A Freshly Shed Simon

SNOW!!!!
So, my little Simon shed on Monday and I decided to get some new pictures of him at feeding time last night (that's about the only time he isn't puffed up, hissing at me, and squirming around everywhere :awcrap: ). I tried to take pictures in natural light, both with and without the flash, but I still couldn't quite get an accurate representation of his color.

Chowing down on his pinkie:

This is closest to his actual color:

Cute litte curly tail:

And hiding in his tube after returning to his tub:

After I returned him to his tub, he retreated to his tube and proceeded to hiss at me for about 10 minutes. He was in the tube, in the tub with the lid on, about 2 feet from me, and it sounded like Darth Vader was hanging out in my living room! :laugh:

Enjoy!! :D
 
Man, what a cute little hoggie. I don't have a hissy snake but, can certainly appreciate what a cute sound it must be from a little one...lol.
Hope you continue to update us on his progress.
 
I'm not sure I want more than one hoggie...I've never actually been much of a fan until I fell in love with Simon's (aka 'Vader') sweet face and hissy attitude. We'll see though, there has been some talk about getting him a het. albino 'lady friend' in the somewhat near future. ;)
 
The 'lady friend' would most likely belong to Trent (like I said, I don't really want another at this point in time, but Trent was thinking about getting one), so I guess she pretty much would be his 'lady of the eve'... :rofl:
 
How cute, Hallie. And how tempting. You have some beautiful surprises.
I have herped for a pretty and smallish/youngish one of those since I was a boy. All I ever found were the melanistic phase. And giants, at that.

Thanks Eric! We supposedly have eastern hoggies here, but I've never seen one... :(
