Random thought, but multiple people online have assumed she's a white lipped python LOL. Us snake keepers know they look nothing alike besides having some iridescence, but it makes me laugh how I kept itching on and off about getting a white lipped for the past 3 years, and then here she is anyway, confusing the internet.
She looks sensational!
What a cool little snake, although she's getting bigger so maybe we're passed the "little" stage.

thanks!
I can barely tell how much she grew since I see her every day, although she grew A LOT since I got her. She used to fit snugly under a small size reptilebasics hide, and now she's too big to fit under a medium one

Pixie just displayed some very neat behavior!
I opened her cage door a crack (sliding glass doors) with her sitting on sort of the opposite side of the enclosure. My hands and everything were still outside the enclosure. Within a second, she shot across the cage with her mouth open and then made a distinct U-turn around the crack in the door to bite at me on the outside!
Most snakes would just strike at the glass like a buncha morons. She's my only snake that obviously comprehends glass barriers AND clearly learned the exact location the sliding doors open. That she needs to strike AROUND the glass to bite at something outside shows a level of intelligence beyond my other snakes, and it's really interesting! I don't think I've seen a snake do a U-turn strike before either. I wish I had it recorded, but Pixie's unpredictable behaviors surprise me every day lol
Also quick reaction time, because I had only just opened the sliding door for a second LOL.
Anyway, here's a pic from yesterday

Ugh, Pixie is perfect. I need a scrub in my life. Very interesting to read about that behavior, I guess most of my snakes aren't very intelligent.
Also, does her shed have iridescence in it? I looked at my white-lipped python's shed and the head portion had noticeable iridescence in it - it was pretty cool to see.
