Willow Pics

[katach]

This sweet little girl is my snake.

[guidofatherof5]

Love that face.

[kibakiba]

She looks a lot like Mama. I like her. :D

[RedSidedSPR]

Me too. Awesome.

[katach]

She is my favorite!!! She is so sweet!

[katach]

We measured everyone today and she is 18in.

[katach]

Well 18 days after having her 8 GIANT babies she is about to shed. She is eating well and is very active. She had 2 pinkies on Tuesday and a few bites of what the babies didn't eat today. She's such a great snake!! I wuv her!

[RedSidedSPR]

I would wuv her too!:D

[katach]

You could wuv a part of her if you want one of her babies! :D

[RedSidedSPR]

I do! But I cant.

[katach]

Are you suuuurrreee?????? :D

[RedSidedSPR]

Yes dangit!:D

I would get one if I could.

[katach]

Here my pretty girl with her very blue eyes!

[guidofatherof5]

Pretty is right. Nice snake.

[katach]

Thanks! I love all our snakes, but Willow is my favorite, she is the sweetest!

[kibakiba]

She looks just like Mama, maybe they're long lost twins. Hehe. :D

[katach]

Maybe! Everyone has a twin somewhere!

[kibakiba]

Is she also a bit lazy? Mama is the master of laziness. ;)

[katach]

She does like to lounge more than the others. She doesn't bolt when she is startled either.

[kibakiba]

Yep, just like Mama. Mama likes to lounge around and lay in my blankets. :D

[kimbosaur]

I love that third pic of her face. So cute.

[katach]

Thanks! She is a sweetheart!

[katach]

Willow had a good shed today. She is looking good, gaining the baby weight back. Pinkies and scented worm chunks have a way of helping with that. :D

[kibakiba]

Awesome news! Any chance we can get a picture of the big, beautiful momma? :D

[katach]

Most definitely! I'll have a photo op with her tomorrow!

[kibakiba]

Can't wait!! :D

[katach]

Well since it's 2:23am you won't have to wait too long :D

[kibakiba]

Haha, true. ;) I might be going to bed soon, though. I think I got a stomach bug. Or maybe its the cramps I normally get with PMS :rolleyes:

[katach]

Aw, hope you feel better soon. Snakes pic will help!

[kibakiba]

Yes, yes they will! Haha. Holding my snakes didnt seem to help, since I'm a bit sluggish, and the two I tried holding had a lot of energy... All of my snakes are energetic when I'm tired, and tired/pissy when I'm energetic! Silly snakies.

great pictures Kat this site has so much going for it, you get to make friends all over the world, you get help and advise when you need it, you get to see other members garters, and on a really great day someone may have posted their herping adventures along with photo's, what more could you ask of life :):)

[katach]

It was so warm today, all our snakes were very energetic. We didn't even use the heat light today. It was 82 in the apartment. The snakes all said "That's just right!" :)

[kibakiba]

I gotta agree with that! To me it's more like a nice, close family all over the world, and everyone happens to enjoy garter snakes just as much or even more than I do! :D

That's exactly how I feel! I love this place! It's like a big happy (mostly) family!

[katach]

Here is the proud mama after her shed yesterday!

[guidofatherof5]

Sweet snake. Love that face.

[katach]

Thanks! I think she is looking good for having babies only 22 days ago.

[RedSidedSPR]

She's awesome!

[katach]

:D Thanks!

[kibakiba]

What a pretty girl :D I love her face, she just seems so calm.

[katach]

She really is. She is the calmest of the bunch. I wuv her!

[katach]

Haven't posted about Willow for a while, so here's an update. She is doing very well. She also is going to shed soon. The milky white tummy started yesterday. She is eating well and seems very happy. She loves to twist around my glasses while she is with me. She also loves to watch TV. Bill woke me up this morning by having her smell my ear. :D She is such a sweet girl and my favorite!

[EasternGirl]

That's cute about her twisting around your glasses and waking you up by smelling your ear. I'm glad to hear that she is doing well.

[katach]

Willow is so cute. She falls asleep in the strangest positions.

I think she must be pretty content with her life here.

[kueluck]

She's a cutie! And since they don't have working eye lids, how do you know when a snake is sleeping?

[guidofatherof5]

Usually their head will be resting on the substrate or it will be hanging down.

Of course, snoring is a dead give away.:D

[katach]

My sweet Willow just hanging out with me.

[guidofatherof5]

Stop tying those snakes in knots Kat.:D

[ProXimuS]

She really is a cute girl! I just saw those pics of her sleeping. Those are hilariously adorable:D

Is she an ordinoides?

[katach]

Yes she is. This is Fish Bait's mom. We have had her for a year now. She has always been the sweetest girl. She didn't even musk when caught.

[guidofatherof5]

Willow is beautiful.;)

[katach]

Thanks! I think so too.

[kerensa]

She looks like she is smiling. :)

[EasternGirl]

I just love her scales! She is really a lovely girl!

[-MARWOLAETH-]

I can haz ordinoides?

[katach]

Someday William, someday. :)

A couple of our seem to watch TV when there is something on with fast moving lights and colours. :)

[katach]

Willow has been showing some strange behavior since her double shed. But she seems to be doing alright. She is eating and drinking and pooping just fine. She just slithers upside down most of the time. I got a great pic of her this evening just after waking up from a snuggle nap with the babies. What a yawn!

She is such a special snake to me. She will be spoiled till the end.

[guidofatherof5]

Nice yawn, indeed.
