These snakes aren't for girls.

Well this girl and her pair of feisty, explosively growing yearling 'whips call bullsh*t!



Surely in your add you mean they're not for the inexperienced, male or female. That they're not a species for keepers who do not understand the physiologies of high-metabolism, actively foraging snakes, and are not prepared to do what it takes to keep them happy and growing, whether they like it or not. Right, Mr. Bernardo?

My scrawny little girl fingers worked just wonderfully for gently prying open stubborn little mouths and carefully stuffing in pinkies efficiently and with minimal stress to the snakes (when live were unavailable) until they were on board with the whole thawed dead mouse thing.

Congratulations on this season's pile of little ones by the way. Best of luck placing them in new homes!
