Here are a few photos of my beloved Leucistic Texas Rat Snake I got from Doug (DMong) last year. Though you'd never know it from these photos, she's really quite a sweetheart.

Brief background info: When I was looking at her before I bought her Doug told me she could be a bit testy at times. She's never bit me, struck at me, etc... I've talked to Doug a few times since and told him how sweet she's been for me & he swears it's not the same snake. Ha! Ha!

While spending some time handling her last night I decided to take a few pics to show Doug. My wife held her for several minutes while I set up the photo-shoot scene. As you can tell from the first pic she was fine at the beginning. I guess she heard me mention Doug's name & then she put on quite a show.

All of her actions were posturing, not striking/lunging. She's a pretty good bluffer. After the photo-shoot she behaved good, as usual, when handled. Doug, I'm beginnin' to wonder if she just flat out doesn't like you. Ha! Ha! Many thanks! I'm tickled to death with her!

Hope ya'll enjoy the pics.
