New pic of my female red...

We were sunning yesterday. This girl is over five feet and barely 2...It is certainly looking as though she will not get "red"... o-well.

Amy,

Nice picture, she's very pretty even though she's not red! Her sides look like what you would find on some borneos. My male is 17 months old now, and is just hitting that stage where he goes a little wild(roaming the cage, hissing a lot more, messing stuff up). Did you find your girl went through something similar? I've heard that females can go through the same thing.

Take care,

Derek P.

This snake is the epitome of sweetness! If your snake is roaming around the cage and hissing at you, your temps are probably off. Bloods are fat, lazy slobs and I have never had one roaming the cage. If any of my snakes are cage roamers, or rather when they are cage roamers, it ahs been due to something I am doing wrong... either they are hungry, cage is too small or too hot.
