    As Always.

    After going through some tough times and re-homing the retic, I knew I could count on another python here.

    Jewel has always been the snake with the most "personality" in the collection. She seems to enjoy being handled and never gets flighty or uncomfortable.

    Last night I was able to concentrate more on the other 3 animals here. Jewel was ready for action and she watched some TV with the family while chilling in my lap.


    She's going on 7 years old and is 7"+. She's been the perfect keeper at home. Here are a couple of head shots with minimal difference between them.

    She's a beautiful snake...having a real difficult pain of a snake can really make you appreciate those with better "social skills".

    The retic was here since 2016 and started becoming insolent in early 2019.

    The 3 animals here now are all easy to handle.

    My son has the royal and I have the boa and carpet.

    I can't pick a favorite species when it comes to boas and carpets.

    I will add one replacement animal here.

    That animal will either be a Pokigron Surinam boa or a Brisbane, costal carpet.

    Re: As Always.

    Good to see you enjoying your current animals. I am glad you were able to realize you did what was best for all RE rehoming, and that you do not have regrets or second thoughts.

    Jewel is beautiful and I am sure is enjoying time with "Dad."

    Ha! I thought we were going to be seeing some deck pics too!!

    Nevertheless, Jewel is a beauty! I'm glad you got some quality time in with her. I'm sure it was just what the Dr ordered so to speak.
    Thanks for the headshots! Love that bulldog head!!
