    Hmmm....I wonder if that is Azule's problem, he kind of acts like he did in the fridge - moving really slow. Although, the temp difference should have been big enough, I'll try raising the humidity....

    You'll have to show us pics if you get the rat snake kevin. I've been wanting one of those too. It might just be my next snake as well.

    Re: Finally!!!

    well the thing is they both sit under the lamp its tends to get up to 82 in there on good days and i mist one or twice a day howver ive been examinging george the past few days and i noticed just on the edges of her belly are turning a little blueish and today looking a lot more dull and her eyes atarting to get blurry and the scale plates on her head seperating indidcating that she is going into shed finally i cant wait

    and as for the rat snake well i almost have enough money for it but i will need to get a new screen top for my 10 gallon (snake is still young) the mice got on top of the tank by climbing the water bottle and chewed up the nylon screen but depending on how much my tax return is i will problably be able to buy a 20 gallon(hopefully long) and a screen top for that as well

    if you want an idea of what the rat snake looks like just google image leucistic texas rat snake

    i just fell in love with this snake when i held him amazingly calm for being so young

    Don't fall for it Kevin. It's a ploy to get you to buy her. Then she'll turn Evil Rat Snake on you. Trust me on this one. Mine appears to live in a tank, but I suspect she already has tunnels and an underground bunker where she plots and schemes and draws schematics on how to kill me. LOL
