    Snapping baby BP! Attaboy!

    I just hatched out my first cluth and one laaaaaaaazy male normal refused to leave the egg for 5 days after all his sibs.

    I sat there mulling over this snake, worrying about him, babying him... and what did he do last night... JAH(!)... no loyalty whatsoever!

    I peeked in and to mist him, keep in mind he is just going into shed, and sure enough he rears up and starts *attempting* to hiss with a full on open mouth. Best part was the he held it for a good 45 seconds. Then I tried again and sure enough the son of Chucky rears up again and tries to tag me!

    I was SO excited!

    My life is very small, but I got such immense pleasure from this wee snake being all bad and phreaky.

    Just thought I would share...

    (I apologize for the lack of pics, but he is just going into shed right now - and is a whopping 62g).

    PS: Here is monsieur paresseux in the egg... GET OUT ALREADY!

    And despite what Deb has suggested, I did not cut the eggs open with a chainsaw.
