...upgrade of course! Bobo, my '04 amel, who is around 730g is shown trying out his latest hide. Its a big cylinder of oatmeal. Perfect for adults who are way too big for the old paper towel tube, but still like jamming themselves into those types of hides.

Here is my '05 normal, Skizzard, wrapped up like a pretzel after scarfing down his f/t mouse tonight.

I've pretty much diagnosed myself as having H1N1. I woke up Monday morning with an itch in my chest and a dry cough. From that point it just snowballed. By Monday night I had a temp of 101*F. Achy, icky, etc. The usual flu type stuff. No better or worse than any other flu I've ever had. It is...

Some pics of my '04 snow, Glacier.

I fed Gladys tonight, but she decided she preferred me instead of a mouse. I reached into her cage to get her out and she latched on to my middle finger. I got the mouse to distract her and she let go. She's my 2005 Black Milksnake, and she's about 510g now. Not the longest Black Milk around...

I went on a week-long vacation to Vancouver, WA to see a Maltese dog show. I also did some sightseeing and was able to see a rattlesnake on the road. I drover by and had enough time to turn around and come back to see him cross the road. These pics were taken from inside my car. These pics were...

I know a 2nd grade teacher in San Jose, CA from my Maltese forum. We got to talking and I decided to send her 5 snake sheds to share with her kids. I created a little story and background about each snake that the shed belonged to. I sent her sheds of Bobo, Skizzard, Rosy, Bill, and Duke. Here...

A few nights ago I had the strangest herp dream. I don't know whether I was at the beach or in a sand box, I can't remember. Anyway, I was playing in the sand, just running my hands through it when I found some snakes. First I found a few boas of all different kinds. A normal redtail and a...

Some friends from my Maltese forum got me hooked on this silly "Farm town" game on Facebook. Does anyone else here play it? It's free and pretty fun. Its kind of like SimFarm. You plow fields and plant seeds, and you can trade animals and trees with your "neighbors". You can also hire other...

I haven't posted pics of Bobo in a long time. He's an '04 Amel. He was my first corn, and just a big baby really. He will come towards me when I open his tub. Not to escape, but to hang out. He's the one I could watch movies with if I wanted to. He likes to hide in my shirt or draped over my...

I decided to take some new pictures of Brownie. She's an '07 Butter Motley/Stripe from Joni Garcia. She's about 200g now. I've got a friend who wanted a few shed skins to give her grandkids, so I got a skin from Brownie, and a skin from Gladys. To show the contrast. Brownie's skin is clear...

I got Duke, a bullsnake, October 27th. So far, I've only been able to get him to eat twice. He's about 90g. He is probably an '08, but I don't know for sure. I got him from a guy on Craigslist that needed to rehome him. The first time I fed him was a week after I got him (11/3). I fed him a f/t...

Here's some post escape pics of Bill. :) Also a shot of the scratches on his back. I'm sure they'll be gone within a few sheds.

I figured it was time to post this after all. On Monday, Dec. 8th, I came home late and Bill's tank lid was all caved in...:(...and he was gone. And he is still gone. I set out a bottle trap, left some crinkly shopping bags laying around, put baby powder on the bathroom tile, just in case he...

Say hello to Duke. A guy in my town posted an ad for this 6-month old Bull snake on Craigslist. I've always wanted a Bull. He got it from a local pet store, but was moving and couldn't take it with him. He also had a 9ft. Albino Burm and a 4ft Red Tailed Boa that he had already found homes for...
