Well hello everyone. I normally hang out in the "off topic" area of the forum but thought i would drop in to say hello to the snake people. I just got a ball python and corn snake this past week. The reason i got 2 basically back to back was the corn snake was a craigs list rescue and was an early birthday gift for my 6 year old son and the ball python needed to be rehomed because they owners got a puppy and did not feel their 3 balls were getting enough attention.
I say the corn was a rescue because there was an ad for a free corn snake and I went to go get it, it had no water and no source of heat. Seemed like some college student just bought a "cool pet". It had escaped its tank and the owners girlfriend refused to come back over until the snake was gone.
Like I said the corn snake was a gift for my son. He named him "George" after "Curious George". We often call him Curious George though because he favorite think to do is climb the wall and then squeeze himself between the rim of the tank and the screen lid and try to find a way out. It is hard to explain what he does, but I hope you understand.
The ball pythons names is "littlefoot". That was the name he had when I got him and I think I quite like the name, so it stayed. Plus I will enjoy introducing "littlefoot" once he is full grown.
Can you believe I have had snakes less then a week and am already thinking of breeding? LOL
Well it is getting late and I need to head to bed. Just thought i should introduce myself in this section. I will try to remember to post some pictures some time on Wednesday.
