Sadie just likes to swim I think. I put her swimming bowl back in her enclosure for her and she starting swimming again. She looked very happy. I took her out and gave her two big fat worms to eat...she took them from me while sitting on my arm. I might give Sammy another worm tonight too. He is still spazy when I go near his tank...and if I hold him he kind of freaks out a bit...but he will calm down if I stroke his neck. Little Joe ate a dish of worms and crawled around in them and got himself all dirty again! He has a big fat tummy now. The babies ate worms and started going crazy for them and getting all tangled up around each other and nipping each other on the head. They are crazy, fat, food fighting little demon babies! Lol....

Great pics. Congrats to Marnie and Steve both ends of the snake exchange went off without a hitch and everyone seems to be settling in fine (I just read the last 6/7 pages of the thread). Marnie LOVE Mr. Joe! Where is he calling home? With the other albinos or the babies? Any time you want to share pics of those albinos I'm your guy. I don't know if it is because of finding ours and taking her in or what but I love the albinos.

After quarantine, little Joe Peachbottom will be going in with the babies until he is big enough to go in with the other albinos. He is still very small...he is actually about the same size as my babies...so he will be perfect in with them. He has a bit of growing to do before he can go in with Hermes and Possum...as they are both about a foot long now....probably a bit longer...I need to measure them both...Possum is actually a bit longer than Hermes. I will get some pics of all of the albinos up for you soon Dan!

One of the babies is getting ready to shed soon. I see blue eyes and dull skin...and he or she is hiding a lot. I think it is Ariadne...but I really have trouble telling them all apart now. All I know is that two of the babies...who I think are Ari and Perseus are downright piggies and the other...who I think is Zeus...does not always want to eat. I often have to take the one out and put him in a little container with his food to get him to eat. I need to try to look at them all soon and see if I can try to figure out if they are male or female.

Everyone else is doing well. Sadie is not hiding like she was. She has a UTH now and a little cave and she seems to love lying over the UTH. She is very active and exploring. Sammy is still shy...but he likes to poke his little head out. Little Joe is very active. Seeley is good...Hermes and Possum are good. Cee Cee is doing great...still restless...but seems healthy. She still hasn't eaten though.

That sounds great can't wait to see the pics!

So...Steve...was Sammy always a pistol? Or is it just me? Lol...I took him out tonight to feed him and we were butting heads to say the least. He was thrashing all over and attempting to bite me and I had to keep telling him that we were not going to do things like that. Then he would settle down a bit and sit in my hand and eat politely for a minute...and then he would get stubborn and angry again and decide that he was in charge and that he was going to bite the crap out of me. I won the battle. He ate his worms and my fingers are still on my hand. We are going to have to have some bonding sessions or something!

Sadie enjoyed sitting in the front of my shirt and leaning out and eating her worms! Little Joe and the babies are all very fat right now...ha ha. Seeley ate a little. Possum and Hermes had some pinky and look all fat and happy. Cee Cee is still refusing to eat.

The biting is something new but the rest is typical male radix attitude.
