My new anaconda (DU warning)

Well, I picked up the bad boy today. He's around 6.5'. He's pretty calm, though he did try biting me twice in the usual sideways swipe anaconda way. He missed. :D It was half-hearted.. and I don't blame him. Moving to a new home is stressful.

Anyway, here he is! Oh yeah, and he's a granite morph, and a proven breeder. I have one of his offspring (Lurch is my baby male annie)

Dunno what he got on his face.. I think he needs to take a bath. He's got a nice big water tub in his boaphile!

wow, he is very cool lookin. i love that last pic, i think it would be pretty cool for HOTM.

Thanks Marshall. I was thinking of HOTM too.

great looking conda shelby, looks like calcium or mineral build up on his face I have seen it several times on snakes that tend to spend large amounts of time in the water in a area that has hard water, I have to treat my water or all mine would get it.

That was what my guess was, Sean. We have very hard water here.

Granites are so pretty! The local I bought my BPs from had a young pair of granites that were gorgeous, however very tempermental. Glad to hear yours is pretty calm.

Congratulations! His colors are beautiful...what's his name? =)

He doesn't yet have a name. I'm thinking.

My next female annie will probably be Nagini.. but this one's a boy, so I don't know.. The other two annies are Lurch and Rusalka.

anaconda's have the most interesting face sometimes- you really capture some spirit in those pics, he looked like "what? what did i do?"
-lol- what was that on his face?

Yeah he does have that 'I'm innocent.. really!' look on his face.

Annies have the cutest bug eyes.
