Well finally got pics taken today of our 5 year old, Mikey, and his new female BP, Helori. Thanks to Cue for the joy this lovely little snake is bringing to Mikey and our whole family. Mikey is taking all this very seriously and insisted on not only checking Helori's tub today but even peeking inside her hides to make sure she hadn't left him a "stinky" to clean up (I think he's actually looking forward to cleaning his first snake poop LOL).

He's going to help feed Helori this coming Tuesday. This will be his first time witnessing a live feeding so we're hoping he's okay with that since he's very involved in helping with the rat colony. Anyways...without further ado...here's Mikey and Helori today.







As soon as it's been okayed Mikey's teacher has asked us to bring Helori and her snake friends to visit the classroom and talk about how snakes help the world and make good pets if you take care of them correctly. A lot of Mikey's little friends are amazed he lives with a houseful of snakes and rats LOL.
