    Update on My House Snakes... New Pictures.... Feeding time as well!!! (DUW)
    With all craziness in my life lately i dont have 2 many occasion to post any Updates but today in My day off I had occasion to grab My camera and snap some updated pictures...


    My first and greatest Marduk.... He topping hefty 183 grams on Scale even if he take small adult mice or rat pup every 2 weeks... sometimes Honestly I wonder if he was properly sexed lolz

    http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/...s/P1010561.jpg

    Little Seth is doing fine He got from 23g to nice 69 g and got Upgraded to hopper mice... He is little Shy but handsome for sure...

    http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/...s/P1010572.jpg

    Nephthys it topping 129g from her starter weight of 54 She just got upgraded to small adult mice or small rat pup (11-12g-ish) She is little skittish on the pictures...
    Her problem was retained eye cap... and I took those one after procedure of removal...

    http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/...s/P1010563.jpg

    http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/...s/P1010564.jpg

    She of course was very unhappy with whole me caring and helping ... and believe me 129g house snake can draw blood as well

    Then few hours later we have feeding time...

    Those are very fun to Keep..

    They are very aware of they surroundings.. most of them are very handle able... and with they viper like eves and "python" hunting and feeding style those are pleasure to keep.

    And I'm looking to add Albino to my collection pretty soon as well :gj:

    Those are perfect first snakes... more exotic and more interesting than corns but same entry level snakes....

    They will do good in professional cages as well as rack and glass tanks...

    I highly recommend those little buggers :gj::gj::gj:

    They're gorgeous, it's nice to see some oddball species you don't see every day.
    I love the adult's faces.

    Mike those are very Play-able.. They move a lot but they dont try run away from you... When I'm taking Marduk he reminds me a little puppy he always come to my face checking with his flickering tongue.. "who is that Big Godzilla giving me a workout today".... When week pass and is almost feeding day (like day or 2 before) he is watching me carefully when I'm passing by.. very often with that "reptile twisted head" looking at me if i have food for him.

    In my personal opinion Housies have the best qualities of small colubrids and mini pythons... combined together...

    Definitely recommend them for anyone...

    Like Raf said, they are just fun. They are curious and interested in what's going on around them. Mine does this weird twitch thing when you're holding him every so often like a stick insect swaying in the wind. It's like a vibration you can feel in their body.

    He has also learned how to tell me he's hungry by coming out of his log and just staring into his bowl. Lol it's cute.
