Hello

I would like to say a few things here as I introduce myself. I have looked over your site and it seems to be friendly. I was once very high up in another forum. after awhile things kind of turned on me. the "real owner of this forum was no longer with us and let`s say thew natives turned on me for some reason. I have been leary of signing on to another forum because of that. So, I came across your site and I like the rules. Here I am. I come from Worcester Massachusetts and have 3 Pythons and 2 Boas, all ranging from very large to very small.
I would like to start by reading a little more in the forum. I will begin in the "introduce yourself" section. Maybe I will get to know some of you that way. From what I have read so far, I like. Everyone seems to be nice and very serious about their passion and that is the type of group I am looking for. So thank you for letting me in your forum and I think I will like it here. I am hoping to make some new freinds here and to share information and eventualy get to show of my beloved snakes and my new iguana.:snake::)

Welcome to BP.net :gj: Any questions you may have feel free to ask!!!

:welcome: Hello. This is an awesome site, with tons of helpful people. They are all great. There is the occasional hair pulling and eye gouging, but most of the time it gets stomped in the dirt.

Can't wait for some pics. :)

I was wondering if this is a forum for JUST ball pythons, or are we also discussing other types of snakes and reptiles? Lets start out with my balhttp://i588.photobucket.com/albums/s...h_100_0695.jpgl python, "Rid****" I was told he is a mojave, but he looks dark in this picture. It realy doesn`t do him justice.

We have sections for quite a few snake species and lizards. :)

I'm afraid rid**** isn't a mojave but he looks nice all the same. :gj:

Thank you for the welcomes. Yes, I did figure out he wasn`t a Mojave. I think to the person I got him from saw that he had a lighter colored face than any regular ball, that he asumed he was a Mojave. He is a ham, though. As you can see, he loves to pose for pictures. I have many more photos of all 5 constrictors that I keep and I am somewhat of a shutterbug. I LOVE to show them off. It will take a little time to get used to the way this forum is layed out, so Admin, Please bear with me. I will get used to this before I write many more posts. Thank you.

Well we love pictures!

Just an FYI, Rid**** there looks to have a little stuck shed on his back that you might want to soak off. It should be coming off in one piece or a few large pieces.

well pictures you shall have!! I have so many and so many new ones I haven`t put in my computer yet. Give me some time and you will have more than you would wish for! :)

Rid**** was a rescue from a person that heavily neglected him. He was infested with mites and had been burnt with a heat rock!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad: So, what you are seeing, unfortunately, are scars from that. I am hoping through the years that he will eventually shed them off, and the scars will not be so noticable... He is a ham and loves to pose for pictures!! What a sweetie!!!:snake::D I absolutely adore him. I have lots of good pictures of him. I just got a new computer because my other one crashed. Therefore I need to transfer my back ups to this on and also take some new ones off my phone and camera. In the next few days, I will have everything up to par.:D:D Good eye,though. and thank you for noticing.

Hm strange. I don't see any scars on his back where the stuck shed is :(

They are hard to see in the photos, but If you saw him in person, you would understand what I am speaking about. you are also looking at an older picture, maybe that`s where I am getting confused. I do assure you that he is well kept. and I pay attention(sometimes obsessively) to these things. I thank you for the observation, though.

I looked at the enlarged pictures of Rid****, and now I see what you are talking about. yeah, old picture. I thank you for your advice. also appreciate it. His scars are less noticable now that he has been with me for around 2 years. you were very nice to notice my snake . i want to tank you again.;)
