Hi everyone! Boy, do I miss these forums.. I scrolled a bit and realized I've got about
6 good hours of just catching up to do.. probably more! lol
I'm still not online, I'm over at my dad's right now just checking my email and stuff.. my
motherboard was fried, I did get a new one, new hard drive, etc... then my modem wouldn't
work, so I got a new one but know there's a problem with the IRQ or something... seeing as
how I'm not too pc-savy, I'm just waiting for some help from dear old dad to fix it..
eventually I will be back online! Promise!

Hope all is well with everyone, I did get a new job doing reception work.. doesn't pay all
that great but heck, it's a job. Still keeping my eyes and ears open for something else of course.
All the snakies are doing great... the
ATB from Jules still has not bitten me (yay!) All
the corns are fine, just eating and sleeping doing what snakes do best. The boas are doing
good, many of them are rapidly gaining weight and growing.. I couldn't be happier about
all that. (now... just need to get my salmon baby from Sprinter and the house will be complete! hee!)
I took Autumn out for an inspection... (I'd been leaving her alone since Nov. thinknig she
was gravid, and she hasn't been fed much..) well I am 99% sure she is NOT gravid. I
probably removed the male too soon, but it could be any one of a number of things.. oh well!
It was a first try and I wasn't expecting all that much... just means I know better for this
coming season. I had been bulking her up quite a bit before trying to breed her.. and it turns
out she decided to put all that food-energy into making herself bigger!! I measured her
this weekend and from tip to tail she is a whopping 7'5"!! That means she grew just over
a foot in the past 2 years.. not bad for an elderly snake! (she's 13 this year)

here she is on the ground... coming towards me. (she wouldn't stay, she kept coming back to me)
and here she is climbing around getting some exercise.. big girl!!
Luckily she's just as tame as she was before I tried to breed her... she's my favorite even
tho she's just "common". [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
Here is an updated pic of me holding Kelly (lemondrop) the albino
BCI... she's not that
used to being held (either is the male) but they're getting used to it I think...
She's not as long as Autumn, but weighs in at 23lbs!
Well that's it from me for now... back to the grind I go.. hope to be back regularly soon tho!
Take care and happy herpin!

ps. please say if my pics showed up.. I'm posting directlly from my dad's where the server is
so I can't see them on this PC..
