Say hello, Coco!

I just got my first lil' White Diamond noodle on Sunday from Vin Russo at the NY metro Reptile show :)! When I held her at the Expo, she was pretty calm, didn't ball up, and wasn't wandering in her bin. I dubbed Coco! So far she's settling in and looks to be content in her hot side hide during the day! She seems pretty mellow, no hissing, no striking and she didn't ball up after a brief handling this morning, a bit of tongue flicking after her breathing settled. She only balled up when I put her back into her enclosure T_T Phone camera gives me Andre the Giant Manhands... o_O

Just a note too, Vin was great with communication via email and has been patient with all my noob questions. His responses are usually short and concise as he seems to be a really busy chap. He's got a great sense of humor, and answered any concerns I had!

Question for other BEL and experienced owners, to me, it looks like her eyes are beginning to cloud over. What do you guys think?

Awesome ball python!!!! I've always wanted a "lil diamond noodle". Such a cool morph. congrats!

:welcome:
welcome to the forum!

not cloudy, but she does have the "bug eye" deformation that comes with the morph and some other BELs. this does not cause any issues for the snake, and some people find them cute!

Aww, how adorable! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the nice welcome and love everyone ;)
