    A new rescue, and sunny day collection pics.

    So I've become the "Do you know anyone who wants a snake?" person. A family I know has a teenager going off to college who can't take his BP. They offer her to us - 4 years old, live eater, normal purchased from a pet store - and we gladly accept, happy to have another large normal our collection. Well, all was not as good as it seemed. These very wonderful, well-meaning people, were doing some serious damage to this poor little girl. She was 4 years old and only weighed 416g! She had tons of stuck shed and eye caps. We brought her home and soaked her and let her settle in, and she pounded 3 adult mice this morning. We'll have her fattened up to a healthy weight in no time!!!

    Here's Bandit, 2008 normal female.






    After the soak:


    And today in the sun, right before her meal:

    Kudos to you for taking in that poor girl. It is amazing to see how much better she already looks after one soaking.

    Great job in rescuing her.

    All your other snakes are just stunning also.

    Outstanding work on the rescue! Now that she's under your care I have no doubt she'll rebound in no time.

    Your whole collection is awesome!
