Proud of our little newbie, she's finally coming out of her shell after we rescued her a few weeks ago. Happy for me to sit by her viv and take a few snaps today, even coming up to say hello! only got a little upset by the shadow of my oh walking past, but she quickly calmed. We hardly saw her at all the first couple of weeks.
She's still very very jumpy when handling but she calms a bit after 5 mins or so.
She's a fantastic eater and we've moved her up to smalls now.
She come to us with the name Sydney ... we end up calling her Syd most of the time. We're trying to think of more names but the longer we leave it the more likely it is she'll stay a Syd lol.
Hope you enjoy the pics as much as I enjoyed taking them. 
H-Hello ...
I love the above pic, she looks like i've just told her off or something, so sad! Awww.
You my friend?
Imma go for drink now ...
I think it's here ..
Hiiiiiiiiiii!
No look at me ....
I found new hide!
Think I prefer this one ...

It is irresponsible, they did it when we went to get her and I couldn't wait to get her out of there. 
Awwwww she come out for us today - I opened the viv door and she come zooming over, come out the viv on her own too! She jumped massivly when I picked her up but she's getting better |

Oh poor thing  We've got young kids, but they are under very strict supervision at all times, and would be sent away immediately if they poked/prodded. That's so irresponsible of the parents
Our little Corno is getting so much more confident as well now, she comes out most evenings to watch us, still slightly flinchy if someone goes past too quickly, but great at being handled and we've only had her 3 weeks, we're all besotted with her! |

Poor baby. I guess handling her gently as you are is the only way. Some snakes are naturally nervous and do flinch, but all the same I hope she settles. |

Leaving one in there do you mean or holding her with it?
She's got no problem with our presence any more, she comes out now when we're in the room and doesn't zoom off and is ok when viv door is opened. Just when she's being held she jumps, say every time you have have to move you hand to support a bit of her, she jumps again when touched.
I think it's as in her last home she was poked and prodded by young kids, quite hard and suddenly, and she just used to let it happen but flinch and shy away.
She's got such a lovely nature. Our kingsnake, although tamed a great amount, if you did that to him, he'd have your face off lol. She just sits there and flinches. |

Good news Toki! Have you thought of using the 'sock trick' to calm her even more? |

Awww thanks all!
Hopefully she'll be as calm as Red is soon . Can't wait to see Syd all fully grown, she will indeed be a pretty girl. She's an Ultra. |
