Hi all, I'm here to introduce myself (and my snake) to the forum. I tend to lurk a lot more than I post, so don't expect to hear much from me. But I will be around.
Now for the introduction you care about: my snake Ness! I bought him from a classified ad in June last year. The seller couldn't tell me much about him, including his sex or hatching date (he said a few months prior I think?). He said he was pretty sure it's male so that's how I've referred to him myself. I guess when I finally get him sexed I should be ready with a new name if it turns out that way.
So I guess Ness is approaching a year now. He's super active and an aggressive eater. He usually hides behind his water dish (on the cool side) during the day. About 5 or 6 he comes out and cruises all around his tank the rest of the evening. He loves to tunnel through the aspen and climb on his branch. He also loves to squeeze himself into the lip of the tank under the screen top. From there he stretches out vertically and pushes against the screen, sometimes a little too far and he falls! He's good with handling, but sometimes I can't tell if he's trying to explore or just get away from me!
And now, what you've all been waiting for: pictures! Like I said before I know virtually nothing about him. So I included a bottom shot in case you folks notice any signs of specific morph characteristics. But I'm pretty sure he's just straight normal.
