    I got a surprise today!

    My husband brought me home a surprise today. Some men bring home flowers...mine brings me snakes LOL. He came home with this guy today.



    Hubby was moving him to a tub so I could set up an enclosure for him and he wrapped around hubbys hand and wouldn't come off lol.





    Tongue pics!





    I set him up in a 20L for now. The enclosure he came with is nice but it's more of a setup for a gecko or something. It's one of these.

    Not much floor space for hides etc. I told hubby since we have it now though I will have to get a gecko or something to put in it . I have to admit I laughed when he showed up with this little guy. This is the same man that a month ago when we got Ella told me one was enough LOL.When he left today he told me he had to go pick something up,It never even crossed my mind it was a snake. So the new little guy is in quarantine in my guest room. I haven't come up with a name for him yet. Suggestions are welcome! Thanks for looking

    Thanks. They said he was a pastel. His story is,He was the sons snake. The son is 19 now and moved in with his girlfriend. She said NO WAY to him bringing the snake so he left the snake at his moms house. His mom was scared of the snake so didn't want to feed him or clean his enclosure so he had to find a new home for the snake.

    I will try to get some more pictures of him when I can. Whatever he is I love him

    Either way, he is really nice looking and it looks like you got a healthy boy who was taken care of and should have just as good a life with you as he did previously.

    Great looking pastel! I've had this name on reserve for any future male Pastel I may get but unfortunately I won't be able to increase my collection size for quite some time :/... at any rate Pablo Picasso, famous artist who worked wonders with oil pastels lol. I'd be honored if you chose that as his name

    Awww thanks I will sure do my best. He was well taken care of and hubby said the guy was sad to see him go. He said it was just getting to hard to work,go to school and have to run all the way out to his moms to feed the snake since she was scared of it.
