    Pets!
    10 pathogens detected
    Matt and I went down to Boise on Sunday afternoon (a 7h, 45m drive) to look at the snakes that this breeder had. We stayed Sunday night at a motel, and hung out in beautiful Boise all morning before meeting him. We ate breakfat, saw the capitol, went to the Julia Davis Park, walked though the rose garden, and hung out at the zoo. Man, Boise is the coolest city! One might think, "Hmm. Idaho? Probably not that special." But Boise is one of the best planned cities I've been to, and it was really easy to get around.

    Anyway, we had gone to see this breeder because I had conversed with him via email for about a month now, and had told him that we were interested in a docile and friendly adult corn. He said he had a few, so we went to see them.

    You may have wondered why is says "Pets" (plural)on the title. Well, we went to get one snake, but there was this breeding pair that were SO calm and friendly, but he didn't want to sell them apart, so we bought both! A breeding pair? Yes, Matt and I may now be interested in someday breeding corn snakes.

    So, I am now sitting on the couch watching our new snakes become acclimated to their enclosures. They are so big and gorgeous!!


    This is the male.



    This is the female.

    Any suggestions on names?

    The world is going crazy, but I kind of like it!

    I got nothing on the snakes--pretty colors--but I got nothing.

    Boise, however, I heard was great!

    How about calling the albino male "Spooky," and the female "Waltzing Matilda." If you are not convinced, I offer you this argument: C'mon! Followed closely by its corollary, "Eh?"

    How about "Oro" and "Maisy"? Thanks for coming by my place. Cool place you got here.

    Corn snakes aren't poisonous. No worries.

    Hi, i was flipping through blogs when yours caught my notice. Your snakes are beautiful! We have a corn snake named dot. (Yes, real original.) Her mate spot died a few months back and we are hoping to get her a new mate. Good luck with them, they are great pets!
