    Snow day photos
    Tried to take advantage of all the natural light coming in. Ball pythons minus my pastel female who is shedding. Definitely need to look into getting a nicer camera that focuses better. Here they are!



    Cleo, my normal female. Rescued off of a glue trap in a pet store. You can still see scarring on her neck, but it seems to be purely aesthetic at this point.

    Pandora, my mojave female.

    Dante, my newest albino male. Love him. Wasn't at all moved by albino ball pythons until I saw this guy in person.

    Apollo, my lesser male.

    Maybe down the road I'll add my dream morph, a hypo-mojave male. Now where is that tax return???

    Thanks! I really love the reduced pattern on both her and my albino. She has some really pretty yellowing down her sides towards her belly as well.

    Really nice collection! How does a BP get stuck on a glue trap in a pet store? And why would a pet store put a glue trap down in the first place?

    She got loose at a local Petsmart. They have glue traps around the building for mice and bug control. They randomly found her, but didn't know how to get her off so just pulled and subsequently had to take her to the vet. After she started eating and having semi- successful sheds again they offered to adopt her to me since she was no longer sell-able due to the scarring. Their loss, my win! She's so laid back and my biggest BP girl at present. Full recovery!

    In regards to that store, I'm pretty sure the vet talked to them about how to get animals off the traps if this ever happened again using corn oil or something.

    Say no more LOL I should have known. Bet they use ECOLAB for pest control. ECOLAB uses the same freaking control protocol no matter what the situation. Doesn't matter if it's Sam's Club or PetSmart. One size fits all. Corporate America is why Rome will eventually fall...

    Lovely little collection! I'm not usually an albino fan but that's one sharp looking albino you have. That normal from the glue trap is also looking pretty good now...I have to admit I work at a chain store and we sadly had a similar situation just last friday. He's already on the mend and cruising his cage pretty happily after stitches and a weekend at the vets office but had torn himself up pretty badly before we found him. I didn't mean to hijack your photo thread, it just heartens me to see such a great looking snake who came from the same situation! :D
