Meet Tyrone!!

Today I'm happy to announce our family has grown by one (1) snake! :D This is Tyrone AKA Toblerone -- a cute lil juvie ball python! He's only about a year old, a little over 2ft long, and currently in shed.

We got him at a local reptile expo, and he's our first snake! I'm so excited! When I held him at the expo, even through all the loud and stressful stuff happening, and the fact that he was in shed, he was super chill and curled up in my hand just fine. I managed to handle him out of the container at home, too, while transporting to the new tank. So I look forward to many snake cuddles and chill times with Tyrone!

He's very sweet, and I'm very excited and nervous to take care of this baby. Look at his puppy face!

I also got this very cool enamel pin, and a pinback button with an isopod drawn on it.

All in all a very good expo time, even tho I had to cut it short because it was a rough heatwave day. Day 7 of heatwave, in fact. Ooof.
