    Achilles and Indiga!
    Here are a couple of pictures!

    When she was a baby and I was still going back and forth between spelling, Indiga or Indika. I had just picked her up from the Sacramento Reptile Show! Didn't plan on buying a snake just went for fun, but I fell in love with her so she came home with me.

    This was before feeding a few months back, she takes the sink, while Achilles gets the bathtub.

    This is Achilles when he was a little guy. He used to always tangle himself in my hair, sometimes he still tries but he's too heavy so I put him around my neck.

    This is his favorite spot in my room, on the bookshelf. He climbed it once, great exercise! I watched him to make sure he didn't fall, but was still impressive.

    Cute pics, but I would recommend feeding them in their enclosure, rather than moving them to feed, which can stress them out.

    Thank you guys for your comments!

    Although, I have always been told the opposite when it comes to feeding. I've actually been informed that enclosure feeding can cause aggressive behaviors by quite a few collectors, but then again I'm not a professional just a pet owner. My snakes have never had an issue with feeding, and seem to be very aware of what it means when they are in the bathroom. I never take them in the bathroom unless it is to feed because their posturing changes quite a bit and I don't want to tempt them to bite me or tease them. But thank you for the advice, and if I ever have any issues I will change their eating habits.
