My Caulker Cay! (Pic heavy)

[atomicgrrl]

Here's my little girl! She's an 04' straight from Rio Bravo. I love her to death!


First day she arrived! I've had her for 3 years now.


Shortly after I first got her. This was her tank at the time... a 10 gallon, look at her being so small and a year old.






She actually does fit her entire body in there. I don't know if she still can though.


Still a little thing...






Her cage now!


More recent.










And today... eating a big rat! It was marked in the bag as a small rat but is definitely larger than any small rat I've ever got before, almost a medium?






A video if you care to see (since I know none of you have ever witnessed a snake eat before) and am I the only one that feeds their snake in a bathtub?

Hope you guys liked! I've never shared my favorite little girl here so I figured it was about freaking time!

Yep, that looks like RioBravo material. Nice photos yo!

[froglegs]

Well your right ! It is about freaking time! She is beautiful! Nice pics too! You might be the only one who does bathtub feedings...lol! Most likely not though! Great videos too! Thanks for sharing those! She's so small and cute!

very good pics...i hope my new snakes cage will be as neat as yours when im done with decorating...but i just dont know if my decorating skills are as good as yers

Snake necklace!



And thanks everyone! Yeah I dig the bathtub feeding because... well for once its easier to clean, two its more space than a rubbermaid and easier to pick her back up... and those are my main reasons I guess.

I actually want to do more with her tank. She's more arboreal than a lot of other boas so I really would like to put more branches or things to climb on... in my leo tank I have a little wooden birdhouse I have velcroed to the side of his tank with a little ladder leading up to it that he LOVES. I should do something like that with her too. Although she NEVER hides... she's always out!

[ssjsmits]

I know a lot of people that feed in the bathtub. I have a few boas that never hide either. They are always chillin out in the open. She looks a lot bigger now that I see her on you.

yeah...i was thinkin the first pics where older...i have seen em before... she has definitely gained some weight...i mean the snake atomic dont go shovin fingers down yer throat j/k j/k

so when am i gonna see u on the cover of cosmo lil miss aspiring model?

[danktat]

Great shots and boa. How recent is the "necklace" shot? (just looking for a size reference on a three year old)

[atomicgrrl]

That picture was taken on January 13th. And she's going on 4, if she isn't already.


LOL I wish I was a model... it'd be a more legitimate job than I have now (Applebees uhhhg) haha!

[Stigma]
