    That kind of fall might stun a baby but don't worry. It usually doesn't result in injury. Small ones could easily take a fall of 6 feet, land smack on hard floor, and be fine. As for the chair, now that could be deadly.

    Yeah, Tiny, when I first got him, isn't like my other northwesterns, he's extremely clumsy and doesn't "hang on" to me like the others. He's wrapped around my finger, sure but if he's just slithering around, if he gets to the edge, he just falls. Most of the time I'm really paying attention to him at all times to make sure that doesn't happen but if I look away once, he seems to be like a child and takes off. Needless to say, I looked away and he fell onto my leg and before I could grab him, he slithered off my leg and fell onto the floor. He's fine though, but he hasn't tried that stunt again.

    Tell me about it. I took my big 3.5 foot concinnus girl to petco yesterday. As I was showing her off to the clerk, she opened up and took a huge, smelly dump right there. I was so embarrassed.

    Made more progress with Snap, she didn't even fuss much when I picked her up, she usually poops and musks all over me and acts like I'm killing her. She didn't freak out afterward either. She's hanging out and gets to watch Zombieland with her mom and dad for being so good.

    Snakey wanted love, it was so cute that I had to get a video of it. He rarely does this but it sure is adorable when he does.

    Very nice video Chantel
    One of the reasons I love garter snakes is their curiosity in us and what we do. They look very comfortable with you.
    Who was that on top of the camera?

    That was Mama, she was sleeping on top of the camera, haha. I was holding her a little bit before Snakey came out out of the tank. After I grabbed the camera she moved onto it and started resting on it. Both her and Snakey have a fascination with cameras, any time one is near them they want to coil up on it.

    Re: Meet the gang!

    She's been less skittish and spending more time with Snap, who she used to avoid. I frequently find her and Snap coiled up with each other and she's started to eat again. She gets startled really easily still but as long as there's no sudden movements she's okay. She also doesn't like being handled too much, but since I know that she gets handled a bit less than the others. I only really pick her up if I'm checking her out and making sure everything is okay. Other than that, interaction is just feeding. She seems to be happier that way.
