    New pic of Chance the Nicaraguan!


    Finally got a "proper" shot of him! He is both large and fussy, he refused to hold still for me until his 'daddy' came and stood nearby. He's an adult rescue Nicaraguan, my friend adopted him after he'd been brought back up to good health. I'm Chance's "godmother", lol, he and my friend were over so we could all make a trip to see our friend Abby, who confirmed that Chance is indeed a boy (a big, healthy boy; he's close to 6.5'), and who also thinks he really might be a proper Nicaraguan. He grew so much after we got him, when the guy we got him from said he was full grown, we thought he might have been a hybrid, but he's definitely got the coloring of a Nic, and mixed with the temperament of a big puppy, he's definitely one of my favorite snakes to chill with.

    Haha you're lucky that your Nic has the temperament of a puppy. Mine has the temperament of a chainsaw

    He's very gorgeous though, I love how dark he is. He's definitely got the right pattern to be at least partially Nicaraguan. Kudos again on rescuing him, and thanks for sharing!

    Thanks! Chance was the first Nic I ever got to interact with, so it was kind of funny to me, hearing about how they usually have kind of nasty attitudes. According to the guy we adopted him from, Chance is about 4 years old so that might have something to do with it.

    He does look a bit darker in the photo than in person. The base color at his head is sort of a stone-grey, and it darkens gradually all the way down his body. He just shed a couple days ago too
