    A Little Late

    I actually just now noticed that there is an introduction thread. So, here goes - I'm in Northern Nevada, and have four snakes currently. Two Kingsnakes, purchased last year from BHB Reptiles. The male is a strapping healthy boy. The female... has issues. Two ball pythons, just purchased a few months ago from TRI Reptiles, though Kingsnake.com Classifieds. They both seem to be happy, healthy snakes. I've gotten two sheds from the male so far, and one from the female, but for the first month and a half she was refusing to eat. Now that I'm giving her live mice, she's pouncing one a week - well, one ever six days, which is my current feeding routine. She's also mellowing own considerably, hasn't struck at me since she started eating, and appears to be growing like a weed. Need to weigh them all before I feed this week, since I forgot to last week, and everybody's stuffed full of mice right now. I was getting pretty frustrated with the Balls, when the girl wouldn't eat... now that she is, I'm getting to like them as much as I like my Kings. And the shopping list is growing... So far the shopping list is up to:

    .1 High-White Albino or Regular CK, Blizzard CK, Lavender Snow CK...
    .1 Superfly BP, Super Fire BP, Super Pastel Banana BP...

    I may need a larger house.

    Welcome to the forum.

    Would love to see pictures of your snakes.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    1.2 Coastal Carpet Pythons
    Mack The Knife, 2013
    Lizzy, 2010
    Etta, 2013
    1.1 Jungle Carpet Pythons
    Esmarelda , 2014
    Sundance, 2012
    2.0 Common BI Boas, Punch, 2005; Butch, age?
    0.1 Normal Ball Python, Elvira, 2001
    0.1 Olive (Aussie) Python, Olivia, 2017

    Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.

    I'm horrible with taking photographs. I only have some because I actually found my camera again - pardon the quality, please. And any errors in posting the images.

    Zyali, Black Widow BP:


    Miqula, Super Pastel BP:


    Tsoss, High-Yellow Banana Albino Cal. King:


    Tsoss is in his hide with the top off... because it's the only way I could get him to hold still long enough to take a picture. I don't take photos of Ssa, my other Kingsnake, simply because she gets stressed out way too easily. I try to avoid handling her whenever possible as a result.
