    Names?

    I know a lot of people don't tend too name there snakes they but I guess its understandable once you have a much larger collection but I believe in naming all my snakes and so far I've named them all after Greek gods or goddesses ex. Hera(normal) hestia (normal) Ares(pastel) Poseidon (bumblebee) Athena (mojave) Apollo (spider) Aphrodite (butter) chronos( pewter) and the newest addition is a awesome little black back male who is in the naming process so do you guys name your snakes even in big collections?

    I mostly let my husband name my snakes. Most of them ended up with regular people names

    I named Kirby, Georgette, Giovanni, and Dexter. Technically I also named Chase, but my husband had picked Chelsea when we thought he was a she, so I really just gender flipped that one. Other names my husband picked were Edward (not Ed, not Eddie, Edward. He was adamant), Miranda, Zelda, and Amber.

    My BP is named Theron.. which I am sure I read somewhere that it translates to "The Hunter" or something like that in either Latin or Greek.
