Show off your PET snakes

This is Mandy - my first ever ball python, aquired today! I currently have no intentions of breeding her, but that may change in the next 20 years. She's a kind of rescue? A friend of mine bought her last week from LLL thinking she was 'soooo cuteeeee' and then decided this week she didn't like the idea of feeding her mice/rats and said she was going to release her, so, I went and grabbed her this morning! So, Mandy is now my baby girl. She's a 2013 ball python bred by LLL reptiles. Don't have any good photos but I only wanted to handle her for a minute or less before putting her in her cage to settle in





Sorry for the messy photo background but she's going into quarantine and the only place I can do that is in my walk in closet so she's staying in there for a while until she's healthy and I'm sure of it

I've currently got a pair of cornsnakes, both young. I was planning on getting a ball python, but not until about August - November when four reptile conventions will be in my area, and then I was planning on snagging a male piebald. But, couldn't let her just go release Mandy so she's home with me. she seems pretty calm, Seems like she may be a good ball python ambassador!

I don't have any ball pythons that aren't a part of future breeding plans but I do have this little Apodora papuana:


Was sold to me as a female but probed super deep on either side so I'm calling it male. Growing him up nice and slow, fed smaller meals every 10-14 days. I could conceivably get a female one day but to be honest, I doubt I'd risk this boy in any attempts to produce eggs.

This is my baby, Boots. I'm honestly not sure whether the sex is male or female, but I just figure it's a him. I am just too afraid of sexing him because I don't want to accidentally hurt him and I don't know any herp keepers in my area! He is my first baby, and he's still young. Its too hard to pick just one or two good pictures, so Ill do my best to narrow it down! He is a goofy guy and loves getting attention.

Flash, our male normal, is a pet and he has a forever home with us. We took him in after the manager at a local pet store called and asked if he wanted him. Flash's former owner was in the store saying "find someone to take him or I'll cut his ****ing head off". He was a mess - stuck shed and scars where live feeders had gotten him. This picture was taken about a week after we brought him home.

Nobody keeps pet morphs ??...

Here's my spider! I freakn adore him!





Here's the albino that I bought for my sister. Though I take care of him ... He goes on lengthy fasts every year.




And here's MY normal . Everyone's got that one snake that started it all!
Here is he after his first vet checkup! He stayed like this for a few hours ...

Here he is on feeding day, after the vet trip! Taking down an appropriate sized mouse..


And here he is TODAY ..

Considered all are my pets and almost all but some of my BPs, Argentine boas, California Kingsnakes, and Angolans are to be my breeding projects, here's some that I don't yet have plans for:

Capona, my first BP. No projects planned:



Bentley, albino male. No projects planned, though he's a smokin' albino!



Cleo, "dinker" female normal. I'd like to do a two gene fire something male to her, but no set plans:



Scarlett, normal female. No set plans with a specific male:



Blair, normal female. No set plans with a specific male:



Mox, spider female. No projects planned:






And I'll cheat too....a couple non BP pet snakes:







And my forever pet, Mona the corn. She'll never be a breeder because she's spayed.
