This is my boyfriend's new snake (the larger of a pair)...she's mean as can be...and it was all I could do to snap this pic of her without shaking, because she's stuck at me so many times! Anyone have a good idea for a name for this pretty little witch? He's calling her "big snake" now...which just won't do!

I like butter ball...my boyfriend doesn't! He's calling her "My Precious" right now!

BTW, any ideas how to tame her down? We're thinking we should just not handle her for a while and let her acclimate, then slowly try to get her to chill...any other proven ideas? My snakes are very easy-going, and he's never had a mean one before now. Basically we have no idea how to get her to chill! She strikes at everything and nothing! And she IS big enough the bites hurt!

Sounds like a typical female to me....nice to look at but hardly worth messing with! j/k!! anyways, maybe you could name her medusa that mythological bittch with the snake hair. I hear she wasnt any walk in the park either.
