Mercedes is HOME!

[Kokopelli]

Absolutely gorgeous!

 

[Tula_Montage]

Oh shes sooooo grey and silvery and AMAZING!

I looked at both and BOTH are great looking! Congrats on the pick up from PJ @ PJCReptiles! Cant wait to see how they grow and change! Take care, LindsayMarie
ps. Hope those percentages work out for you!

Thank you! LOL. I think they look great too! I check on them (and all the other little ones) every few hours or so. I'm sure they're SICK of me. As for "percentages"... I just want to get them big and strong for now. I'll worry about percentages MUCH later!

Nice to see some one I know has the sister to my boy. It will be interesting to see how they both develop. She is very pretty Fred. Great pick up!

Thanks, Becky! It IS great that we have sibs! I look forward to seeing how they both "grow up". As you have the male, I'm sure he'll be "more handsome" as males tend to be more colorful all around. Does he have a name?

Absolutely gorgeous!

Thank you! When she has kids and your Mex/Mex has kids wanna trade??!! J/K. LOL.

Oh shes sooooo grey and silvery and AMAZING!

Thanks, Elle! Yeah, I love that about her. She's "worth every ounce"!

No, no name yet. Got any ideas?

No, no name yet. Got any ideas?

LOL. I come up with such HOKEY names... except for these two. Edmond and Mercedes seems to fit!

Here are my best guesses:

1. Zatarra (from the same movie)
2. Jacopo (again from the movie)
3. Troy (for a "troy ounce" of Platinum -- if they measure Platinum that way... LOL).

Noble names (He is a Platinum after all).

1. Frederick (LOL)
2. Alfred (LOL)
3. ...

I guess I'll stop there! LOL!

 

[RavenSpirit360]

NIce pick up!

 

[The_Thunderer]

It's been awhile since I posted pics of her... but here she is... the "other" platinum from PJCReptiles (sibling to Becky's). When in the center of the scale, she weighed in at 76 grams. She's MUCH bigger than she used to be. LOL. These were taken after midnight 03/01/09.

On the scale...

Peeking over...

"Let me out! Let me out!"

The colors are amazingly accurate... (Yeah, I can't believe it myself!).

I finally got a clear tongue shot!!! Whoo hoo!

A few more on the next post...

 

[The_Thunderer]

Trying to get her to stay on the towel!!!

Jenne, she's still got the "coma" on her head markings... LOL.

Trying to get a decent eye shot...

Some yellow is coming in!

She's much easier to photograph than her brother, Edmond - the ghost (see his own thread).

Say, "G'night, Mercedes".

I think she's looking really great! What do you all think?

 

[The_Thunderer]

Okay... a few more of her body...

Another one...

So silvery!!!

Penultimate pic for this update...

Last one! Hope you liked them!

Good pics, Fred. I think you showed the colors quite well.
That's a really nice looking snake, I like that the pattern is light but very clearly seen.

 

[The_Thunderer]

Thanks, Alan! She's one of my favs (ALL of them are, but you know what I mean). LOL.

 

[Iguanagirl8662]

Wow she is beautiful, you and Becky are teasing us with those goregous snakes, lol.

 

[RobbiesCornField]

She's such a lovely young lady!

 

[The_Thunderer]

Wow she is beautiful, you and Becky are teasing us with those goregous snakes, lol.

Can't rep you again, yet. LOL. Thank you so much!

BTW, I feel the same way when I see pics of the snakes that everyone else has too!

She's such a lovely young lady!

Thanks, Robbie!

 

[vetusvates]

She really is beautiful. Very ladylike. Exquisite coloration.

 

[sarcare]

She is SO purtty! I love her delicate coloration! I'm glad to see other big 08's, my ghostie girl is getting up there in size too!

 

[jenneses]

I love her! She's so pretty.

 

[EddieA]

Wow Fred! You've got some awesome kids!!!

 

[The_Thunderer]

Thanks, Eric! I really was "re-admiring" her while photographing her last night.

She is SO purtty! I love her delicate coloration! I'm glad to see other big 08's, my ghostie girl is getting up there in size too!

Yeah... in a LOT of ways, I kinda wish they would stay this size... but then we'd miss the "final" version when they're not pretty juvies anymore... but gorgeous adults.

I love her! She's so pretty.

Thanks, Jenne! Remember... lots of pics when you get yours!

Wow Fred! You've got some awesome kids!!!

Thanks, Eddie. Just remember that I love your kids too!

 

[Jenstar]

She is a beautiful girl.
