Some more fresh shed pic

Railrider1920 Sep 29, 2007 12:29 PM

Hey folks,
Ziggy shed wed night. I got some pictures yesterday. Some with flash, some without. Some were taken on white posterboard with lights pointing at her. She wouldn't sit still for anything on the table. I tried to get her under a bowl so she would calm down and hopefully pose, but no luck. She just wrapped around the bowl and hung on. Using serpentwedges (SP?), she measures out to about 40.5 inches, 3' 4.5". The ones in the tank have an aquarium type light over her.
Thanks for checking her out,
Rob

She is one good looking snake. How old is she now?

Thanks Aubrey and Tim.

I have had her for a little over a year now, maybe 1yr and 2 or 3 months. We brought her home in June of last year. She was about 12"-14" long maybe. So I'm guessing born about, what, May maybe? Even being born in the spring sounds kinda odd. Especially with everyone having litters this time of year.

So about 1 yr, 5 months.

Rob

She's not too much bigger than my CRB who is at a year and two months now, I think. Do you have any breeding plans for her?

I think so.... I'm going to try to get another one hopefully soon. I need to get her to the vet to make sure that she is in fact a she, then get a male. I'm hoping one from Dave. Then in a coupple of years, maybe get some slimies.

Rob,
..I used to have most of my babies april thru july. It is very possible that other breeders are still producing babies in may. It does seem strange that this year the wholesalers were all looking for large quantities of them in june, july and august. perhaps most breeders are like those of us on this forum producing babies later.

maybe there would be potential for breeding the ziggies together, lol. she does have some nice crescents. almost the swirl pattern going on there. my ziggie is the same way.

you can almost see it in him here, but still not the best shot.
