Working in a chain pet store has some advantages/disadvantages... Primarily, that everyone treats us like a shelter for their unwanted animals.

My newest friend... I've named him Squeezy:

He's a very beautiful snake and at the very least, his owner was actually a decent person. The other animals I've taken home and that my co-workers have taken home, well, the people are just disgusting. We get a lot of starved, injured, sick, etc animals and the answer is almost always some version of "I didn't know it would need to be fed/cleaned/etc regularly". ...oh well, that'll never change. And on the bright side, awesome snake... can't wait to get a permanent enclosure set up for him. :D
 
On a slight side note, does anyone know the time frame in which this species will reach maximum size? No concerns or anything, just idle curiosity.
 
Indeterminate growth. Large snakes grow until they die. i would guess 25 years for that nice Boa!

On another side note, has anyone ever said you look like a red headed Michael Cera?

I actually had my doctor say that... though it took him a good five minutes to try and figure out how to say it without insulting me for looking like a boy. I'm not sure what was more entertaining... the comment or him trying to reword it a half dozen times. XD

Is that you holding it? Nice save!

Yep, I had just gotten him out of the pillowcase they had him in. ^_^
 
Ahh nice snake! I'm kind of jealous :) Is it a he or a she? And about how big is it?
