Talking Snakeys in our flat ... update

Just thought I'd post up a few pics of our favorite flat residents ....

Slithers doing the usual mountaineering



Slithers and J during their usual synchronised tank dancing ....



Ahem ... he prefers them backwards ...



Under the spotlight



Clint being cheeky



and ... Penelope being orange as can be

Re: Snakeys in our flat ... update

I think I got lucky when I had the choice ... I narrowed it down to the two that showed the most colour ... and Slithers showed his character straight away ... when all the others were squirming to get out of the tub Slithers was the one sitting in the middle staring up at me .... still the only one of our garters that is not phased by the cats assaults on the enclosures lol
