Opened up the incubator today and thought everything looked the same as always, then a perfect little gray snake over in the corner caught my eye! We have at least two pips and one hatchling already out of the egg. The one out of the egg is a charcoal, and the two noses I can see are gray, so it...

My first ever eggs are here! Actually, my boyfriend's snake did the laying so they aren't even mine, but he's out of town so they are mine for now! We had actually stopped expecting to get eggs this year. At nearly two weeks after her post-mating shed the female, Rosalind, did not look heavy...

Got everyone out for some pictures yesterday. For once no one was in blue! Most are '08's along with 1 '06. First my Okeetees: Lancelot (from Lee Abbott) and Guinevere (from SMR) Then my boyfriend's anery motleys (both from Lee Abbott): Arthur and Molly And his blizzard (SMR): Pinky...

Well, I experienced my first escape this week, and thankfully my first recovery as well. I picked up a new (used) 32qt rack over the Thanksgiving break for my 08's to move into. Up until now they had been in a hatchling rack that I made for them. They hadn't strictly outgrown it, but quarters...

I have a California kingsnake that I obtained as a rescue that I am looking to find a new home for. The original owner purchased it as a female but I have not had it sexed myself. I will send her to you for cost of shipping (I am in Orlando, FL). She is approximately 3 years old. She has been...

It appears I will be acquiring a nonfeeder corn hatchling soon. Another grad student in my dept bred her corns this year (not sure it if was planned or not) and has given away almost all the babies. She also bred her beardies and wound up with FAR more than they expected (all 33 eggs hatched...

This is one of my boyfriend's corns, purchased from the local herp store. She was rather skinny (30" and 50g) and flighty at the time but has been eating like a champ and has calmed down nicely. She's now ~33", 130g and is eating 2 hoppers a week. I had her out for her first real photo shoot...

Back in April I picked up my first snake, a male spotted python. I totally fell in love with him and in the long run want to try my hand at breeding them. To that end, I was looking to pick up a female spotted at Daytona. Somehow I wound up with two of them (dunno how these things happen). One...

I picked up my first corn snake at Daytona this weekend. She's an Abbott's Okeetee from South Mountain Reptiles with a pretty cool pattern. It was of course difficult to pick from all the amazing corns at the show, but I keep coming back to Okeetees as my favorite. Here she is (she is quite the...

Got to take a trip to the Central Florida Zoo today and was able to get some pretty decent pics of a number of the snakes. I'm pretty excited about how they came out (since I only took my little point and shoot camera). Hope you enjoy! Crotalus durissus unicolor - Aruba rattlesnake Vipera...

Ok, one is only a suspected girl. Here's my spotted python and california king snake, both are in blue this week. I have a terrible time being able to tell when the python is in blue because it's barely visible. The king is really easy to tell though. Gucci: Ventral shot: Eugenie "Hi...

I apologize for the lack of pics, I'm going to try to get some tomorrow when I've got my camera at home. I have a california king that I took over the care of from my roommate, who had been severely neglecting her for at ~2 years. I have been taking care of her since early April and she is...

Been a little while since I took these, the salamanders are from a trip to North Carolina and the frogs were found in and around Orlando. Red Salamander (Pseudotriton ruber) Pretty sure this one is a Seepage Salamander (Desmognathus aeneus) Red Spotted Newt, red eft stage (Notophthalmus...

I don't actually own a corn yet (shhhh!). I recently rescued a california king snake (named Gucci) from my roommate who had been giving her a less-than-maintenance diet for the last two years. She's currently 23 grams and ~16 inches and just went blue for her first shed since I took over her...
