Never believed people when they said keeping snakes was an addictive hobby.....until i got my first Corn a year ago!
Loki (Carolina) has more then doubled in size since then and completely changed colour! A few months later, Isis (Snow) joined us. She's a real gentle giant. A month after that i bought home Chaos, a stunning Mexican Black king, apparently a biter but has never shown any aggression towards me. Last month i bought a new baby home, Sobek, a normal Royal Python. Hubby said 'thats it, no more snakes'.....so today i bought home a gorgeous, tiny, Reverse Okeetee Corn! Feisty little so and so, bit me 3 times just trying to put him in his faun!
Unfortunately thats all we have room for now  but i'm sure i can juggle the furniture around a bit!
Will post some pics of the newbie (not named as yet) as soon as the weeks quarantine is over!

| Good work!!It's very addictive isn't it!! I started off with a litle amel corn Lola, closely followed by another ghost motley- Harry. Then followed calypso and marley the creamsicle and anery. Next I got into my head I wanted a royal but to convince my hubby his brother had to regime marley but I got Laila out of it. Then HE decided we should have more royals. So lailas fella followed, and another royal yesterday oh not getting the little peppa I squeezed in too |

| Another snake to add to the collection, lol. They look pretty cool, but I'm reading up on them ASAP as I know their care is similar to a corn but not the same. I like to know what I'm getting before I get it so will decide if I know enough tomorrow. |

| I have changed my mind, not on the snake but when I can get him. I'm going away in a few weeks so I'm going to put it off until I get back. I told the guy selling him that if its still available when I get back I'll take him. Its a reluctant decision but I think its the right one to make. |
