As our lovely Beagle died recently I have to post my son's pet. I know a lot of people will not like her and I have to admit I was a bit wary when he first brought her home. However I have to say she is beautiful, lovely markings, very friendly and loves to be handled and we are all very fond of her. She is not looking her best at the moment as she is starting to shed her skin. Contrary to what people might think she feels lovely when you hold her and she winds herself around you, so I say" never judge a book by it's cover"..

Beautiful creature but I am not in favor of making snakes as pet ! They may be dangerous as they are basically wild animals.... :)

Oh I'm so glad we don't have snakes in New Zealand! So glad your son has a special 'friend' as his pet. And he DOES has nice markings....very reptilian.
