Great shots. Much approval here!!! I'm sure you've tried the old sock (or any bit of cloth) in the clothing for the day, then put in favourite hide, handle until she calms down, leave for a week then handle, hand under the substrate and scoop up, etc, etc. Once you've exhausted all the old remedies I'm afraid it may just be a case of some snakes just won't and don't want to be tamed and chilled. |

Righto then!Darling Lilith our resident Drama Queen can have a week to her own devices(I think she has a full diary-Sulking/hissing/hiding/biting)then I'll see if I can book a Photo shoot with her agent
I think she's probably a bit freaked out because she just lived in a rub and didn't get handled/interaction-we will fix her |

They are all so lovely and so obviously individuals . I must admit to being drawn to Sunny.
As for Lilith, I am sure you will get there with her....it's just going to take time and patience and no giving in to her little tantrums .

you (and everyone else)is right of course-I'm sure in time Darling Lilith will realize where the food comes from-lets hope I survive her tantrums As for Sunny ,well she's just so sunny-a real cheerful snakey,similar temperament to Georgey. There is a big chunk of my heart given over to these scaly folks I'm actually very pleased that Sunny has been welcomed by O.H-usually Yellow/Red corns are a big no no;when I brought her back with a supposedly empty viv I was thinking I'd have to re-home her. Happy days with Sunny snake |
