he was a pretty cool one. looked very nice, and never tried to bite me. belonged to a friend though..i just wound up watching it for a bit longer than i had expected.

they're quite awesome in my opinion. i've had and raised a few, but have sold them all off. i want to get one eventually to keep but havent had the time. i especially like heavier bodied snakes and am working on getting into those, but damn you just cant beat a cornsnake in terms of their personalities. and they are just fascinating to watch when they're on the move in their tanks/tubs.

you mean like "jungle" in reference to the colors/patterns on snakes?

we're too lazy to take pics of our snakes. one of these days we might get around to it and i'll post our collection maybe.

this is some bitch at a bar holding the one burm we have.. would you believe he's 12?

so that is Boa constrictor imperator? i think the common name i'm used to for that snake is columbian red tailed boa.

well i didn't mean the snake in>>227735i meant the previous one.
>> Anonymous
>>227793
It is a redtail. Not sure what kind, but they call that particular morph "super jungle"
>> Anonymous
>>227792
yes. jungles and super jungles are imperator.
columbians are b.c.c, though, not b.c.i

ive always wanted a ball python, but i've been looking for a breeder in my area for awhile now with no luck

aw well

you don't need a breeder in your area. snakes ship well because they like closed dark spaces.

i'm kind of a 'try before you buy' kind of person

however in a year i'll be moving, so i think i;ll wait to get one until then so i don't have to lug it across the country

not sure how you'll manage "trying" a snake before you buy it..but you should have no trouble finding a ball python (Python regius) on sale wherever you move to. they are one of the most common snakes available through pet stores.

worst case, if you hate it, you can sell it back to the shop (for significantly less than you paid) or post something on craigs list..or on a snake forum. provided you aren't moving to the boonies, you should be able to find someone in your area willing to take it off your hands.

yeah, i just mean i'd like to see it and be sure it's healthy.. i'd have no problems buying from a pet store, but the only one in my area that even has snakes takes awful care of them. i'm moving to a much nicer town though and i'm sure i'll find something there
>> Anonymous
>>228299
Being naive here, how does one deprive snakes of proper care aside from making sure there safe and well fed? Also the phrase snake abuse sounds well...
>> spiderman !!Q+JluTncCte

>>228335
sounds good?

some places will neglect snakes..at best (for these types of shops) they'll add more water to the dish (which can become quite nasty after a while..not sure the snake minds, but i do) and add food. in a worst case scenario, they'd not notice some non eaten food. i haven't seen that before though.

i have seen places that have snakes with shedding issues..they just leave them, they don't remove the snake to help them shed the rest of their skin.

it's pretty straight forward really..think of bad things a private snake owner can do..and apply that to a pet store.

Ahh, Spiderman's made my day yet again with those beauties.

Local pet shop in my area has a Burm for sale, baby still, and not quite for the cuddling. You'd think the shop owner/workers would take some time to handle the animals they get in, get them socialized before selling them. No one likes a really snappy snake, though some are just naturally a little foul tempered. My Blood Python was like that for a time, but with enough TLC she settled down.

Pic is my ball python, Raphael.

thanks.

nice looking snake. i'm honestly not crazy about the heavier bodied snakes..then again, i've never owned one. not that i don't like them..just am crazy about venomous snakes..and only owned Colubrids..

if you're interested..i am uploading assloads of images from the st. louis zoo herpetarium and insectarium to rapidshare...roughly 1.5 gigs. i'm gonna post the links in a thread once i'm finished. also have uploaded some random collections of images of my own collection. i've posted those links..but will probably repost them in a few days when i upload the last of the st louis zoo.
>> Tired Anon !EHsj4EGwIQ

I am most definitely interested in those pictures. You uploaded some a while ago, but I missed out on the majority. I thank you kindly!

God, piebalds are so beautiful.

I haven't had a snake since I was a wee pup, I miss being able to watch them. Gotta move again, maybe even twice in the next few months but after I settle I think I'm gonna start looking into a snake.. something nice small and easygoing.

RS is being kinda flaky, so i can't upload any more of the pics from the zoo.

here are some of random critters i used to own.
