    My New BP, Corkii !!
    My new(ish) Ball Python, Corkii!!!
    I got him on the 17th July, 2015.
    He is about 18 months old, and weighs around 800g. I adopted him from a reptile club, who received him from a couple who was getting divorced. I decided to give him his forever home, as no-body seemed interested in adopting him.
    He is a spider morph, and he is just so sweet. I already love him to bits.

    Congrats on getting Corkii! He is a great looking snake. I'm surprised that no one wanted him.

    Good to know that there are no feeding issues too.

    That's a nice looking spider, he looks very reduced, and that line runs more than half the body! Great job rescuing!

    His original name was Jake XD
    I had to change that. Who would name a snake Jake? So cliche lol
    He has a slight wobble and corkscrew, so after many days of brainstorming, we chose Corky, but finding out it could be used as a insult to mentally handicapped people, we changed the spelling to Corkii XD

    I'm glad you like him! He is so funny too. I put him away this one time, and he curled up by the glass, with his head on the ledge, just looking out of the glass at me. He stayed like that for ages! It was like he was begging me to take him out again!
    And it does annoy me that his previous owners had to get rid of him. Luckily he has me now, otherwise, I dont know where he would have gone to O3O
