Little Saku!

I decided to name my little girl Saku! It means blossom in Japanese and I felt it was very fitting.

She's coming up on a year old now and she went off feed for a little bit during the winter so she's still trying to gain weight back but otherwise she's a fantastic eater! She is just the sweetest little thing, she's so handleable and she's so good at just curling up and hanging out while I watch TV or do other things. She's very curious but she doesn't wander too far from me either when I have her out and I love that about her. I just upgraded her from a 20 gallon long to a luxurious 40 gallon with a waterfall. She's living the princess life she so deserves!

I can't thank you enough @Albert Clark https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e17e994711.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...409a70ce7e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...d542c16d8c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9ade179fe2.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b8d7e35b2d.jpg

Your inspirational story continues. For those that missed the pilot episode, you can catch it here: https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...-corkscrewing!

Her name fits her beautifully- and you've done a great job on her home too. Wonderful update! Just a word of caution- don't get complacent about snakes that "never go too far" when out & about with you- when you least expect it, they play "hide & seek" much better than you'd ever suspect- :D

Oh yeah I definitely keep an eye on her, especially because she has been known to pee outside of her tank on multiple occasions haha.

So she's mindful about housekeeping too- her house anyway, not yours so much! :rofl:

Word to the wise: when you take her out, carefully check the profile of her underside- when a snake "has to go" soon, they generally look a little "puffy" above their vent (aka cloaca), & in that case, handling caution is advised until you know the snake has relieved itself. The thing is, moving about, and especially being handled by us, usually hastens their elimination. ;) Been there...

Saku is beautiful.

:bow:

She’s pretty awesome ! Her pad is decked out as well 👌
