    Kisasa Update

    This morning I woke to find two presents from my girl! Shed and poop!! And poor ol' me....even though she's still in the "settling in" phase, well, I just HAD to take her out to clean out the poop and shed and check her over for anything stuck on...

    She didn't act nervous or defensive at all when I got her out. Petra held her while I cleaned things up and she did just fine. Not that this means I'll get to play with her yet...but it's definitely a very happy sign!

    She just had a tiny bit of shed still stuck on her neck...I misted the cage and her as I put her back and then dashed off to take the kids to school and hit the gym. Come home to find that last bit of shed stuck to the glass...lol...and she finally found her hide and is curled up underneath it.

    Happy happy snake day!

    Sounds wonderful Judy! You must be so thrilled to just know she is there, doing her snakey things right on schedule and with little to no issues.

    Thanks y'all!


    Jotay, here's the thread with the pics all in order... hehe...
    http://www.ball-pythons.net/forums/s...ad.php?t=29104


    Sheree...you ain't kidding about how hard it is to wait! She's all curled up in her hide now, but I can see her peeking out from the edge because her body lifts it up a little. I keep arguing with myself about whether I should get her out..."just to make sure that last little bit of shed came off....." Of course, I can see it stuck to the glass, so I know it did..... But what if there's another...???

    Arghhh!!! LOL!! I'm being a good girl and letting her be.....but it ain't easy, I'm tellin' ya!

    It is very hard! Even with multiples in the house that you can handle instead, when you get a new "kid" in, THAT'S the one you want to hold, and inspect and check out all their markings and commit them to memory! LOL


    I'm that way right now with the new big girl. I've got six other snakes I can hold, but she's one I keep peeking at and want to hold! LOL
