My Baby Okeetee
This is Asklepios, or Askie for short. I'm absolutely thrilled to have found him and been able to bring him home. I couldn't wait to share pics, so here's a couple sneaky cell phone pics of him. I can't wait to get better shots with my DSLR once he is settled in.
(I say 'he', but I actually don't know!) He loves to climb and has little fear so far. I've found him sleeping in the plants more than once. I may have to get him some ledges or an elevated hide. https://i.imgur.com/HbhjzgHl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/G6l6he8l.jpg https://i.imgur.com/QkcwoY7l.jpg |
Nice, where'd you find him?
Better not get addicted... |
I've already got plans for what species I want next, and what I'm going to do with his terrarium when he gets bigger and I upgrade it. ;)
I found him at a place called The 5280 Reptile Room in Wheatridge. I liked the place, the folks working there were really friendly and answered all my questions patiently. I hadn't expected them to have any corns, since no one else seemed to, much less two of the morphs on my short list (Okeetee and anery). |
Seeing that guy doesn't help me.
I have been fighting myself because I have been thinking that I need an Okeetee. :badidea: :-poke::uhoh: |
I'll gladly be a bad influence and add to that with this:

Beautiful little guy! Young corns are often very climby and can get into all sorts of nooks and crannies.
