No- that was all her idea, lol. "Surprise!" "They're H-E-R-E!"

And I just released them. Even offered her freedom too but she wanted none of it- she liked room service.

Some granite from NH, and a Het Pied Ball Python.

Interestingly: I just so happened to visit the spots I collected these stones today, it was a nice day.

A few more years and this thread will start to read like a book.

Don't hold your breath waiting for us to complain...

I'm even enjoying the scenery you're sharing! Do continue- it's all welcome.

With Fall upon New England the leaf litter makes it difficult to find good rocks for tumbling in my area.

I still try though.

In other news:
I thought maybe a 27lb. knucklehead pumpkin with a big ball python wrapped around it might make for a cool photo...
Maybe not...

I eventually decided to use a snake that was a bit more 'manageable' in size....

Interesting that the gray tones are visible in this flash photo for this Het Axanthic/Leopard Pastel.

As always, you provide great ideas for pictures. My photography skills are horrible, but the idea is still fun.

After I put her away, I noticed the shed skin from my Banana Fire Bee male that was set aside to dry out, so....

It might have worked better if it hadn't been already almost completely dry.
