Hi Cindy,
Great Picture! The specimen is an Acrochordus javanicus. I have had him since 2002. I find them very easy to care for and don't experience any of the spotting that afflicts many. Personally, I find neglect to be very beneficial with these guys. They are not as delicate as some think but avoiding regular handling should be rather obvious. Kinda like handling a spiny gob-a-snot...

Very cool snakes though!

Cheers!
