Cheerio meets Kryptonite

My wife Sonia and Nicole (member NFS07) are taking our snakes to Nicole's sister's school on Thursday. We met in person today (she's really nice). She came over to my house with Kryptonite, her beauteous Okeetee.
The weather was really good today so we took them outside for a bit. I got a few pics, I'm getting better at using my daughter's camera, but I'm no photographer (yet).
When they were in the grass Kryptonite moved around a lot, and fast.
I called this pic "Kryptoblur n cheerislow"

We couldn't seem to get them together in the grass, I wanted a side-by-side but their heads were never near each other. Here's one for diameter scale.

It was nice holding a small snake for a while,

I'm used to holding this (same hand, phone pic)...

My snake rarely puts her body in a knot, in fact she resists your effort to guide her into a knot. She will drape herself in a loose ball around your hand or arm. Kryptonite actually balled himself up in Nicole's hand and could be passed from one person to the other without unraveling.

We had a nice visit and my wife is really jazzed about taking the snakes to the school.
 
I'm glad you had fun. It was great meeting you both and I look forward to Thursday. I still can't grasp how big your girl was. She looks great though! I love the picture of him diving under her, he loved your grass so much. I'm normally running around like a fool trying to catch him until he calms down so it was nice have four extra hands.

Could you email me the photos? Thanks
 
It was a fun play date. My boy still wanted to be out after we got home and we had him out for a good hour. He got a small meal last night to tie him over so he won't nip anyone thinking they are food on thursday. He calmed down a bit afterward.

Thanks for the replies.
 
Great pictures, and looks like a fun play-date for the snakies!

They didn't get together much, it was really a people meeting, we just wanted to see each other's snakes.

wow, really nice snakes and some good pics. lol she looks like a ball python.

Kryptonite was cool. Pretty colors. Do other corns ball up like that? Mine's usually stretched out looooong.
