    Mine all get names eventually, but I don't feel rushed about it. If it takes a few weeks then it doesn't really matter, you're going to have the pet a lot longer than that!

    Sometimes I have names prepicked though. I know the next two are going to be Sookie and Bill :)

    Only have 1 ball.

    Her name is Indy. Had to go the Indiana Jones route because he is afraid of snakes. Thought it would be ironic. =)

    I have named all my snakes so far although once I get into the 20+ range I may have to think about abandoning it. I have a LONG way to go though.

    They are:
    Fluffy(Normal Male) He was my first bp.. Dont ask lol :D
    Bee (Pastel Female) Named her because my goal with her is to hatch out a bumblebee
    Casper(Hypo Male) Hoping to get a axanthic female for him and start on a true ghost project
    Beauty(Lesser Female) Her name just came. Every time I open the tub I think about how pretty she is so I just names her Beauty.
    I also have a normal girl whose name shall either be Hissy Fit or Feisty because every time I go to pick her up she hisses and wants to eat me :taz:

    I named my BP Balthazar, Because it just sounds like the name of someone you wouldn't want to mess with. I used to have some carpets that I started naming after the deadly sin they had characteristics of.( IE the lazy Jaya was Sloth, The bright yellow JxD was Pride, and the testy Jungle was wrath.) but they all passed in a house fire.

    Yeah, im gonna name my first snake, but if I ever started breeding and got alot of snakes or something then i would just call it what it is. like the female pastel. or what ever. maby if it came to where i had multiple females or males of the same morph i would make a system. shortened. or maby just number them. Female pastel 1 2 3 ECT. in the order i got them...
