Milton, meet BP.net!

Today I was able to go pick up an adoption from Roxie's Fund in Maryland. I found this little guy on petfinder and thought he was too cute to pass up. He was seized from a home that was not taking care of over 20 animals! I'm so excited he is here now and has a good home.

Anyways, without further adieu, here is Milton!

Probably his first bath

Looks like he might have had a rough time?

That's an awesome stripe on his back!

I also like what you did with the acu-rite & the zip tie.

I was thinking the samething. Glad to see he got good owner now.

I bet he's a very happy snake now. Do watch the cool side temps, a slight bump up wouldn't be a bad idea. Not to worry you, and it may just be the angle of that head shot or my cruddy computer monitor, but it did look a bit to me like he's slightly swollen around his mouth area. Have you had a good peek inside just to check for issues that way?

WOOOOOOOHA..Now that is a cool normal....Congrats!!...He's really cool looking.

Ya, I only have one thermometer in his tank right now. There's a piece of 11" flexwatt under there that reaches a little under the cool side hide. Once I get him to something more permanent, he'll have 2 UTHs , more vent holes, 2 t-meters, a stat, and smaller hides.

I see what you mean about his head. I think it is the angle and my camera phone though. When I was holding him, he is pretty skinny all around. I'll check tomorrow when I pull him out to put more holes in the tank.

He is also going to get a trip to the vet too. Just need to set one up near Baltimore.

Love the solid stripe, very nice:)

That is one of the coolest normals the stripe is killer

Wicked! Love that stripe! Very nice!:)

Thanks for the compliments. Someone had mentioned in another post that he has some harlequin or wide stripe traits, but he looks like a normal with a stripe and missing alien heads to me.

Hes been sitting under his warm hide for a while. Hes finally poking his head out now :) I'm thinking I might get him some smaller hides, he is a little smaller than I thought.
