My Weekend Rescue...

12 years and all the poor thing had was a hot rock? sheesh, some snakies are survivors arent they?

You should name him Rasputin.

Nice work!

Sounds like one healthy durable snake! I like the white creeping up on his belly. He's a big boy! I'll bet he's never mated and if gets a sniff and a hold of one of your females they'll be a whole lotta shakin goin on! :carrot:

Maybe you should name him after one of the Survivor winners.

I wish you both the best. :salute:

Congrats on the new addition, I bet he's glad you were there to come to his rescue! :D He looks pretty flippin sweet!

I vote 3!!! Great job! :sunny:

THanks guys! Here's another picture of him around my neck to show his size again... I still can't get over how big he is for a male myself.

:rockon:

He's a good looking snake :D ... I've got about a dozen male morphs sitting in my racks that are either that size or getting there ... and then lots of little runts that are breeding their cloacas off!! :P

Oh heck I need new pics of our big male, Malachi, whose only a year and a half old. He's a big, BIG boy too LOL. Eats like a storm trooper and always has. Some of these males get some size on them too.

Glad to hear this poor fellow is in better hands and you are carefully picking his forever home. Sounds like he sure deserves a better life than the one he's had.

Jo,

Malachi's daddy is HUGE ... one of the biggest albinos I've ever seen ... and his mom was no slouch size wise either, but that seems to be the case with all of my girls ... I like big girls. :D

I figured he must be carrying the genes for big LOL. He's a super eater as he was with you as a baby and he just seems built to turn every last ounce of prey into growing ability. Haven't weighed him lately as he's doing his first breedings this year but last one was 1,200 grams and that was awhile back. Not fat either, just big, long and solid as a brick wall...that's Malachi! When Vince met him the first time he could not get over him...kept saying "this is a male????" LOL (and Mal is all boy!) It will be very cool if he passes this on to his offspring. :)
