Some pics of my little hognose Phillipe. Ahh! A mammal!

Just in case there are any SRQ locals, I'm trying to rehome/sell my tangerine honduran milk snake. I really need her out of my apartment - we just don't have the room for her! She's so sweet, about 320g, eats f/t with a really intense response and is an overall sweet little snake. Unsexed, I...

Well I've had a long ride with my little hognose. I took him from a friend back in October '13 and one managed to get him to eat maybe 5 total times from October to July! He didn't seem to lose any weight from October until at least March, but in May he started dropping. He started at approx...

I saw this corn at a show and the owner said they had no idea what he was! They also said apparently Kathy Love (who I know is around here sometimes) suggested she breed it to a ghost or a snow to find out. What do you think? It was almost blue in person. Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

Hey all! Sorry for the lack of updates. She's pounding mice and starting to get a little less fiesty with me, but she sure is a handful compared to my puppydog corns and hognose lol!. She's also blue right now, here's some pictures. She's doing good! Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

I got a call from a friend who said his friend needed help with a snake. My friend's friend has been taking care of his ex-roomates bunny - she apparently just left three weeks ago and didn't really say where she was going and they seem to believe she had no intention of returning, and she made...

Here's a picture from today... when I get home from work I'm going to give it a soak and make sure the shed is gone... Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

So between now and when I posted the redness faded a lot. It was more of a beet red and now it's more maroon. Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

So I got this little baby in mid March. I didn't know when I bought her but she was just blue, and she shed her second day with me. It was complete except her tail, a little further up the vent to the tip. I got her out and she was very irate. I soaked and soaked and rubbed gently to no avail...

I always wanted a lavender and I finally found one! She was a plump 13g when I got her and she's now about 15.5g. Growing like a weed and quite bold! She was the first of my snakes to bite me, however I was trying to remove stuck tail tip shed so I understand why she did it.. she didn't even...

On 1-30-14 my male corn regurged. He has been on protocol, I've been feeding him small pinkies ever since. He's had 5 meals without an issue. The first four were slit pinkies, the fifth was a slit peach fuzzy, and this last one was a small 3.8g slit fuzzy. I fed him that last night at about...

It's hard to see from the picture. They certainly aren't jet black, probably off black. He did leave his small hide and investigate how I moved around his viv and snuggled up in the warm side so that's a good sign I think. I put his favorite tube right on the uth. Sent from my LG-D800 using...

Found a really ugly looking poop - almost looked like melted candlewax. Kind of a yellowish with some dark brown and white, certainly not like his normal poops. It came after a regurge. I'm on protocol and confident he'll make a good recovery, just worried about him and could use some...

I had no issues with my local petstore, until now.. I was buying frozen pinkies, and then asked for frozen fuzzies. They said they had none (huh?) and then said they'd freeze some for me - I asked for 5, because Rigby was just a week or two away from being able to eat one. So they freeze them...

Here he is! :) I think the picture is a little more saturated than he actually is - not sure why. He's actually surprising me with how sweet, healthy, strong and resilient he's been. He's never bitten me, never regurged and never had a bad shed - am I getting good at this or what? :dancer: I...
