New Suri

pythonis Jun 09, 2006 01:30 AM

So Im looking through the classifieds when I see the usual "Unusual Looking Surinam For Sale" ad. Well, I hardly ever look at those ads but I took one for the team and snuck a peak. I like my snakes to have a bit of pink but I like bit of variety as well. So maybe Im colorblind (and if you think I am keep it to yourself) but as soon as I looked at the pic of the snake my first words were "Holy crap!! That thing is BLUE!!" So of course I had to get it. Now I have to figure out what Im going to name it.

I know what you mean - every snake in the classifieds is either "smokin," "outstanding," or "most beautiful animal in the history of vertibrate evolution," but the one that you have pictured actually deserves a superlative or two! What a find - never seen one quite like it. I love the way the blue-grey ground color offsets those unusually reddish saddles! And an outstanding tail to boot.

I gotta say, I've been combing the classified for a month but somehow let this one slip through the cracks - otherwise, I would have picked it up myself in a heartbeat.

Congrats on the new addition!
