Progression thread: Tango the Cayenne Fire

Tango was a good sport and posed for us to test out our new light tent. It's so hard to capture his red color.

Tango watched some livestreams with me yesterday. Somehow only my phone's camera seems capable of capturing his red color.

He jumped to 52g seemingly overnight.
 
I'm really surprised at how much white he still has on his belly. He has a lot of red speckling, but is mostly white until just past his vent. You can see there where the underside of his tail turns tomato red.
 
So Tango is now 10g teetering towards 11. He's actually starting to look a bit bigger to me now. I nabbed a shot of him climbing up the side of his tub that reminded me of one I got the first week he was here.

Tango got to meet Oscar briefly! Kitty was VERY interested, but Tango seemed to not really notice him.

Off-topic, I finally had a hatchling really nail me good, though it was a milk snake not a corn. He later coiled my finger and tried to eat it. It was cute! This happened over a week ago and there's still a mark on my wrist. :laugh:

Where did you get the tub you are keeping him in? How much? Looks like it fits all your decorations and works nicely thinking about grabbing one
 
I'm going to pick one up tomorrow. I have a candy cane and zombie Miami and the way and 20 gallon tanks are no longer space efficient lol thanks!
 
I'm just blown away by that color. That's such a great pic. At 60 grams they really start to fill up one hand! They do grow fast. My little one weighed in at 56 grams last night so I identify with that :)
 
To be fair, my phone picks up on reds pretty well, so he's not *quite* that red in person, but pretty close. He practically glows next to my lavender bunch.
 
And then there's our DSLR that has trouble picking up reds...these were adjusted to be more true to life.

Really need to get better backgrounds for the lightbox. And find a better place to set it up...
 
Silly noodle surprised me with a shed yesterday. I thought he was just starting to cloud over...apparently he cleared up fast. Guess we have to get NEW pics. Ugh! :laugh:
 
Decided to weigh again before today's feeding and he's just hit the 70g mark empty! It's so weird how different two snakes can be that are the same weight...he still takes forever to swallow medium-sized fuzzies while Delta was horking down hoppers at the same weight.
