Like the last pic. She was trying to come up to you.

I love the ones that look like they're flying at the camera. "Ooooh, what's that?" Lol. She's a beauty
She does that all the time, but I've never taken a pic of it because it is blurry. Thanks for the compliment!
She sure was. She loves the phone. It's a gold iPhone so maybe it's the "oh shiny" factor! She's actually reached up and climbed onto it, lol.

Nice pics! Loopy likes to check out the camera lens too, always a blurry photo. One day I'll get a good shot of that!
I'll need a better camera for that. It is amazing how far they can reach up with no other support! Cleo sends her best wishes to her bud, Loopy!

These little ones are definitely a source of continuing amazement!
First, congrats again on Ninja!
I'm so glad I'm not the only one with a nosy snake! It's been rough going for me in the picture department for that reason until recently.
Update: I thought Cleo may be going into blue the other day when I took those pics; and when I put her back in the viv she went in her humid hide, so I didn't feed her. She's now really, really blue. I miss her; and I can't wait to see her color!
I also got a measurement of 19 1/2 inches. That's 1 1/2 inches this month. She's a long girl for her age and size.

I thought she might be! I almost mentioned it too, how funny. It's so hard to tell with those amel eyes! This is why you need another snake... everyone needs another snake that way when one is digesting, or shedding, or looks like it might poop, there's another snakey friend to hold instead!

Frankly, it was pretty obvious when I took her out to play, but she seemed up for it so I proceeded. I held off mentioning it until I knew for sure. Other than to see she's in the humid hide, I'm not bothering her today; but yesterday I should have taken a pictures of her "don't it make my red eyes blue" moment. It was unmistakable.
I do have two other snakes, though one is missing. I still hope. But I also have my little housie Clyde. You are so right. For the above mentioned reasons, ONE SNAKE IS NOT ENOUGH! Sorry for shouting but I couldn't help it
. I resisted having more than one at first but resistance is futile, I say, absolutely futile.

she's very cute on her blanket.
Has she darkened in color a bit or am I just imagining it?

Yeah I was thinking the same thing maybe it's just the lighting

Thank you! She's my girly girl
The blanket was bought at Ikea this summer with the specific idea that it would be easy to wash just in case. It has performed as planned
. It is the official snake blanket in this house!I think her color is a little darker each shed, but it is very gradual. She's still a very young lady at 4 months and 4 days, and butters are known to change a lot from hatchling to adult.
Thanks for your kind words!

Thank you. Yes, the blanket works well. One little secret, the squares are easy to measure so any top down shot on it can be used in Serpwdigets' snake measurer.

Thanks. Looks good, measures, and its machine washable. The last being the most important, lol.

Last night Cleo weighed in at 26 grams. So she weighs a gram more than last feeding. Considering that she shed and it was just over 2 weeks since her last meal I'm amazed at how efficient our little snake friends are with their food.
She easily downed a 4.6 gram pinkie last night. It was the biggest pinky I had. So next feeding I think she will be ready for the smallest fuzzy I have.
