I like that name! I considered it when I was naming either Adlai or Azaria because I wanted an Australian name. I used to know a marsh hawk named Sid, although I can't remember why we named him that...
Thanks, Nanci. I think I'll keep it as his name. I like "Sid" for short as well, it will give his name a little more spunk.
Oh god why are Womas so beautiful
why
They really are, aren't they
? And sweet by nature as well!
Ok now my interest is sparked! Off to research these now and see if I should get one ha!!
Are they pretty hardy and easy to keep? I hear females get bigger from my quick google search
I would say that he is very hardy and easy to keep. I have only had him for around 4 months, but everything has been smooth so far (knock on wood). He sheds with no issues, and with NH being somewhat humid as is, I rarely have to soak him to assist his shedding. He needs a bit higher of a hot spot (I have it at around 88-90), but other than that, I keep him just as I would my Corn Snakes. Also, females do get larger. I've seen mixed reports on sizes, and read somewhere that locale will also determine size a bit, but from the averages that I've read I would say that males average around 5ft, females 6ft (someone with more experience please correct me if I'm wrong.
Aside from the husbandry info, he's just a great snake to have. I love his somewhat impressive size, and he has the sweetest personality (when he's well fed). He gets a bit more excited when he's hungry, but even so, he's always a very docile snake.
very cute expression
Thanks, Oren! He is one of the few snakes that I actually find "Cute" as well. He has such a shy/sweet face, to me at least.
