Took the boys to the park this weekend....(major DU warning!)
I like to "let the snakes explore their natural world" sometimes, just to get a little more stimulation than what's inside their cage. So, I took them to the park on one of those warm days and had a picnic lunch too.
I was "showing" Percy a flower to see what he'd think....

Amazingly enough, Percy is my little biter..he was very well behaved and did not even strike at me even once the whole trip!!!

Enjoy!!...can't wait till end of April beginning of May....this beautiful park will be just bursting with tulip trees and rolling hills full of yellow daffodils.....

Percy's got some different looking head patterns there...!
Re: Took the boys to the park this weekend....(major DU warning!)
Percy is definitely a looker!
Re: Took the boys to the park this weekend....(major DU warning!)
Gee Crystal I didn't realize just how pretty Percy is.:sweeet: How old is he now?
How do you handle all those snakes. If they're anything like my kids I'd be running all over the place catching up to one and yelling at the other one to stay out of the water:D
By the way how are your new girls doing?
Re: Took the boys to the park this weekend....(major DU warning!)
wow ! what an amazing little snake, he is so beautiful
Re: Took the boys to the park this weekend....(major DU warning!)
Those are awesome pictures! Love all the flower shots, but the one by the water, I think, is especially beautiful. Looks like he's gazing out over the water, contemplating the meaning to some deeply philosophical question. (Such as whether grey rats taste better than white ones... LOL)
I would be SO paranoid about taking my snakes out to someplace like that. I'm a nervous wreck just taking them out into the back yard! LOL Always afraid they'll dash off suddenly and get away from me or get stuck down a drain or something equally inaccessible.
Re: Took the boys to the park this weekend....(major DU warning!)
The park is very "open" with no real place for them to sueeze into and be unaccessable, and for the first 20 mins or so we were there, we had the whole park to ourselves. Also, i didn't have all three boys out at the same time...just one at a time, then back in the "toasty snake transporter". they were all very curious, but i kept a hawk's eye on them at all times.
Re: Took the boys to the park this weekend....(major DU warning!)
Oh wow, what beautiful pics! I love the flower investigating, too cute!
Re: Took the boys to the park this weekend....(major DU warning!)
Love that head pattern on Percy. Absolutley beautiful.

Thanks Damian...he is one of my own.....if you think Percy is purdy, you should see his brother....
