I've Got a New Baby! Introducing Skittles

I finally crossed over into the world of colubrids and this little guy is the reason why! Who could resist him? He's an albino striped California kingsnake!

And boy is he hard to photograph! But these pictures actually came out better than I had hoped. This is right before he was transferred to his tub and offered a f/t pinky (they told me they are awesome eaters, and he's already eaten and gone into his hide!)

He's awesome! Good excuse to get into colubrids!

He is so cute!!!!!!! I love the stripe!!!!!! Welcome to the side in which you might get musked! lol
Congratulations!!

Skittles is easy on the eyes. Maybe when I get a bigger place I can get some colubrids.

Hey Robin, Skittles is awesome, I fell in love with that little guy at the hotel when I saw him, Kingsnakes are cool little snakes, just don't have the room to add Colubrids right now, but maybe in the future. Also, Caitlin is pretty stoked that she picked out the little guys name!

Beautiful reverse stripe Albino Cali :gj: Great to see more Kings on the forum :D

Love it! Kings are just freakin awesome :D. I've got two albino kings right now that I think are just the coolest snakes lol. Just enough attitude to keep me on my toes and they are both my little garbage disposals lol. Congrats that is one beautiful snake!

he looks like laffy taffy not skittles.:D

Caitlin did awesome with the naming! We never did manage to come up with a last name for him though.

You can make room for one teeny tiny worm, can't you?

He does sort of look like Laffy Taffy, doesn't he? :)

Congrats on the new little worm. Those are great pics. :gj:

I'm hoping to get a little worm in the future myself, a sunglow motley corn for me though.
