She wasn't quite that hungry, eh? (I think that was great!)

Re: Snakes and Stones
I went to a flea market this morning and I saw a neat carved pyrite dragon skull in a jewelry vendors booth.
I was skeptical at first that it was real (for the price), but, upon closer inspection it seemed legit.
The white sections are remnants of the quartz matrix.

I think that's the same story everywhere. I can't believe the BP market hasn't crashed yet with how they oversaturate everything, probably only because they come up with new morphs every couple months or something. I'm fortunate that my local still has a decent variety despite its relatively small size, and even then the tables are still 40-50% BPs.

I would say the New England Reptile exp was about 30% Ball Pythons.
Leopard geckos made a big showing this time round in October Expo....I saw a lot of really nice ones...even some approaching the $1K price range (which is impressive).

Local Serpentinite, and some non-local Quartz....I took the rough blue stone from an old childrens tumbling kit (circa 1975): it is dyed agate.

She wasn't "cuddly" but yes, she was a handsome spider, gave me hundreds of spiderlings & happily chowed down mealworms. She lived a couple years with me- a natural lifespan. (She was an adult when I got her, & I understand they max out about 2.5 years.)

Neat!
Have you bred spiders?
I tried my hand at raising and breeding mantids (hatched an egg case and kept hundreds), raised them for many weeks, but, lost 95% at the 6th instar due to molting issues-let the rest go...(I have pictures somewhere, but, too lazy to find them).

Photo #268
I'm sure most members here will realize something odd about this pastel (aside from being in-shed).
The light orange blushing on the sides is obvious, pretty cool: it will fade as the snake grows.
Thought it was a fluke at first, but, I have seen it repeatedly: one of the characteristics on my Pastel Het Lav Albino line.
