Thank you so much Hila! It will be exciting to see how her colors change as she grows <3 Any news about your Dumeril clutch??
Just a torturous waiting game! You know how it goes.

How are you enjoying your first colubrid? Soooooo different from a BP huh?
Haha will do! She gets fed today so hopefully I'll get some decent shots (a task within itself haha).
OMG it's entirely different worlds and I'm absolutely loving it! It's been so satisfying watching her do literally everything and using every inch of her tub!
Definitely makes me appreciate handling sessions with Tapioca since Kallari is much more quicker than I'm used to :p I feel like I have to really keep an eye on her to make sure she doesnt slip off haha. Gosh and the tiny size!!
She's VERY fun but Tapioca is more relaxing in comparison haha. Perfect balance :)

Hahahhaha, yup, handling is such a different adventure. I'm glad I've had hatchlings and juvenile Kings and corns, and hognose. Watching them grow from tiny little things is very rewarding. But, my days of young colubrids are behind me. They're so much easier to handle as sub-adults and adults. They youngins are just sooooo quick and when they're that small can disappear very quickly.
I loved having them as juveniles, but the constant hand-over-hand-over-hand isnt for me anymore. I've slowed down in my old age, so they're too quick for me.
I wouldn't trade the experience, but if I add any more colubrids they'll be sub-adults or adults.
