The collection

I've been meaning to share my collection with you all for some time now and since I just posted this in the other thread, I thought "might as well go ahead and put up the good ole collection thread" so here goes!

The corn I'm pretty sure is an Amel. Could be wrong though. I got him from Petsmart in August ( I got REALLY lucky that he was healthy) and hes gone from around 10g to 40some odd these last few months. Is now eating hoppers and is darn happy about it.

The King I picked up at Repticon in Columbia, SC. Hes a 2006. He's by far the most active and hungry of my collection and is always roaming his tub, burrowing and looking for food. If he even smells food, he starts huffing and going nuts. Very interesting guy.

The BP was the second snake I got and I adopted her from a young lady who kept her in a 40g breeder with one hide, heat lamps, 6q shoebox water bowl and repticarpet. Shes a Normal with only 2-3 Alien heads with a great personality. Now shes in her 41q tub and much bigger. At 2.5 years when I got her in September she was around 980-1000g. Now shes 1432g.

Sorry for the quality. Only camera I have is the iphone.

Nice little collection! That's a really nice growth rate for your Amel! Hope s/he keeps it up for ya!

Also, nice BP. I love the elongated pattern on her neck. She looks great! I hope to add a BP to my collection some day soon. ;)

Thanks for sharing pics!
 
Thank you. My BP right now is driving me up the wall. SHe constricted her F/T small rat and didnt eat it. So I offered again and she turned her nose up. Now shes giving me the hungry look. Sheesh...
 
Aww man, that's too bad! I suppose the best thing you can do is just wait it out, don't offer food for a little longer than normal.

She'll be able to go a week without food (unless shes a chronic non feeder), and the chances of her eating after a longer period with no food offerings are greater than if you're offering her food every day.
 
I am going through roughly the same problem with my snakes right now. Only one of them ate. Unfortunately two of the ones that didn't eat, are live feeders right now... So, now I have two live pinkies that are just chilling in my house. I hope that if I have them put in a smaller container with one of the snakes that they will eat...
