    New False Water Cobra

    So I figured I'd share some pics of this new guy, now that he is settled in a bit. Picked him up from Skiploader last weekend. One he hatched out. Spectacular little beast! He's a pretty damn feisty guy, but a very fun snake.

    Not bad, not bad at all. I know this other guy who has some that are prettier, but not bad.

    If this is your first you'll be hooked. They're pretty cool.

    I know that guy too..............I bought a few snakes from him this year and I think I got the better end of the deal.

    That little dude is almost two years old. I haven't produced anything in awhile.................

    Anthony: If you think that big old girl in the back "house" was special, next time I'll show you a slightly smaller girl I recently received from the FWC Guru that puts her to shame........remember - I have one more snake room you didn't see.

    My sole batch produced on a whim and a caresheet two years ago cannot be compared against the beauties he produces.

    I held out for a long time on getting more involved in FWCs. In the last six months, I have purchased two truly spectacular females. I'm enjoying them for the wonderfully interactive pets they are.

    Glad he's working out for you. He's got a lot of personality. The kids were sad to see him go. After 18 months of us calling him by various profanities, they had finally gave him a proper name and were a little sad to not be greeted by the sound of a whipping tail against plexi-glass when they entered the room.
