Inej ate for a third time last week, and since I haven't noticed any problems, she has been upgraded to eco earth substrate from paper towels. Should she discover she can burrow, I may never see her again haha. I want to say she's gotten bigger, but with how tiny she is, it's really hard to tell.

What a cutie! But she's HUGE compared to some snakes I've raised. Corn snakes are tiny enough & I've raised quite a few, but the absolute smallest ones I've raised were a whole clutch of desert glossy snakes some years ago. They were only about 7" long, & really skinny. Anyway, enjoy your little one, they're only this "little" once. I really like her pattern (markings) too.

She's the shortest snake I've had to date. Lan Fan weighed less on acquisition, but was already very long for such a tiny noodly thing. I think Inej is around 11 inches long, maybe? Not very big compared to Maze or Lan Fan. Can't imagine holding something 7 inches long, that is just so, so tiny.

I've raised many corns & they're mostly about 9-10" when they hatch- & skinny- but you're right, those little glossy snakes weren't even .25" at the widest part- they were a huge challenge to get feeding too. But as adults, desert glossy snakes are really nice pets- graceful, sweet-natured & pretty in a natural (blending in with the desert) sort of way, not bright colors, but warm beiges with "freckles" & a glossy underside. When you're used to boas or BPs, hatchling colubrids do seem quite tiny. And they can be slippery escape artists also- no gaps allowed in caging.

She's a very nice-looking snake, & one we virtually never see around here otherwise, so I love your updates.
