    A very special Thanks to Steve Binnig of the Philly Zoo for giving me and my son Tristan the tour. He gave Tristan an alligator tooth and me a male het albino half dwarf burm!

    Such a great day!

    Great pics man, looks like you had a blast! The snake in question is a madagascar tree boa, aka sanzinia.

    Fun snakes to keep and extremely undemanding.

    The one at the zoo looks like a green phase, quite a bit more rare to find than the mandarin phase I pictured.

    It looks like you had a fun day at the zoo. What kind of turtle is that at the top?

    I would love to get a Mandarin phase Sanzinia to hang out with my other Madagascar natives...

    Thanks for the info!

    Steve told me that he's a biter and I would get bit but he was pretty chill for me. Tristan wanted to hold him and cried when I put him back. He gets to hold some of mine sometimes.
