Bantam Corns: Possible New Mutation

Woohoo! First voluntary pinkie meal for Romano! Anole scented, but that’s okay! I really only have one holdout now, Paneer the little sunkissed girl. She will eat lizard, but hasn’t quite made the leap to lizard scented.

Excellent! I hope Paneer gets with the program.

I still don’t see how he is able to take such great pictures without assistance from someone else! :joy:. I need both hands to hold my snake and my husband with not assist! :tired_face:

Edit to add: I think he secretly owns a corn snake mini photography studio complete with an assistant……:joy::rofl:

Hahaha. Honestly, I don’t know what I’m doing with photography. I try to keep the snakes all in one “plane” to help the autofocus on my phone, and I’ve gotten adept at using the autofocus and choosing lighting that facilitates good autofocus. I’m a good one-handed snake wrangler. I’ll give myself credit for that. :slight_smile:

I almost sent you this pic last night. But it was late. :slight_smile:

She really attacked this anole-smeared pink and the last. She was 7.2g before this pink. I’ll try only light scenting next time.

And I don’t like her clutch name, so I’m changing it to Chispa, Spanish for Spark, since she’s a tiny Inferno.

7.2! So exciting! She looks great. Her name change certainly suits her :slightly_smiling_face:

23 seconds after I named her I found out it’s the name of a dating app too…

Thanks! He doesn’t look very high expression Bantam now, but that might change. They gain expression with mass. :slight_smile:
