We have two other snakes, Snowflake but she had just eaten so I didn't want to upset her and have her puke up the mouse (yuck, that's not a pretty sight). Then there is Monty, I didn't feel brave enough to handle him, he WILL bite without a doubt. When you open his draw he hisses and immediately gets in the strike position. We are trying to tame him, he is getting a little better.

Gorgeous Snakes
I love my snake, aren't they cute? Sunshine is getting huge, she should be breeding size next year. Her Mate Monty is not too far behind her, in a few years we hope to have little babies.
The girls are not at all scared of the snakes, sometimes we worry that they have too much confidence with them. We try to explain to them that they could bite even though their personality would lead you to think other wise. They are wonderful pets though, I love that the girls enjoy them. Hailey is holding Tink, she has gotten so big, when we got her she was like a little worm, Ill have to find out the pictures of her as a hatchling.
Masie is holding Casper, he was our first ball Python. He is lovely and wouldn't hurt anything, literally. We are really worried about him, believe it or not this snake hasn't eaten for a whole year. He just went off his food for some unknown reason, now when we offer him a mouse he curls up like "Ahh, its a mouse", once we left it in there for a minute or two and came back to find the mouse and Casper cuddled up together (a sight you should NEVER see, but was really cute).
