I added a few pics to the original gallery Here. There are pics showing the back and tail. If you can ID her pattern for me I would appreciate it. As it is, I really don't care what she is because she is beautiful and has an amazingly easy going personality.
As for eating, we were told to feed her adult mice, but the first one we offered her got ignored, so we tried a hopper the next feeding and she took it. I could see that the hopper was too small, but I just want to get her eating with us and then I can adjust her rations. I am also thinking of trying to switch her to rat pups, but again, after a few meals of what she is used to.
thanks to all for the comments and encouragement.

P.S. I did not realize how difficult it is to photograph these creatures in a way that captures their beauty. I can do that with mammal pets, kids, my partner, but snakes are a whole new photographic territory for me, so excuse my learning curve resulting in sub-par pictures.
