My first adoptee was an 8 year old female BP. Her owners had moved into town, and could not find any place that would let them keep her.She was spot on healthy except for her eyes, which were in bad shape. Multiple retained eyes caps, and damage. Here are what her eyes looked like when I got her.
After much TLC over the next year and really babying her eyes each shed, this is what her eyes look like now. She also gave me a nice clutch of 10 eggs this year.
Since then I have adopted a Cali King and a adult MBK. The MBK is the most docile snake I have ever come across, and is PERFECT for educational programs, as is the BP. Both kings were from military guys that got transfered and just wanted to find them good homes. There is not a reptile rescue here, and reptiles turned into animal control are normally destroyed. My adoption stories.
