    Re: Some photos of my new albino dwarf reticulated python!

The first day I got my retic the woma saw that snake in my hands and he has totally changed. Now the woma doesn't even want to come out. I open up the tub and he just sits there all coiled up. Can snakes get jealous? I still open up the tub twice a day but he refuses to come out to play, never knew a snake could get jealous but as far as I can tell it's happening!!
    snake are incapable of showing jealousy. Any reclusion from normal behavior for the woma is likely environmental - stress from new smells, change in environment, on coming shed, etc. Cheers
