Very nice pictures! I also love photography, I actually just got a new Nikon 10x Zoom, 8.0 Mega Pixel digital, still working on trying to get everything to work for it though, mainly trying to resize my pics, for some reason it wont allow me to change it to 640 x 480... Oh well...

BUT Your conda looks awesome, very beautiful snake. How often are you feeding it though? Also, it looks like it's meals are kind of small for the snake, have you considered trying rat pups instead? They have a lot more nutrients in them. Keep updating pics though! Feel free to email me some also at: blue_note37@hotmail.com

Also, here is a site that I updated a few of my pictures on that I have taken with my new camera, some how I got doubles of a lot of my pictures and it wont let me delete them...

Hope you like them, you will probably be able to tell which ones I took with the new camera compared to the old.

I am kinda partial to Canons. I shoot with a Canon. But I know a lot of people who shoot with Nikon and they are good cameras too. I have a Canon 20D.

Yah I have fed it a couple rat pups. I was just feeding it the rat pinkies and stuff while I was first trying to get it to eat. I was wondering now if I should feed it like two rat pups or two rat fuzzies. I donno if there is a difference. Or else one little larger size rat. I want to feed her good but not overfeed her. I feed her once a week
I was thinkin of feeding her less once every 5 days. But I donno for sure what would be the best thing to do.

Also, what do you use to resize your photos? You said you where having trouble. Do you use a program on your computer to resize? I do everything in Adobe Photoshop CS. If you are looking for a good photo program you should check it out. Its amazing all the cool things you can do with it! Thats how I made some of those collages and things. Anyway thanks for the responce. I will post some pics of her next meal and what I feed her and see what you think? I am gonna be going back home to Iowa for two weeks. I am in Tampa, Florida right now for school. We get a 2 week break between quarters. So I am gonna just have to feed her before I leave. I wish I could take her home with me. But oh well! Talk to you later

Well, I think one rat pup every 5 days is probably the best for a baby conda. Rat pups and rat fuzzies are a lot different, some pet stores have different sizes with the same names though. A rat pup is just a little smaller than a small rat, they are maybe a little bigger than a large mouse, but rat pups have a lot more nutrients.
You do have someone taking care of your conda for those 2 weeks don't you?
I actually use a Mac, and the only photoship editor I have is Iphoto, I'm trying to find a way to change the resolution size with the program, but no luck yet... Also, just wondering by change do you go to Full Sail in Flordia?

Yah got someone to look after it while I am gone. Nah I go to The International Academy of Design and Technonlogy. I am in their Digital Photography program. Yah I think rat a rat pup every 5 days would be good too. Around here everyone calls like fuzzy rats - rat pups. So yah that would be good
I am gonna feed her again tomorrow and I will try and post some photos and stuff. Later
