sure gonna be "Ishtar" :P

Congrats on the new addition! African house snakes are soooo cute :D It's like they took a colubrid and tried to give it a ball python face lol, At least that's how it looks to me :P

P.S. I love all your name choices! I'm using the ancient God theme for my T's: I've got Thor, Freya, Hel and I've got one coming in a couple weeks who's going to be named Skadi :D

Nice pickup buddy! :gj:

Regards,

B

This is exactly how the look :D take slender colubrid put on front small python head with viper like eyes :gj::gj::gj:

And from i heard and seen on pictures when they eat they behave exactly like small pythons :D

Will attempt feeding today maybe will shoot some video but for now some better photos..

He have some little scaring and a bit of stuck shed.. but mind that is a WC animal.. hopefully with couple more shed he will looks even better

ENJOY:

Size comparison is illusive.. this is small RBI hide and he looks so tiny but he IS LONGER than he looks
