First up is little Ollivander. After going out New Years Eve I cam home at half past midnight to find he'd shed. Took this New Years day while tidying up his tub:
Had a bit of an OOPS with him on the 2nd Jan when I went to feed him. He threw himself about so much he ended up half in/half out of his moist hide. I kept watch and he ate his pink on the top of it:
Eli also shed over the Xmas period and must have been hungry afterwards as he almost burst his mouse!
Last but not least is my already much missed Echo as I like to remember her (I couldn't leave her out,hope no one minds)
Never posted this for some reason,always been a fave of mine. Back in August being a beast:
A month and half ago just being her cheeky inquisitive self:

I think Ollie knows whats been said about him and he got a bit too big for his boots yesterday. Yep my first bite in ages and he managed to draw blood again much to my friends amusement!  |

@ Scaleysituation: The T-Albino Capes (Echo and Eli) were £30 each,Ollie was more expensive at £50,but they aren't as commonly bred as Capes. If you check out the A C Snakes website they have an estimated price list. I got Ollie from them.
@ Kez: I found the Capes to be no different than the corns for handling (the only difference as hatchies is they are really small and super fast!) Ollie was a nippy sod to begin with but is now also great to handle,very quick though lol!
I keep them all at a slightly higher temp than the corns,about 30/31 degrees C. Olives need a little more humidity so Ollie has a moist hide and quite a large water bowl for his size. I provide the Capes with a moist hide around shedding time. Aside from that theres no real difference in their care.
Oh,and they feel completely different to corns....almost silky |

Wow, very pretty snakes Mort and Ollivander is especially gorgeous with the iridescence going on I can see why you love that pic of little Echo, she has amazing eyes too
Are housies very different in temperament and husbandry to corns? |
