Time for Shai-Hulud to eat, so sister-in-law brought a mouse home for him. (We're not feeding him the wild ones, but don't tell them.) It took him almost five full minutes to decide it was time to "hug" his dinner. That mouse was walking along his spine and he didn't seem to care! I was afraid he thought this was his new roommate.

I truly am glad I finally got the snake I had wanted for 30+ years. He's a blessing. And sometimes puts on dramatic performances.
