    Arjana just doesn't look like a hatchling anymore.. :(
    I guess she is officially a juvenile. She is getting "big". Doesn't even look like it in the pictures, but she is pretty long now.
    Growing like a weed. Always ready for food, too. She used to be very shy and jumpy, always in her hides, but now she is laying right in the front of her tub in plain view, just in case I didn't see the head sticking out of the hide in the "feed me now" position.

    She was the most "tense" Ball Python I've had, but the regular yet short handling sessions have paid off. So much more relaxed now. I think it works better to handle for short sessions and return them before they get frantic or ball up, rather then to flood them with long handling sessions. We always end on a good note, LOL.

    Love this glow worm ;) Had to delete most pictures because they were blurry, she wouldn't stop moving. But here are a couple that turned out ok..

    I think she is going into shed, as she was just a tad duller then normal.

    I think all of your snakes are absolutely stunning but Arjana is my favorite! How old is she now?

    Thank you :) She is a little over 7 month old and she weighed 422 gr before she ate her last meal.

    She reminds me a bit of my 5-6 month old pastel vanilla :) I really should get a scale for her. I got her on the 21st of February so I haven't handled her at all yet.

    What size prey do you give her? Adult mice?

    When I got he she was at 172 gr and ate live rat pups. After she settled in at my house I offered a FT rat pup and she took it in less then a second, LOL. After a while she was on 2 rat pups per feeding, because I had so many pups.
    Last feeding was her first rat weanling, and it didn't even leave a bump hardly ;)

    Guess she is now on ft rat weanlings.
