    Or Gwny for short. I wanted to name her Pochi, but my fiance wanted something more dignified lol. I think I got the most docile baby ball ever. She was born this May, and is already super tame. She just lays in your hand. Hilariously the opposite of Orochimaru. I don't think she knows what stress is. No heavy breathing or hissing after an almost two hour car ride. She hasn't shown any interest in hides, is just laying on top of one basking. My dad was very confused, he asked why she wasn't hiding lol. Unfortunately she does have a bit of the spider wobble. It doesn't appear to affect her much, I've only seen it happen if she lifts too much of herself up and backwards. Even though she's 100 grams and Orochimaru was 90 when I got him, she feels smaller to me. Here's my little Mojave Bee.

    Good looking snake. Don't let the wobble throw you. Nora has a bit of one. It's really jut a bit of her personality though. Nothing like a BP that will :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r: it's head sideways like a dog when it looks at you. My only real suggestion is during feeding time get the prey very close to her. The wobble shows up most when they are excited, and can throw the strike off target. A mouth full of rodent is much better than a mouth full of substrate. Congrats on the new addition!

    X2, I learned this when I got my Spinnerblast. Definitely use feeding tongs instead of your hand, too. :)

    XD Its a Rams helmet snack bowl that I used for a water bowl. When she cork screwed and dunked her head in I got paranoid she would get stuck in there and drown. Went to the store and got a dog bowl lol. I actually got her dunking her head on video, will have to post it.

    Took me a minute to figure out what word you were using :P
    Probably auto-censored by whatever programming code powers the forums due to a certain other usage for that word.

    XD Guess they want you to use "tilt" instead of the word that starts with a "c" and ends with a "k". I knew what you meant though lol.
