Today, I started a reorganization of my quarantine/lab room. Things had been piling up under a table so I decided to sort through it and discard anything that need it. Under the table was my first microscope which was given to me. As I vacuumed around the area I thought I saw something out the corner of my eye but ignored it as my eyesight isn't what it used to be, this would prove false as the incident developed.
Once I reached the microscope I picked it up and place it on a stool that was near me. I then moved a heat pad and light to a different table. As I sat on the floor working with the powerstrip I glanced towards the microscope which was sitting a couple feet away from me. Coming out of the microscope was a young wild radix. Apparently she had taken up residency in the base of the microscope. I yelled for one of my kids to hand me a camera so I could get some shots of this inventive radix. Photo #1 is her coming out towards me. #2 is her taking a worm and #3 is her hiding in the base. After removing the base cover she took another worm and I pulled her out. Such funny little snakes.
