    Talking My two balls...

    So, I realized I've been asking lots of questions (and receiving a ton of greatly appreciated assistance!) and just generally lurking around for a while now, but never fully introduced myself or my pythons. So, without any further ado... Monty & Moira!

    Monty:













    Moira:













    Monty is a late '08 hatchling and weighs roughly 100 grams, is on a 5-day feeding schedule of one f/t hopper (considering moving up to weanlings or adult mice in a week or two though), and is now completely over his general skittishness and seems to enjoy being out of the tub.

    Moira, well, I'm not sure how old she is to be honest. Maybe someone can make an estimation based on her weight of 700 grams. One of the guys from Snakes At Sunset suggested she was about 2 years old, but there's no documentation to back that up. She's feeding on p/k small rats every 7 days, but I'm considering moving her up to medium rats next Sunday. She's also been a total sweetheart from the first time I handled her at the shop.

    They may just be "normals", but I think they're wonderful and I couldn't ask for two sweeter snakes to start me off in the hobby of snake keeping. I think I'm going to be looking at a yellowbelly pair for '09, or possibly an axanthic!

    Thanks again to all the members here who assisted me with my newbie questions along the way. To think I started out with this little stress ball:



    He's much happier now in his tub, I can tell. Now back to your regularly scheduled browsing!
