After seeing the albino nelsons milksnake featured in the Lemony Snickett movie, I just had to have a "Petunia" of my own. I bought a tiny baby at the Hamburg show from Outback Reptiles, insisting I get a female. Fast forward six years plus to today, when I try to put "her" in with another male. I never intended on breeding her, but a customer had a really nice male, so I thought why not? Petunia began acting very strange, and started freaking out when she came in contact with the male. I began thinking, but refused to accept what I was seeing. No. No way. Cant be. So, I probed her. Male.I still love him anyways as one of my pets and wonderful "education" animals. Ive been calling him "Petunia" for the last six years tho! I even have a little pink transport container for him with his name on it! And little flowers and cupcakes! Well, I guess HE is going to have to stay "Petunia" cuz I cant bring myself to call him anything else. Oy.
