I must agree with Justin and Natalie.... best to quarantine the newcomer for a while.

Re: YAY!!! i found my first snake

For some reason, I'm not convinced it's a male. From experience, males don't eat right out of brumation.

Re: YAY!!! i found my first snake

I am sorry but I am leaning more towards a female. It's very big and hefty, it's already eating, and the tail isnt as quite as fat (from what I can see) as a usual male sirtalis. Very pretty snake though, looks like dark chocolate!
