I had to go with "Jack", since my kids liked it as much as Dave.
Anyway, here are some pics.

Hey Jeff,

A few times.

Any progress with the state? Just a wild thought, but what
if you offered to start (or participate in) a captive
release program for the babies???? Now that would be cool!

Ed,
..I seriously considered their Indigo program but it is too long term for me. I am looking at completely retiring in a few years and have decided to not start any more projects.

To me it looks like he is praying so we better post it on the religious sites and start a giant pilgrimage to Ed's house to see it.

Yes, I saw it. I had just stopped laughing at Bob's comment, hardly had time to take a breath when I saw your hat comment and cropped picture, then fell on the floor laughing again.

Thanks Tim! I have to admit, he was worth the hassle and wait.
How's the JCP doing? Do you know her birthdate? Since you got it
on the same day as I got Jack, I was just curious if they are close in age as well.

I didn't find out the specific day but I know she hatched in August. Also she is doing well, I've had her out to handle her quite a bit and the last two days not bites at all (I'm not saying she didn't try a couple of times but she never made contact :D)

How is your new addition? Is he adapting well?

Oh wow, she's really young. Mine was born in late June. Glad to hear she's calming down a bit, hopefully in another week or two you won't even have to dodge any strikes. Any pics yet?

I was a little worried about my little guy the first couple days.
He probably had a stressful couple days since he was shipped while his eyes were blue, so he was a bit listless. But after
he took his first mouse and shed, so far he's lived up to the Indigo reputation. Very alert and friendly. I tried to simulate a rat/turtle burrow by putting a small section of PVC pipe leading into a shoebox-size Sterilite container, and he seems to really like that. He sits in the PVC pipe with his head poking out just enough to see what's going on.

Yeah she is really young still but she eats like a champ and she seems to be adjusting very well. Hopefully she'll calm down even more she only gets defensive when one of my roommates comes up too quickly while I'm holding her and when I first pick her up, man does she hate to to piked up off the ground or a branch. No pics yet because I don't own a digital camera so I have to wait for my girlfriend to remember to bring it over, but she always seems to forget

Good to hear your's is adjusting well and enjoying his new home. You'll have to keep posting pics because it's one great looking snake.

Funny, I've often thought that about the BRB patterns in general, and that indigo scale shot is also a great example. And it's "Rorschach", knew the pronounciation (roar-shack) but had to google the spelling
