Looking good as always Spaz. What are your feeding her these days?

Looking great.

Thanks guys! Right now she is eating small rats, once a week. She also has the best temperament of any pit I have ever met :)

Beautiful example you own there Spaz for sure!

Love those subtle brown tones turning to that deep red, just lovely.

Thank you! I agree, her colors are magnificent. She is a big dork though, today I took her out of her enclosure and she decided she wanted to tube to come with her :P\

I had her out yesterday and for some reason she decided to go into this small tupperware container I had out. It probably smelled interesting, as I had just fed my crested gecko some roaches in there.

Wow Spaz, your girl is looking great and growing like a weed!

Thanks! :) She is getting so huge now, its almost time to get her upgraded into her permanent adult cage. Soooo excited!

beautiful snake, and great pics!!!! all i have is my phone to take pics with but would love to have a nice camera some day.

Thank you! :)

Didn't realize she was in the early stages of shed when I was taking these, but even in shed she is oddly sweet for a gopher :)

She's growing fast Spaz. Looks like she might be a big girl. Keep the pics coming! :D

Thanks! She seems like she will be a big girl too :) She just shed today and is looking excellent!

She was way too energetic for me to set her on the floor today, so more in-hand pics!

Beautiful.

I was corresponding with a breeder about an available female. Was ready to go ahead with the purchase, but then found I needed to replace one of our existing t-stats. Our pecan crop was a bust this year, so there is not a lot of discretionary fun money to work with right now.

Hoping to find a nice one later this Spring.

Well guys, I have made the decision today to rehome Cedella. I love her to death, but with me concentrating on Navi(my BRB) and Tali’s(my scrub python) enclosures I feel as if I am not giving this girl as much as I should, she is incredibly smart and for the cage she deserves I just don’t have the time to build it. However, she is just moving down the road so I am gonna be able to see her when ever I want. The family getting her already has a huge 7 ft enclosure planned for her so I am incredibly happy she is going there :) Part of the reason I am giving her up is also because she wasn’t originally planned, she was given to us by someone who couldn’t care for her so all my other snakes planned cages are coming first. I love this girl to death but I think it will be better for her :)

Sorry she had to go spaz but I'm glad you found a good home for her. I'll miss the pictures though :).

It has been a while! So due to a medical condition that popped up in her new owner, she was surrendered back to me. I have no idea if this will be permanent, but at least for now you guys will get to enjoy more pics of her! :D
