Another Banana
I bought another banana. I went to petsmart for some mice and came come with another snake. And another banana at that 😅 Noodle is allegedly a 10 month old ball python. Gender unknown and will stay unknown until someone who knows what they're doing can look. Sorry for the crappy pics. Today was the first day I actually took her out since I got her on Sunday. She is WILD. She will not sit still for 5 seconds. I take her out and she's off exploring. When I first got her it was hard to get her in her cage. She just wanted to go crawl around. I call it a her, not sure why. I'd like her a bit plumper but she seems to be in good shape otherwise. They were underfeeding her. I'm keeping her apart from Pascal in a separate room for a few months to be sure she is healthy. I'm happy with my purchase and wanted to share 😊

Re: Another Banana
Don't really care where you got her from. Pretty snake! Welcome to the Nanner Club! :banana:

Just realized that if I ever get a Banana Pied I'd probably have to name it Split...
Lovely snake! My Banana boy, Arlirr, originally came from a Petsmart as well - and he is a fantastic boy!

Banana split! I love it :)
And thanks for well wishes. Pascal and Noodle (probably the most common snake name ever) are the best. They both have such different personalities it's insane. I now want more bananas :D:D:D

Awe! Cute! I am not to be trusted in any store that sells snakes for this exact reason. ;)

Re: Another Banana
Nice nana Ashley congrats. If your two nana's end up being male and female maybe try breeding out super banana's which aren't seen enough.

Thank you! And yes it would be wonderful if Noodle was a female. I love her either way but that would be awesome. I hope to get a female banana one day. It's on my want list. I have an obsession with bananas and banana morphs :P

Re: Another Banana
I would really like to know how you got a banana at a petsmart I have never seen anything but normal for any of their animals

My boy, Arlirr, also came from a Petsmart, according to the guy I got him from. Sometimes they do have morphs.

They've had a pinstripe, caramel morph, piebald and a couple other things like enchi at the PetSmart by me. Noodle was too large to keep in their displays so they kept him in the back. I had to ask to see him. I purchased him in Chicago so I'm not sure if that has something to do with it too.

This afternoon I saw a banana at Petsmart. It was on sale for around $300, and it had retained shed over the eyes (eyecaps?), at least 2 layers of shed. It was covered with partially flaked shed, and quite thin. It was trying to periscope but was unsteady, and had definite folds all along the sides. It was a sad sight. There was a normal in the hide, but I couldn't see much of it other than that it also had eyecaps, and one eye was slightly indented. I pointed out the snakes' sorry condition and the clerk seemed concerned but didn't do anything about it. :(

Quite a few pet smarts are carrying bananas now. I have been to 3 that had them and have seen people all over the country have seen them on this forum. They started getting them about a month and a half ago. There's is one larger pet smart near me that carries 5 morphs and 2 normals all the time. They even had an albino champagne on sale for $250 I almost bought.
Congrats on the banana!!! I fell in love with a female banana at pets mart, she was so friendly and didn't even flinch a little when a hand got passed in front of her face or when tons of people surrounded me while I was holding her. I was going to buy her but I have my eye set on the perfect male to breed with the snake I'll have paid off on the 24th, I may still get her if they still have her in a month or 2.

Re: Another Banana
Wow, I thought female bananas were still highly coveted by breeders and rarely let go to anyone let alone Petsmart except for $$$$. If some of you truly did get a female from Petsmart, good for you! It kinda bothers me tho, ill have to admit...I got my little pastel nanner at a show from a breeder for $200, and Petsmart is selling them for just a little more....makes me cringe at what Petsmart actually got them for.

I just got my banana from petsmart for Father's Day. Completely tame and just ate her first small rat (she hadn't eaten in the 6 weeks that petsmart had her but she rocked it when I got her home!
