Here are a few pics of Forry, my West African melanoleuca; he's about 2.6m, as alert as the polylepis, and doesn't bother with the tiresome traits of the lesser Naja species, such as hooding and mock-striking. He's awesome :D http://www.sareptiles.co.za/gallery/albums/userpics/10007/abj_sized.jpg ht...

I put mine into a lukewarm bath twice a week. She'll drink for a bit and then just chill. About 50% of the 25% of the time she''ll poo, the lukewarm water helping with their infamous constipation

>>"(LANESVILLE, Ind.) -- A 23-year-old Southern Indiana man is dead after being attacked by his pet snake. It happened in Lanesville, Indiana Monday evening. An autopsy report shows Patrick Von Allmen's 14-foot reticulated python crushed him to death. WAVE 3's Anne Marshall has the story. It wa...

Strangely enough, they tend to visit me a lot...

...many thanks to all who've sent wishes etc.
I'm back full time, and have missed you all.
Right, now to catch up....

No offence Nickie! She is a large lass, and getting larger by the minute it seems.
I think her mom was close to 7+m, so ...help!!!!

my male seems incredibly hungry for the last 6 weeks or so. he has taken while the female has refused
Trimeresurus...go figure

The entire bloody species is in dire need of being sub-specied !!!!!

Last week mine hopped out of the tub, landed in a bucket with rat pups and promptly bit and killed 4 before getting out again and trying to bite me. Always fun to work with them!
