Introducing my reptile friends & birthday present

[lv4dogs]

This is Kaos, he's one of our emperor scorpions


This is what scorpions look like under black light


Slate, our banded flat rock scorpion


Slate again, I think she's getting a little aggravated with the camera.


And last but not least... my newest addition... Beatrice the Beautiful. She's a young corn snake that my boyfriend & I picked out yesterday for my birthday present.


It's so nice having a snake around again. I know I have to practice taking good pics of my new snake with my new camera. Sorry they are a little blurry.


I am so amazed with her colors & patterns, she really is beautiful.

Beatrice is beautiful! Kaos and Slate are also but I was a little nervous looking a their pics. Can you handle them?

Although they don't sting unless they have to and they don't like to be disturbed we respect that. We don't handle them unless needed and that usually entails politely "scooping" them up in a cup or bowl. You see if they sting they usually loose their stinger & if they loose their stinger they die. The Flat Rock Scorps are known to pinch often where as the Emperors are usually a bit calmer.

I love the name Beatrice!

She looks like a reverse okeetee, do you know if she is? They grow up soooo amazing looking!

I didn't know they lost their stingers. Pretty snake.

Her pattern is Aztec, I was told her color but can not remember it. She does kind of resemble the reverse Okeetee. Although I know he never mentioned that when describing her. I am going back out there next week & will ask him again what type of aztec corn snake she is.
