Yafe - Albino Carpet - FINAL - Progression Thread

[Bogertophis]

Oh thanks, yeah, I'm all good now. I rarely get sick...pretty sure I caught it in Walmart... This time of year I should wear a bag over my head when I go there...
they even closed the local schools for 2 days about a week ago, for all the sick-outs with the flu.

Back to Yafe, I agree...as he get's bigger & stronger, if there is any residual scarring, hopefully it will be minimized.

Thank you Rich.

I've heard carpets are food driven close to boas, but hadn't seen it. Tonight I saw it! Very pleased.

He was super aware the food was coming and his interest was definitely there. As you can see in the video, when I offered, he did not hesitate.

Also, very happy he took to rats so well. What a relief.

It's great to see Yafe thriving Dave. You and Katie have done a fantastic job with him!

[dakski]

Yafe continues to look and sound fantastic. He's really doing great. He's still a little darty sometimes when I hold him, but in general, really chilling out. He has never made a strike/bite attempt, and this may just be the way he is, but I think he has a little room to get more comfortable with handling. He has shown a more relaxed nature in the past few weeks.

Here are some pictures of the handsome guy!

No pun intended, but his colors are so RICH!

He's really looking handsome. There is also a lot of nuance in his coloration. Pinks, oranges, etc.

His colors sure are popping and he also looks bigger every time I see him! What are you feeding him these days Dave?

He’s real cool. Love how bright he is. Its great he has a chill temperament..Ive never enjoyed a defensive snake..if I feel that they are stressed by me I feel badly.

Agreed. Since he’s been healthy, he’s really calm. I’ve had defensive baby snakes, but they snap out of that quick once they realize I won’t hurt them or eat them.

He is apparently very calm for a young carpet. That’s why I got him.

He’s eating rat fuzzys. They are about 15-17g.

He he will be on rat pups in the next week or two.
