Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Here are two pics I took today of Ruby, as you can see at well over 3ft long and 500grams she is quite a handful, but what a nice, sweet snake that loves to be handeled and has never musked or bitten, yet never refuses a meal, she seems to be a very intelligent snake, I swear she likes watching the TV.

Thanks I appreciate it Wayne,
As always its all about the animals, they are beautiful, I'm just the guy that feeds and cleans poop.
heehee, yeah don't think they have a favorite show or anything, but I swear that some snakes seem to at least enjoy all the visual stimulus, especially garters since they are more visually oriented than other snakes, yet another trait that makes them one of the best pet snakes.
