Mazikeen progression thread

[Starscream]

A basking girl chilling on her ladder.


Note to self: trying to weigh Maze at night is impossible. Do not attempt. (They're all blurry pics so I won't post 'em lmao)





During the day, size comparison to my hand:



I woke up on the morning of feeding day and there she was, waiting....




(in that last one she had her head cradled by her tail. i wish i'd gotten better photos bc it was terribly adorable)

2 full of rat 2 move 2 hide:


I think she's approaching shed, but she may go 7 feedings instead of 6 between sheds this time. We shall see .

She is! 5 months old and already nearly 200 grams ;w;. By December she should be ready to graduate to rat pups!

.... I'm still going to have rat fuzzies. Heck.

Well that's it. You've got no choice. You'll have to buy another snake!

LOL. Goodness, don't even tempt me. There are two disco fires up on morph market that I can't afford but god, they're gorgeous.

I want a GHI Mojave next. Hoping I can talk the other half into it. That or a Rainbow Boa since he's partial to them, but he keeps saying silly things like "We don't need another snake." And, "We have too many animals."

Silly boy. You always need another snake.

Ohhh, I love those. They've got that good high contrast and just.... yes..... (imagine an axanthic version i would cry).

I've already told mine that I want another snake, and I already have the species picked out. I might have accidentally turned her on to tegus......... heeehhhhh..... Gotta start your reptile obsession somehow? Lol. Either way that gives me the leeway to cackle and get me a new snake... at some point... in the semi-near future. Don't have space right now, but we plan on moving in a little over a year.

She really is gorgeous, I love her side pattern. Grats!

Thanks! Lots of people ask if she's cinnamon or mojave, I guess because of the side pattern that red axanthics have. It's pretty similar at first glance.

Just realized I haven't updated in a while, and I do have pics. She ate last night so I'm leaving her alone for a few days.






She's due to shed soon, but she keeps showing signs one day and then backing off and looking normal the next. I'm hoping she'll finally go blue this weekend, but who knows at this point.
