Pretty snake. I love seeing balls relax. I'm getting more and more into how spiders look.
Since I saw toys in your pics, I wonder, as someone who has little nieces visiting sometimes and will first get her first snake, I wonder; what's the infection risk? I'm afraid to have the snake on any surface they would walk/crawl since they still stick their dirty fingers and other things in their mouths, and have heard salmonella från snakes is a big issue. Could you give any tips? How big is the infection risk?

Re: Our new addition!
Lol I have four kids under 6 three boys an got custody of my husbands daughter since beginning of the year. We have two balls right now and they are only allowed to handle the spider since he's bigger than our normal. We make sure EVERY time the kids hold him we wash their hands really really good. Our 6 year old has done started asking for his first snake and so has our 4 1/2 year old lol. As for right now they can just share the ones we have until daddy decides on when they can get one :-)

Great pick up! Looks like he might be het for something with that white speckling along the sides. Check with the person you brought him from to be sure. Good luck! :rolleyes:

I'm not trying to be rude or start any kind of drama by any means, but I've seen multiple posts of yours like this and it's starting to irk me a bit. You keep telling people their snakes look het this or het that or like a morph it obviously isn't. Just in case you aren't aware, hets usually don't look "visual". There's the possible "train tracks" of het pieds, or the possible busy patterning of het clowns, but you can't look at an animal and say it's het for something. The only way you can say an animal is het for something, or possibly het for something, is if you produced it yourself or bought it from a reputable breeder.
ETA: all spiders have the white on their sides. It's also variable. This one happens to only have a little bit.
