Snakey McSnakerton: Her Royal Plumpness
What do you think of his original name?! We kept calling her "Snakey" and it stuck. Besides, we think it's cute! As for the other part of her name, Snakey loves to cruise all over her tank and up into the branches. She often hangs out at the top, and if she's eaten recently, it's obvious because you can see her so well on the branch, basking like a king on her throne! :)
We are extremely excited today because Snakey has completed her first shed!! Last week she became very secretive, retiring to her hide for many days. We weren't surprised because her skin had started to get a blue sheen to it, indicating an eminent shed, but we were still a little worried since we haven't had her very long. However, last night Steve discovered that Snakey had been out earlier and left her shed skin rubbed off onto one of her rocks, and this morning she came out, glistening and shiny and looking absolutely gorgeous! HOORAY!!! (This picture was taken a few weeks ago, but we hope to take new ones today and show off her lovely new "suit"!) :D YAY, SNAKEY!!

I just so wish our snakes weren't the mean Copperheads.. who bite then ask questions.
The Pygmy Rattlers are honest and warn.. the King Snakes clear vermin. I can live fine with those 2..
The Copperheads... I get tired in the Summer of having to check and double check and watch where I put my hands.. and watch where the dogs nose.
