    I don't know how I missed this thread. That's a gorgeous coastal y'all have. She's gonna grow quickly too. Carpets are awesome snakes to keep.

    Re: Our new carpet, Isabel.

    Thank you everyone. She is definetly coming along nicely. Still has her moods where she gets snappy and she isn't completely a fan of being touched. Sometimes I can handle her without a bite and sometimes I get a few. However they really are not that painful. All in all I still think she is perfect.

    Re: Our new carpet, Isabel.

    A thing I try to do when picking up or changing position when holding my Bredli is to bring my hand into contact with her where she's already in contact with something, then slide my hand along her body to where I want it. I think she takes it as a shift in position on her part, and she's more comfortable with it. She's grown out of her nippy phase, but she's still more particular about her handling than some of our snakes.

    The KampKenan guy recently posted a video on his carpet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKcmj1YQ1mQ

    Worth a look; I always like his videos.

    Re: Our new carpet, Isabel.

    Well we have had Isabel for 1 month now and she is becoming quite tame in her short time. I can handle her and not even have to worry about being bit any more. She has gained 20 grams and is up to 101g. She literally takes the hoppers right off the tongs and starts chomping away barely even wraps except for support. She got an 8 and 9 gram hopper tonight. Here she is eating one of her two hoppers. Sorry for the IPhone pics but it is all I have.

    You did a great job settling Isabel in.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.
