    Angel

    Angel is doing fantastic. Was a little shy at first but has begun to tolerate an audience of people, them being my brothers and me. It took a while for Angel to learn how to climb up and over the side of the water bowl but I'm happy to say he/she has figured it out. So far Angel has eaten about five baby guppies the past two days. Haven't handled him/her since the capture. Angel's body is so soft and delicate I don't wish to accidently hurt it, especially since I keep my nails long. Once Angel grows bigger then will I begin to handle him/her more and also perhaps switch the paper towel to cypress mulch.

    How pretty! It looks like his dorsal stripe does like my snake's does, and starts off really light just on top of the head and is darker the rest of the way down. Mine is T. p. orarius, so his stripes not as dark as Angel's. I like Angel, he looks so tiny

    Angel is definately lighter than the others. I'm guessing he'll darken with maturity?
