The Re-INTRO of the Lovely Leslie Snipes...

Been a crazy crazy day to say the least...

Buuuut... she’s finally here !!! Leslie arrived from her lavish life in LA to come be my little girl on Long Island...

Talk about a sweet girl. She’s literally crawled herself right out of the bag before I could even get my hands in there and tried to kiss me. She wasn’t shy in the least and was allll over. She wanted to like be on my neck and head. If she’s like this fresh out the box from a cross country trip she may be sleeping in bed with me after a few meals !!!

The pics don’t even do her justice. She’s soooo dark yet her markings just pop even though they too aren’t dark. The light blended pattern on her sides is just amazing.

That's my liasis fuscus, Persephone, by far my favorite rat-wrecker in my menagerie.

Sure is! The way she gunned out of the bag and for me I thought she was an attack ball. But she just wanted love and kisses.

I always stay stay away from heads and I’ve read stories and posts of nuzzlers but now I see what that means she wants to be pet and touched

Leslie was out exploring just now she seems to have a lot of pep in her step. She started with some windshield washing...

Second time now. Not sure if she’s hungry or just getting the lay of the land. I was going to wait another day or so to feed. I like them settled in before I offer.

I thought this was more a trait of boas...?

she could have realized that way leads to "out," meaning for some reason she doesn't want to be in. it could be stress from the new environment, she hasn't settled into your husbandry yet, or hunger. give her a bit more time to settle in.

Yellow was a professional window washer once he moved into his T8, and it definitely took him some time to settle into it.

She was exploring and tailstanding again last night. She’s been really chill all day and out at night which led me to believe she was hungry and hunting. She was getting fed pretty readily with the breeder and always took food.

I decided it was time to offer... she literally wouldn’t get off the front glass and she was locked and loaded and I wasn’t going to try and move her and get tagged nor did I want to stress her or scare her prior to an offer. I tried to wait her out and she’s a tough lady so I said screw it... I’ll offer right on the front glass and she didn’t hesitate. It was kind of funny I just lowered the front and she was there and knew and smelled her meal. I didn’t wiggle I didn’t have to do anything but put it in front of her and BAM!! Very happy sight for sure.
