They're almost here We went tonight and picked our ball pythons. Nicky (9) and I both ended up choosing cinnamons -- he got a boy he's naming Scales, and I got a girl I'm still working on naming (might be Hermione? Because I'm a huge Harry Potter geek...). We're not bringing them home just yet because I have to finish off their tubs plus I've got a workshop this weekend I'll be out of town for, and the last thing that child needs is unfettered access to his snake that is supposed to be a) settling in, and b) in quarantine. Shoot, the last thing *I* need is unfettered access to my snake that's supposed to be settling in, LOL -- oh it's going to be hard to keep our hands off, so we'll visit a few times before we bring them home

Here's Scales:


And here's maybe-Hermione:


Better one of her head:


We're ridiculously tickled!
