Still working on getting back into tortoises... But in the meantime, here's pictures of the current zoo!
First up: Man Ray, my little beardie boy. Here he is in a rare good mood...
Here's a shot of his current enclosure. You can see him brooding on the far right, complete with black beard... Poor guy's just been a bundle of nerves and hormones since last fall, when he discovered girls exist!
Second we have Blossom. Little female beardie with a total Napoleon complex. She's incredibly feisty. Sort of a refreshing change from the other two beardies, who are the typical "so tame it's ridiculous"...
Buttercup... A big girl, but so docile and unobtrusive it's insane! A good example of the term "Gentle Giant"...
Her enclosure...
On to the snakes! Here's Mallie, my Anery corn snake, and first ever reptile. This pic is from about a month ago. She had just finished eating literally out of my hands (since her feeding bin had been commandeered and repurposed into a hatchling tub).
Toby, my little San Diego Gopher snake...
I really need to get an updated full-body pic of him. He's grown so much since this photo, taken last November...
Then are the two new additions, two male Corn Snake hatchlings. One is an Amel ("albino") and the other is a Snow. They're both still nameless right now...
Here's the snow:
As for the Amel... The only pic I have of him right now is a feeding pic, and I'm not interested in the ridiculously "big deal" snake feeding pics seem to cause around here... So instead I'll hotlink it.
To the incredibly squeamish: Don't look if you don't want to see the back half of a pre-killed pinky mouse.
