I never hold her and as such, she is eager to display how friendly she can be.

She's a beaut. WC? If not where'd you get her? What's her natural locale?

She was actually a rescue snake. A friend bought her from a dealer who I caught the mother in South Carolina I believe. She refused to feed for him for a month or so before he gave her to me. She was a rail when I received her, she was soft and frail and about on deaths door and needed fluids and food. I assist fed her some rodent legs and she eventually took a frog scented pink and is now eating small mice. I cannot recall if I ever obtained any information about from whom he bought her from but she turned out nice.

I would say orange as well as SC isn't known for any reds from my recollection.

Awesome nonetheless!
