Lol... Rango just wait til he's a big boy, best she handle him alot as he grows cause pretty soon she'll have good reason to be a little worried...lol... Thanks for sharing..
 
Ha ha yeah she wont touch my Darwin because he is a little bigger.. I'm hopping her confidence will grow with her snake :D can't wait till my little man learns what gentle means and see if he likes them :)
 
Here is a Pic of my wife ( MRS_DAVO) holding our first snake we ever had ( Pink )....
He was her favourite....

Someone else is the proud owner of this snake now, & i don't think that Paula has ever forgiven me for moving it on.
It is the only snake that she has ever been totally confident with.

Cheers

Here's a mate who relocates/ rehabs local snakes, among other things. I can't show her face because she's also a dentist:)! And NO...I haven't started wearing black nail polish!

You're really pretty Icarus (I hope I'm allowed to say that...)
Those Burms always look like such porkers. Was it heavy?

thanks saximus! an ego boost never goes astray. yeah she was very heavy! she weighed about 45 kilos, and considering i was about 55 kilos when that photo was taken, it was a mission to hold her up. but i think the adrenaline of being in contact with such a beautiful snake helped
 
Firepac it is a bit hard to see from those pics, but is that a handfull of Scrubbies?
If so that is one guttsy gal.

Cheers

great pic firepac, always enjoy seeing the dads teach their kids how to handle snakes. My daughter was always great with customers when she tagged along with me on snake calls, she would spend hours reading anything she could find on snakes so she could answer the 500 questions they ask with confidence and correct answers. She was only 9 years old!!! It was costing me a small fortune paying her $5 per spotting fee, especially when she would spot the same snake 10 times in different locations of the customers backyard!!! lol
