Doing this rather lopsided as there's technically other threads where I was keeping updates, but decided it was best to move everything to a more dedicated thread where everything's more organized.
Anyway, this is Zebes, my nearly 8 month old male banana BP. He is named after the planet featured in the Metroid video game series (all snakes I have in the future will revolve around the naming scheme of fictional video game worlds). Not the first snake I've ever had as I've owned a corn snake some years ago, but it's been so long that he feels like my first. Couldn't have asked for a better start with him though, he's been a dream. Never bitten anybody, has been sporting a hearty appetite and been patient with me as I learn (or even relearn) all the ropes. Somewhere above 2 feet long and just getting started on rat pups, he's been growing steadily. To think he was able to fit in a deli cup when I got him last September.
A showcase of his length.
Gamer snake lol.
Closeup of his coloration. He's been retaining the orange well, hoping he keeps it into adulthood to some extent (specifically picked him from the breeder's selection because he was so vivid).
