Baby Rainbows

This little gal has the highly amusing trait that she likes to sleep off the ground. Almost every time the drawer is opened, she is perched on the top/side of her water bowl, one coil anchored around the lip for security, as she snoozes away. She has four “mickey” dorsal spots on her back. Her side patterns are uniform crescents. She is a potential holdback.

This little man has a lighter head than his littermates, which sometimes portends good things with color. He has one longer dorsal chain of four to five linked spots, and four “mickeys”. His side patterns are uniform crescents. He also has a slightly sensitive stomach, and had partial regurgs twice early on (one of which I think was my fault, due to spraying his drawer too soon after feeding).

This little man has several small dorsal spots on his neck, as well as two “mickeys” on his back. His side patterns are uniform crescents. He is one of the friendliest of the litter, and during the last cleaning session crawled right over to me and up my arm.

This little gal was the preemie of the litter, who almost drowned before being plucked to safety. As such, her development lags that of her littermates: she was the last to shed in every round (behind even picky eater #05), and still has less developed color. She has large dorsals on her back with two “mickeys.” Her side pattern is very unusual, with every crescent not only thin, but only partially expressed, as if someone when in and erased half of each marking. I expect her to be a unique adult who would mix well with a eclipse breeding program.

OH my! I want #8 to come home with me!

Oh my goodness they are just precious!! I want a rainbow someday, they're so beautiful - yours especially in these pics!

Thank you, Jinx! We're still working though our Wait List, but no one has claimed that one yet! If interested, let me know via Facebook or e-mail.

Rainbows are the eye candy of the snake world, Sarah! If you ever do take the plunge, we'd be delighted to help you out -- even if just for info, and whether you buy from us or not.

Thanks! I've followed you on facebook for when the time comes. Right now it's mostly a matter of apartment complex rules - we already have our allowed amount of small caged reptiles. But once that's not an issue, I may be in touch...! Good luck finding homes for these, they are just wonderful.

heh - meant to put "small, caged reptiles" in quotes... our boa and ball python haven't been an issue so far anyway!
