Damn, nobody else has any snakes? Here is my Northern Pacific Rattlesnake, Hannibal. He was a great pet. I loved to watch him eat. He got an infection in his venom gland and I had to take him out back and shoot him.
Next is Socks, or Fatass as I used to call him. He was my best buddy for 12 years. I had to have him put to sleep on October 6th, he was dying from congestive heart failure. It's still hard for me to sit at the computer and listen to the Chiefs' games now. I really miss him alot.
3rd is my Grey rat snake, Ozzy as he is finishing up a mouse. I caught him in the hallway at work a couple of years ago. The mother had it's babies in the building and security was going around killing them. I grabbed him and took him home. He is the only snake that has never bitten me, besides my rattlesnake. I think he got used to me hand feeding him since he was only a couple of days old.
Lastly is Alpine. I got her when I worked for a veteranarian 10 years ago. Her owner brought her in after backing over her with the car. She was only 4 months old at the time and her right front and left rear legs were absolutely crushed. the owner didn't have the money to try to save her, so I asked if I could have her. Needless to say, after successful surgery to repair her legs and a long recovery, she has turned out to be one beautiful "little bitch"(that's her nickname). My mom stole her from me when I bought my house. I got kicked out, but the cat stayed. Lol.
