no kidding... the problem is male or female when you have a snake named Dixie for years.... it kinda sticks no matter what.

lol shoot try it, try calling Babe something other than Babe or Des..... it just doesnt work trust me i know

you may ask, and i will tell you i honestly dont know.

for the longest time i always called him an Oakatee figuring that was another name for "normal" but i dont know the thing that throws me off is that he has no black outlines in his markings

Looking good!!! Try an inverted bowl weighted down to hold him for several minutes. Then when you gently lift off the bowl you might be able to get a few pics before he decides to take off exploring.

i did try using a sweater box, only i dont think i left him in there long enough he had himself pressed up against all sides so when i lifted it up off he literally "fell out" it was allmost like i poured him out of a cut lol as odd as that sounds

ive always want to get into photography but never have, so i have to tell you my camera is nothing special jus a Cannon Powershot A590 nothing more than a point and shoot digital camera.

i have found however that when taking those close up head shots to put it into "easy" mode otherwise it will never focus that close
