Seriously, they grow very quickly!
And he has the most personality I've ever seen in a snake.
I'm sure no one will believe this...but if he's around my neck and I make the kissy noises (like when you call a dog), no matter what he's doing, he'll come over and give me a kiss on the lips. I'll try to get a video some time, as I only have pictures.
He's one that will never be replaced. He'll always have a home here with me.
