    Finally Got My Carpet Python!

    Well I WAS holding out for a Jungle Python. However, this semi local guy kept teasing me on Craig's List with this beautiful 2010 7Ft. female Carpet for months!

    I finally caved about 10 days ago. I decided to wait for her huge feeding bulge to go down and for her to shed before introductions were in order.

    I had her name picked out on the way to pick her up. But when I saw her cool head marking of a Texas Longhorn Skull, I just had had to name her after the famous Texas Cattle Baroness- Lizzie Johnson.

    So Lizzie it is!









    An EXTREEEMLEE active snake! Quite difficult to take pics while handling!

    While I was trying to take a pic, she whipped behind my head and went in between the towel rack. She is much thicker than towels! I had to wrestle her out backwards. It was like fighting a gator! She was hissing the whole time. But if I didn't get her out she would yank the rack out of the wall.

    Looking back it was funny! She is tame as snail.
