New Avatar!
Well, my BF came home with a new camera from his mom, so I took a ton of pics. Meerah is in blue, so she's not very bright. She is actually shedding as we speak so you may assume there will be more (and better) pics soon!

I am still figuring out the camera, but here is what I have.

1. Full body shot:

Thanks! She actually just shed (somewhat assisted by me with a wet towel). She got all of her skin on the top off, leaving the bottom on. That was an interesting operation trying to coax her out of her skin hahah. She dealt with it well though, and is beautiful and shiny new now! I didn't want to take more pics because I just probably stressed her out with the damp towel business.

Anyways, she really looks much better and brighter now!
 
Ok, so Meerah shed last night. I had to help her a little because for some reason she only shed her top half. Humidity was at 71% and temps were 93 basking and 79 degrees air temp. She came to me with mites, though. Even though they have been eradicated, it is probably why she shed so weirdly. She also had retained eyecaps, which sloughed off. Now I can finally see her pretty eyes!!

Nice! She looks so pretty! My BP is also in shed, and he looks similar to yours except he's way bigger and he is a high gold type (not a morph, just a type of normal like an okeetee in corns or something)
Good luck with her!
 
Thanks! I really like the pics I took of her today because I can see some detail in her eyes that wasn't apparent before. Ball pythons are really cool. I love taking pictures of her hahah
 
I love the 3rd post-shed pic! She's just posing so well for the camera.

Of course, she takes lovely shots in general. Mmmm... I'm getting the itch to take my BP out.
 
Thanks for the compliments guys! I don't know her weight, because I need to buy a scale. But she's about two feet long, maybe a little more. She's an 07.

I think next time I feed I need to take some pics of that. Unfortunately, she fed in her hide this time around, so I couldn't get a gaping-mouth/mouse butt picture as she swallowed.

I also like the third picture mainly because she looks so curious and bright-eyed. Royals sure have personality! Now that picture is my desktop. I think she looks like a curious puppy looking over the table for scraps.
 
Here is a pic I took yesterday but didn't include because it was fuzzy. But it is still soooo cute with her periscoping over the bed sheets. :p
