Here's my baby...pics included

Postby Tiffany » Tue Jul 24, 2007 5:21 pm

This is Sapphira, she's a little over a year old though I have only had her almost 2 months. Can anyone tell me which kind she is? I know she may not be a she but to me this is my baby girl! lOL These where taken the day after I got her.

The stripes look IJ, but that tail strikes me as being a little long. Very nice patterns either way. The back legs also look really neat, but maybe that's just cause I don't pay much attention to them normally. Keep the pictures coming.

See, now once I was all about gettin' on the hybrid train with the last few ID questions, now I'm pretty sure this is 100% IJ. I'm not just being a trend-bucking anarchist either.

:noknow:

Thanks. I got her from naturecoastexotics and am glad I waited for her instead of the ones at the flea market I kept seeing. The ones at the flea market were alot bigger and who knows the care they got. This one eats like mad...though she does seem to favor meats more then anything else. Her tail is long, she wraps it on my arm when I hold her like a snake. Her total length is 17 inches with the tail being 7 of that.

Her tail isn't long enough to go all the way around but she does use it to hold on and keep her balance on my arm. She wraps it as much as she can.

Ah, yes, a collaboration between the cheeky Brit and the drunken delinquent. I see... :nanny:

:hehe:

Rollie will frequently use his tail to dig into my arm, or give some grip to an otherwise unsure footing.
