Piebald Progression Journal

Last week I walked into a large chain petstore and found this little guy; dehydrated, skinny, and stuck in layers of retained shed. After much back and fourth with management, I convinced them to adopt /him/ out and will be updating this thread with his progress! I'm not sure of the sex yet, as I'm trying to handle little as possible right now-- but for now I'll use he.

To begin with, here is a video I took when he was still up for sale.

You got him? Yay! I saw a thread for this a while back. Post some pictures!

It's really great what you did for that little guy/girl. Hope he/she makes a full recovery.

This evening I brought Mr.unnamed home in the middle of a massive thunderstorm. After a crazy ride home, I had just got him settled in his bin when BAM, power outage. Sigh. But, luckily the house was warm enough to keep the critters comfortable for a few hours until it came back on. When I finally had light to see him properly, this is what I saw;

Shed removed, looks like our biggest issues are that irritated burn/blister and needing some groceries!

Today I am very pleased to say that he ate a small mouse, fresh killed, without even thinking twice about it! I was so worried that he'd be on strike whatwith all the changes and such, but phew. What a relief. No new photos yet, as I'm trying not to stress him.. But I promise to take some in the next few days. Name ideas anyone? It's kinda hard without knowing gender, but I hate not having anything to call /him/!

I am glad he/she ate. What about Zeus or one of the Greek gods?

Great job brother! Are you quarantining him at all? Glad he has you to take care of him. Good that he ate, probably was very hungry. Since he came home in a storm how about that name? Storm is a unisex name. Good luck and thanks again for stepping up! :gj:

Fantastic job! Look forward to the progress :)

Name it Dave. I always like it when pets have people names.

If a snake is strong enough and hungry it will eat.

Guess you can name him/her - STORM- sounds just about right with what the snake's been through literally / figuratively . Glad to hear it ate - it's always a good sign when they eat. Happy for you!
