Great pics, I can never seem to get good ones, he moves so fast! Plus it's difficult to really show their color. I totally understand what you mean about slow growing but you can see she's put on some size. I got my dumerils and my borneo short tails as babies all in spring of last year so it's been cool comparing the different species. If I didn't put the dum on the scale I would barely notice the growth. I have to dig him out super quick because he shoots off like a bullet otherwise but so well tempered, never even hisses at me. Eats and sheds perfect every time.

How funny, I've only ever seen slow moving ones! How old is your dum? Mine is my most apathetic snake, she doesn't give two craps about moving... She loves pretending to be a potato though. Once I put her on a blanket and she gets in a comfortable position, she will just sit there like a statue for an hour.
And same, dums have great tempers. Vigil has hissed at me a few times, but only when I surprised her by taking the lid off the tub too fast.
Yeah, once you compare the first few photos to once they're older, it's a big difference. I can't wait for her to grow up.

Thanks!
Oh yes LOL. Actually no idea the rate they'll grow as hatchlings, but when mine was 2 years old, she was on small rats. She's now 3 years old and on big mediums.

Great pics. It is hard to catch their colors - the camera doesn't do them justice.

Clean and pretty pattern!
Huh, maybe they're more skittish when they're younger, and I just didn't get to experience it LOL
