    Success Story(meet Pinch)

    I think it's time for everyone to meet this wonderful little female named Pinch. She was born last year and I've had to keep a special eye one her as she's matured. I spotted her when she was born because of the birth defect on her back. It did cause her some mobility problems for the first few months of her life but then she was fine with it. It looks like she was pinch on the back, hence the name.
    As she's getting bigger this area on her back seem to be less and less of a problem. She's a docile and very curious snake.
    Hey Rhea, How do you like that green head?
    She's been living in the upstairs TLC enclosure for a long time but is now going to be put in general population. I believe left on her own she would not have made it. She's a good kid.

    I was going to comment on the shape of her head too. Looks like a spear point.

    It's simply different, in a sticky out sort of way .... it makes her extra special when it comes to cuteness factor.
