Thai Bamboo Ratsnake (Oreocryptophis porphyraceus coxi) Progression Thread

This is the thread where I will update you all on Darwins progression. I have had him for three days now so I got him out and held him. Surprisingly, he showed no signs of aggression at all. I then placed him on a plant to take some shots of him. He was a perfect model. Then I got out the scale. He weighed in at an even 10 grams.

I also gave him his first meal with me and I left him alone for an hour. I just checked in and he had eaten the small pinkie. Now he is off to rest for a few days!

It is March 1st so I was thinking I would maybe update this thread once a month with his new weight and some pictures. I have faith you all will keep me honest to that! ;)

Ok, here is Darwin at 10 grams!

What an absolutely Awesome Rat Snake. I am emerald green with envy.
You lucky so & so. You had better keep to the monthly progression Pics because I doubt that I will ever be able to get my hands on one here in South Africa.

Ciao
 
You've really given us a great drool-fest of a photoshoot there! Darwin is perfect and perfectly showcased, thanks for sharing!

Just awesome!
 
Great pictures David. I can't wait to see the progression pics.
I can only imagine he will get to be even more beautiful then he is now!
