    Falkor & the Oracle pics
    Sorry about posting that panic post in general, I didn't think to post it over here. :oops: I do know to post random corn pics here though, and I got some good ones the other day after he was feeling better. Falkor *loves* the sphinx statue in his tank, and likes to explore all over it as well as bask on it's feet. I try to keep the camera close at hand for when he does cute stuff like this.

    That and his bonsai hide are his absolute favorites. Everything else is just in his way. :rolleyes: Except for the occassionally useful water bowl.

    Here's an older one too, I made this out of my favorite pic of him. This was taken shortly after he arrived from SMR and spruced up in Photoshop.

    Thank you :) Some of our family members (outside of the household that is) are very squicky about snakes, so my fiancee and I brainstormed for the most harmless sweet lovable name possible to help subtly win them over. Who can resist a cute little luck dragon? It's one of our faves too. /(^v^)\

    The Oracle was a lucky find on e-bay! He loves it too, it was perfect.

    I really like that last picture, and the quote is very nice too. :D

    I loved that movie as a kid, but I haven't seen it forever. I agree that statue couldn't be more perfect. :lmao:

    Okay how many times can I say awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. That is so darned cute! He is a fantastic miami phase, one of my personal favorite of the many cornsnake morphs. Lovely enclosure you've got him in too it looks like.

    Great pics...and great movie to name your critters after as well. My male BP's are Atreyu and Bastian....had a female named Moon Child...but she died.

    Where did you find the Oracle statues? Those are way cool. :)

    Thanks guys! Bastien, Moon Child, and Atreyu are awesome names, we almost named Falkor Atreyu. Glad I'm not the only 80s fantasy geek around here ;) The last pic was my fave. A magical moment I caught the same day we got him. It gives me all kinds of warm fuzzies.

    It was a tough choice between a Miami Phase and a Hurricane Anery . They're both my faves of the corn colorations, and maybe we'll get a female Anery someday. :) They're all gorgeous though.

    Ooh, here we go, I found the Oracle statue elsewhere! I had to look up Greek Sphinx rather than just Sphinx. /(^v^)\ Very cute.

    Here's an old pic of Falkor's cage, actually I took this before we even got him. You can tell because the UTH isn't plugged in, lol. Between his preferences and us it's been rearranged a bit since, and we keep waffling on substrates. I might just end up switching over to Carefresh since we use that for the rabbits too.

    The water dish is a fancy cat dish that just happened to beautifully fit the theme. :) Wish it was as easy to do the BP's tank all thematic with his name, but it's harder to find Addam's Family tank decor/pet dishes, lol.

    If you want to go for an Adam's family theme. Just go for haunted houses, black, black and more black, and then see if there's a Lurch statue on good ole ebay. ;)
