(cw: snake pics) color me thoroughly obsessed with this snake, whose name had better be Jack

scallions
a BEAUTY
scallions
you should look up the morelia boeleni python
scallions
i love when they have full white spots in them like that though... snake morphs can be so interesting
๐งก๐๐๐๐ซ๐โค๏ธ
OMG THE Morelia borleni..! A beautiful little rainbow ;;
๐งก๐๐๐๐ซ๐โค๏ธ
Snake morphs are wild, I didnโt even realize the sheer number of different patterns
๐งก๐๐๐๐ซ๐โค๏ธ
The albino morphs are gorgeous too!
scallions
yes!! they're all just so pretty ;_;
scallions
all snakes are good snakes but it's so crazy how many patterns they can be (and how expensive)
scallions
even the natural ones are wild and unique
๐งก๐๐๐๐ซ๐โค๏ธ
No kidding on the expense, I honestly had no idea how pricy ball pythons could get!
๐งก๐๐๐๐ซ๐โค๏ธ
This is a weird question, but I figure thereโs cat shows, dog shows, chicken shows, pigeon shows... thereโs gotta be like- snake shows? Like breeding competitions basically
scallions
i'm sad that it doesn't look like there really is... there's more like... hunting shows which is not what i want
scallions
i want a dude looking at a fancy snake in its enclosure nodding and making checkmarks about health and stuff
scallions
i thought i found one and then when i looked further it was about catching/killing them in competition : (((((((
scallions
or only finding "beauty queen kills and skins rattlesnakes as a hobby" noooo though rattlesnakes are assholes
scallions
on the brightside eyelash vipers are super cute
scallions
super deadly but super cute
scallions
or the speckled rattlesnake...so pretty...
๐งก๐๐๐๐ซ๐โค๏ธ
BOTH OF THOSE ARE CUTE ๐ฅบ I love eyelash vipers, I love how someone saw those spikes and went โ :> eyelashesโ
scallions
fabulous they're just so cutesy
scallions
even though they're super deadly but WHATEVER as long as they look cute doing it
scallions
i think it's so neat they can live in the same tree their entire lives
๐งก๐๐๐๐ซ๐โค๏ธ
โMy treeโ
๐งก๐๐๐๐ซ๐โค๏ธ
Also Iโm baffled someone hasnโt set up a... CFA for snakes yet?? I want snake shows
scallions
though the thought of walking and a snake just shooting out of a tree that i had no idea was there is pretty D:
scallions
right??? like there is clearly a gigantic market for morphs and snake-y pets so idk why they don't other than maybe concern about overbreeding but lbr that's sadly happening anyway most likely
scallions
but they do try to breed them responsibly so the snakes don't die/so they're nice and healthy
๐งก๐๐๐๐ซ๐โค๏ธ
Yeah the hobby clearly wants to show off these cool morphs, like. Give โem a place to do it?
scallions
yeah! my only guess is hotels/convention centers say no to mass amounts of snakes whether they're venomous or not lol
scallions
but still
scallions
just wanna see...
๐งก๐๐๐๐ซ๐โค๏ธ
Yeaaaaaaah I could see convention centers potentially taking objection to that ๐ but still itโs not like theyโd be dangerous
Transient Anus
I know there are reptile expos.
