My lights are crap and turn him brown as soon as that part of him isn't in focus. I'm loving his gold and his nice green/blue/grey eyes. He's my first, eventually going to look into getting some morphs but alas my favorites are all the expensive variety and I'm not interested in breeding, so they'll have to wait til I get my hands on some more cash :P This are about 2.5 weeks old, right after his last shed.

I hadn't realized normals could have such bright eyes.

Pretty boy! Welcome to the forum!

Very pretty. Normals are amazing. They vary so widely with shades and shapes. Mine has light eyes too, and seem to have gotten lighter/golder as he grew up. Give that boy some rats! He's a little worm :aww:

There's the snake pics! I saw your other post with the 55gal tank.
Great looking, healthy snake!

He's a great looking Normal!! Welcome to BP.net!

x2. I was impressed with the setup you had in the other thread. He looks healthy to me, now you just gotta start beefing him up lol.

Great looking Bp, and welcome to Bp.net

Hee, thanks everyone. I hope he keeps his pretty coloring as he gets older, he's won a lot of people's hearts with his contrast. I personally picked him because I don't like blushing so much but love the way the white traces the outline of his stripes.

He is a little thin there :P I wasn't considering the weight of his food back then, just the girth, but he's starting to get the fat bp butt now that I give him two mice per feeding. Totals to 35g which is just around the 14% mark. He gets rats once he's done powering through his 50 frozen mice. He's a great eater, convinced him to take his first meal 4 days after he'd been shipped, so I don't think I'll have a problem switching him this early.

He's opaque so I don't want to pull him out of the tank just to take some pictures. Don't think he'd bite me as last time I hadn't realized he was in shed and took him out before seeing that he had cloudy eyes and he had the same personality as ever. When he finishes shedding I'll take some more pictures :3

Wow!!! Really pretty snake! :gj: Sounds like you're doing great with him too.

Congrats!

Regards,

B

We've shed! Another one-piecer, think I'm starting to get the hang of this.

This was him last shed, I was in the middle of treating some minor burns on his belly (my fault, used a broken uth that has since been replaced), but I made the pleasant discovery that he didn't want to bite me even while blind. Also shows off his dramatic color change from shed to post-shed.

Nice contrast between the dirtier shed colors and his usual ones, I'd say.

Mouse: And I say to myself, what a wonderful woooooooooooorld :P
Weaner #2 he decided to take butt-first. Don't ask me why, he's the one who grabs all his mice by the side.
