New Pics - Blizzard

here's a couple new pics of Blizzard. i found him ontop of the igloo all curled up ontop of himself it was so cute I had to get a pic. and he loves to be curled up inside his towel. in the second pic he is on my lap while i'm watching tv in the living room. he sat there with me for about 3 hours straight before he poked his head out like that. i'm glad he has calmed down enough with handling (he used to be a little jumpy but he was a little guy then) i love having him just sit with me. i hope that Bullet will be the same when when he grows up. right now he just wants to go everywhere.




sorry about the pics being a little large.

Beautiful snow you got there. Looks a lot like my female with the lime green blotches. My Male snow has pinkish blotches.

You mean there's hope for my jumpy Jack? He still gets serious hooky-jigs when I touch him...he recoils like a human would from something they didn't want to touch...*ewww! It's touching me! gross!*

Blizzard sure is a beauty! How big is he,and how old?

Juliane,sure there's hope for Jack! Try this: everytime you want to pick him up,put your flat hand over him,touching him slightly.Keep that position for about ten seconds or so;this should calm him down.That way I teached my Sinaloan girl not to be jumpy anymore,and it worked!

Great Picks DM! I love the one with him peeking out of the towel!

Juliane just be patient and remember that baby snakes are high on the dinner menu of every thing that comes across them! They HAVE to be skittish to survive in the wild.
Jacky I'm glad your technique worked for you but coming at a nervous snake from above may not be the best way to settle them down. That is where much of their danger in the wild would come from, specifically birds of prey as well as other predators. It's normally better to come at them from the side and on their level.

Merlin you are right,never thought about it that way.Well,I got that advice from a German forum,where I quit my membership a while ago!
But doesn't the snake get used to the hand and knows that it also means shelter?

Eventually they learn that the hand is not a threat. It's just a matter of getting to that point.
