I love his markings!

[GoingPostal]

They do seem to love crawling back into or under laps, hard to get pics at times. He looks good, it needs to warm up majorly here before I can take any outside, indoor light just isn't the same.

So true. I had to keep taking him off my lap and putting him onto the grass, only for him to hightail it back. I guess its the whole "take cover" thing. They don't like to be so exposed?

Sandors colors are already changing. That light orange is beginning to turn into a deeper tangerine color, esp. on the sides of his neck. Can't wait to see what he ends up looking like. I like that Bloods get "better" with age, so the change is really exciting

He's great!!! And I love how vibrant blood pythons colors are.

This makes me want to bring my dum out in the grass some time. I've actually never placed my snakes on grass before, because I'm so paranoid of parasites or worms or something crazy LOL.

Sandor is stunning. I'm jealous of your weather!

Great pics and videos, Zina. I can totally see you buying him ice cream and taking him to the park and pushing him on the swing and going down the slide with him! The sun really makes his colors pop. He looks like he is really growing, too! He looks so much bigger than my Sumatrans that are about the same age as him. Blood babies must just be a lot larger than Sumatran babies, just as they are as adults, eh? My new 2016 Matrix boy will be here next Wednesday, so i'll have a good size comparison. I asked the breeder if he would be sure to pack a little coloring book for him in his little suitcase for the trip... lol

Doesn't everybody do that ?? hehe...

Yes, his colors just pop outside. He is also gaining a lot of "tangerine" in his color. From a light orange to a deeper reddish orange, esp. on the sides of his neck. He always looks so big in pictures. I thought he was so small when I got him. I have a Ball Python his age that is heavier then him. And I do not ever power feed!!

I need to weigh him again, but he was only 300 something grams when I got him. But I bet he is closer to 500 gr. now. I can't wait to see your new baby, so exciting

He's a very handsome guy, zina10. How frequently do you handle him?
