It's a GIRL - PICS

[aSnakeLovinBabe]

The "male" flame I went to pick up today turned out to be female. YESSS. It's a NICE snake. Not to mention the free vision cage. Best $50 I ever spent! Here is a photo of her, as well as a bunch of other snakes. She does indeed appear to be erythristic and flame. (well, thats kind of redundant because a flame IS an erythristic)

Next up are the promised but terrible photos of the natrix! They are shy, and very grumpy. I didn't want to bother her for too long! first is natrix natrix, then natrix tesselata!

Here is my iowa albino axanthic. This snake, went from being, oh that's pretty cool, to WOW that snake is freaking AWESOME when I realized that even though she is albino her entire body has a BLUE sheen. I kid you not! A blue albino snake! It's just about impossible to capture with a camera yet, she is too small, so I waited for the sun to be almost set and photographed it in low lighting. For the most part, I captured it, the photos are edited a bit to bring it out but I swear up and down, that is what it looks like, there is a BLUE stripe and checkers on this snake and it only gets darker with every shed!

One day, Shannon...

Whenever you post pictures, I enter about 10 different layers of jealousy. I just can't help it! - Your snakes are always absolutely stunning.:D

The fish is gorgeous too. - Where is it native to?

[gregmonsta]

Fantastic :D ... especially the naja natrix :D

[aSnakeLovinBabe]

thanks :D

they are just so cute when they are angry! So far, I find them to be exactly like my garters. Flopping fishies drive them nuts. The only thing funny about them is when I walk into the room, they are always basking and the moment they see me they RUN!!! Except for the littlest one (the one photographed on the newspaper pellet) He's already figured out that I will not hurt him and stays coiled nicely where he sits. He's the one that ate two little fishes right in the palm of my hand.

[tminc]

You could be a photographer also! Looks like you have plenty to do anyway,beautiful collection,very nice shots!

[garterchick]

All really nice snakes. The low end flame is one of a group of babies I sold to Scott, guess he didn't like them, glad you do.

[Destro]

All of them are gorgeous! Even the fishie =)

[aSnakeLovinBabe]

Hmm, I am not sure! I thought he had said he produced her but maybe I heard wrong. I love her though, she actually is not as low end as she looked when I first got her. She is just blossoming into fluorescent oranges. I have another, but I am not keeping her, I will be gifting her out to Don with the rest of his stuff (surprise, Don!!!)
