    Rosie's quite a beaut too. I would love to see more photos of your snakes.
    Sammy is the brown & cream Cali Kingsnake. I've seen a few brown & creams but usually with more brown than cream. I just loved the way Sammy was so affectionate.

    Rosie is a lovely baby Python. She has a lot of high gold colouring and I'm wondering if she's het for something. Ironically we only got Rosie yesterday, take her home and discover we've had a tragedy. So far little Rosie seems to be settling in. She's spent all evening in her little cave but is out and wandering about her viv exploring at the moment.

    Hard to believe Rosie fits in the palm of my husband's hand with loads of room to spare. However, she'll grow up to be bigger than these two. Bobby is the large Python coiled round my right arm. Byron is on my left arm. I've had Byron since he was the same size as Rosie and he is very tame and friendly. He's a character too - he's the only snake I've got who gives me a kiss every time I take him out. He also has a liking for drinking coffee as I found out one day when I was drinking a luke-warm cup of coffee and Byron was trying to force his way between my lips and the cup!!! I've got a pic somewhere of him stretching out towards my coffee cup. Of course, we don't let him drink it. Bobby the one on my right arm (the big one) was a rescue who very nearly died due to serious neglect before we got him from the rescue people. He's fine now but still a little shy. We also have a rescue Cornsnake who was badly burned at one time. He's gorgeous (and another character). He has bad scarring all down one side through coiling round an unguarded lightbulb which wasn't even on a thermostat. The previous "owners" sold him and his tank (which went straight in the rubbish as it was so filthy and dangerous) for £10 beer money ($20).

    I'll put up another thread tomorrow with my snakes on so you can see them. We also have 10 cats (some of them are rescues too) and a rescue German Shepherd who is camera shy and I haven't been able to take one decent photo of her since we got her 7 years ago

    I guess I should have used better punctuation in that first sentence Python. I realized Sammy was the brown and cream Kingsnake. Rosie is a beautiful ball python, it is amazing seeing how small they start and just how large they can get.
    Bobby and Byron have gorgeous markings and look very happy with mum! I look forward to seeing more of your wonderful babies.
    Don't think of it as getting hot flashes. Think of it as your inner child playing with matches
