Finally got some pics of her!

So this is my 2 month old. I realize she is a normal and not all that exotic, but I think she looks beautiful! I was told by the lady I got her from there was something unique in her markings but I didn't quite understand what she meant. Anything out of the ordinary with her that you guys can see?

Also, we haven't picked a name yet. Any suggesstions?

Looks like a very nice normal to me! Congrats!

Thanks Jordan!

She is 2 months old by the way.

I think what she meant by "unique markings" is that she doesnt have any "ALIEN HEADS"

Alien heads are the little black circles that are usually found inside the brown cloud markings on her sides

I dont know if im explaining it correctly, so I aplogize if I am not giving a very good description

Ok, so is that something that is desireable or not in normals?

Its all personal preference.

Some people like the alien heads, some dont

It coems down to two things:

1: Do you like more pattern on the snake? If so you would probably enjoy a snake that has alien heads on it more

2: do you like less pattern? if you enjoy less pattern on a snake then a snake with little to no alien heads would be a good choice

Also remember, that the pattern on a snake is not all that important. as long as you love your animal as an individual everything will be good :gj:

Thanks! Like I said, I think she is beautiful. And has a wonderful temperment so far.

no problem :) have fun with her! in no time she'll be a 4 - 5 footer and 1500 - 3000 grams!

Seems like shes got a great home :gj:

She's cute :D

:whisper: My fave snake is still the first one I ever got - a gorgeous normal. Just don't tell the others :ninja:

Thanks Dr Del.

Oh. And she ate like a champ today! No issues at all after her "incident" with the sticky stuff the other night. The store I have to use had no hoppers so I feed her 2 pinkies/almost fuzzies. She took both of them, licked her lips, posed for a pic or two and disappeared for the next night or two I am sure.

Thank you again!!!!

She is gorgeous you are very lucky and personal preference means who cares what anyone says she is your snake and you love her very much :P

Congrats on your first bp! I'm glad she's eating for you! Tough feeders are a headache! I'm dealing with a tough mojo right now. I gave him his hide back, so we'll see. His hide is like his blankey I guess :rolleyes: (I would never suggest not using hides in a tank).

What a cutie! Congrats!

She is just adorable!

She's absolutely gorgeous! To be completely honest, I think that normals are the most beautiful balls that there are.

Keep an eye out. Third Picture in her neck shows dehydration

Thanks for pointing this out! I am wondering though if it might not be due to the fact she had been underfed by her previous owner who was feeding her a pinkie every 2 weeks. She seems to be drinking just fine for me. Always has plenty of water available ( in fact, she has 2 water dishes in her tank, one is part of the hide I just got her and another that is bigger).

She is getting fed more frequent and larger meals now. We have had her a little over a week now so I am betting it is going to take a little for her to "catch up" after being under fed.
