My first snake

[Nevadamoon]

Meet Eleanor, my first snake, and a ball python at that. I didn't handle her when she first got here, and about a week in she shed. She's now finished shedding, and so tonight I offered her her first f/t mouse (Previously she was fed live.). At first she was interested but didn't quite strike, so I left it be in her tank and within an hour she'd devoured it. Finally, in a few days I'll be able to handle her (and take additional pictures.).







My camera doesn't do her justice, so I'm eager for when I can take some pictures without the flash. She's a normal BP, at least that's what her breeder told me and it'd make no sense to lie about something like that.

very pretty one you got there, I got a normal gal like that also.

She is very nice looking!

Thankyou! She has a lot of yellow on her that I hope she keeps as she gets older. Someone told me that she looked like a pastel, but I've seen pastels and I don't really see the resemblance. She's a pretty shy girl, but she hasn't been handled by me at all yet, nor by the breeder.

She is very bright, but I'd say a very nice normal.

I have a hard time telling morphs and what not but I know that pastels have green eyes, so I usually go from there!
