Our Little Patriot
Since it was only a few days before July 4th when we brought our little one home, we've finally settled on the name "Patriot", which our 9yo came up with.(Not to mention that the first 5 letters are the first 5 of my name too.)
We got Patriot via a Craigslist ad. It came with the tank, everything. Didn't have a UTH, though, (heck, it didn't even have a name) and still had shedding stuck to the rear third of its body. Once it warmed up, the shedding came off the next day. The prior owner thinks it's about 6 months old. I wish I knew more precisely how old it is. This is the first snake I/we have ever had, and this forum has helped us a lot. (Ignore the Petco dials; we've since added an Acu-Rite.)
These pictures have been taken over these past 2 weeks. I've kept them small since there are quite a few of them here. Thanks for looking!
Pictures of it drinking. Fascinating to watch!
First, staring contest with the hygrometer. Second, the underside.
