Hi
my name is Xilonen........Zi ..What? Xilonen is the given name to the
female God of the corn for the Mexica culture in central Mexico. I am a
cute little baby Corn Snake. My kind is the one called Albino or Red
Bolded Rat Snake. As you can see my colors varies between red, orange,
yellow and white. I have red rounded eyes. I am 100 cm long! Big girl! I
arrived home when I was just a four months old. I was about 27 cm long
and weight 20g. I got a nice house that Pili and Micke quickly and
carefully set for me with green plants I can climb on, because I love to
climb. I got natural bark, which is my favorite place to hide from Pili.
I am native to the southeastern region of USA (I'm born Swedish). I have
no fangs = no poison, but this does not means that I can't
bite, because I do... I kill my pray by constriction. This means that my
pray will die by suffocation. I eat mice, but if I were in the wild I
would also eat lizards, birds and even some small eggs. Shedding
(changing skin) will happen all my life but, since I am a juvenile snake
I do it every three or four weeks and this will be until I have reach my
adult size, then it will be less and less. Even if I am a small snake I
count with more than 150 pair of ribs and pure muscles to protect my
vital organs. I like to hide and play with Pili's hair!
