Finally out of Qtine-1st pics
I never planned on getting a 'monster', and was in the middle of downsizing my pet collections, when an opportunity came up to get a really great snake cheap from a friend in need.
"Sun" is the coolest reptile I've ever owned, more calm and easy to handle than any of my Corns. She is now 48" and I'm guessing, an '06.
I've been fattening her up, but I think might still be a tad thin. She was soo skinny when I got her and was having a bad shed. I can still see her backbone a little so I was wondering if anyone else thinks she should be a little fatter.
I've given her many baths and she likes the water. This is a wk past the last shed. I had her sexed and was given a clean bill of health. One more shed should clean up the small scratch and noserub she originally had when I got her in March.
I always said I never wanted a snake that would grow too big for me alone to deal with, but friends and family were very supportive and offer all the help and space I'll need as she grows.
Such a gentle beast I couldn't say no to the guy, and now is the star of my collection of odd critters. So here's my girl, "Sun", a young albino Burmese python!
