The Sassy Snakes

20/10/2024

I know a lot of you have been waiting patiently for me to post more about the Aziracrow babies, and they’re finally ready to start looking for new homes! I can’t believe how amazing they all are, and it’s so tempting to just holdback all of them. But space is limited and we want to spread the joy of snakes! Most of them are up on our MorphMarket page.

Aziraphale is a lavender snow, and Crowley is a hypermel who is het for lavender snow. Lavender snow is an interesting morph, as it’s a combination of albino (T-), lavender (T+), and hymermelanism. And we got just about perfect odds, 50% are presenting as hypermels and 50% are presenting as lavender snows. Although, two of the lav snow babies look more like Aziraphale, and the other two appear to be more of a hypermel lavdener. It’s tempting to holdback all of them, but I can’t simply keep them all to myself.

These little guys are so hard to take pictures of.

I’m so glad Shadwell appears to be making friends with the other garter boys 🥹.

In other news, our new vet came over yesterday and checked in all of our snakes. Everyone got a clean bill of health, hooray!! I was also very happy I was able to find an exotic vet willing to do a heard exam at our home. Our prior vet had changed jobs and no longer in the area, so I felt very fortunate to find an exotic vet with availability.

And we’re still on egg watch! They should be hatching any day now!!

Mlem! Az**el is currently getting ready for brumation, which means she doesn’t get anymore meals until next spring. She’s still looking at me like she expects

Here's the painting of one of the holdbacks from Az**el and Isaac's clutch. I really need to do more paintings of my snakes in general!

Finally finished my 4th submission for the contest, with nearly an hour to spare! I’ll post the others later, but this one I was super excited for. I really want to paint more snakes. I had originally thought about doing a compilation painting of all of the snake babies from Az**el and Isaac (go see them over on my snake page !) but I knew I wouldn’t have the time. So instead I decided on one of the holdbacks since I got a really cool photo of her.

Sorry for the lack of posting, the day job is getting into the second busy season of the year on top of taking care of these little cuties!! I did not realize that taking pics of baby snakes was going to be so difficult! This is my first clutch from Az**el (het hypermel and albino) and Isaac (blizzard). There are 3 normal het hypermel and albino, 3 albino het hypermel, and 2 hypermel het albino. I am holding back 3 of the clutch (not included in prior numbers nor in photos to not cause confusion). I need to set aside some time to post these on Morph market, I’m very nervous about this part! They’re all doing really well, eating f/t pinkies and most of them have shed twice. Also, if you've been following me you might remember that Az**el had decided to have another clutch this summer, and since I didn’t pair her with Isaac most of them were slugs, except for two!! They should be hatching this week!! So while I wait for the two eggs to hatch, these little cuties are looking for some plane tickets.

I can’t believe it’s already been over a year since Leslie arrived. Look how big he has grown!

10/08/2022

I’m keeping this one. His name is Dot! He may have a couple of holdback sisters named Yakko and Wakko (not pictured).

Welcome to the world!! It can take another day before they start to fully come out of their eggs, and it may be another day before the rest start hatching. But I’m still so excited!!
