Here's just 1 of my other babies, he's special - has a number of kinks down his back bone hence the name & don't think he's quite all there as he has behaviours none of my other snakes have.
He's my baby though and has come on in leaps and bonds since i've had him (not scared of my corns of the same size anymore)

I ask as I used to do parrots of various species and found back in the pre forced air days we got babies hatching with problems due to fluctuating temps - we pinpointed it in the end as we got the same deformatity from different species sitting in the same spot in the incubator.
I always wonder if reps would do better in forced air with auto humidity controls as well as temps - which was the way things went with parrots my incubators were fully automatic in the end with 75 - 100% hatch rates. Must confess I've just thrown out an old ie 20 plus yrs, hovabator after seening deformations of the spine, tail etc in a clutch of baby beardeds then Uro's, did my hognose eggs in a Brinsea this time with no deformaties.
Went into triple 8 to buy a heat mat and my boyf started talking to the staff who showed us all the babies and i'm a sucker for a sob story. Since he's been out on a regular basis and has a larger floor space a couple of kinks aren't as bad, but he doesn't seem to know what his tail is doing all the time - he's more then happy to have it with belly showing. Something i haven't seen in my other snakes. He's a sweety though.

He has the blue-grey eyes (with the blue tinge showing on the supraocular scales). Even if he's not a lucy he's my baby and we've just given him a little complex bout what snake he is (but i do think he thinks he's a rattlesnake at heart sometimes).
