:I have a total of six snakes in my collection right now. Three have names. My Rosy is Zues, the ball is Murder the male Hogg island is Hades. I need names for a female hogg island, a male red tail and a female red tail. The male and female red tails are a breeding pair, an suggestions are welcome
:Thanks

For the female Hogg I'd favor Persephone, if they're a pair. She was the queen of the underworld, and Hades stole her from her mother, Demeter. Male/female redtails, I'm not sure. I love mythology (if you can't tell), and all (3) snakes I've named have been from Greek/Roman mythology. Perhaps Odin and Freya? (Norse) Orpheus and Eurydice are Greek. Eurydice stepped on a venomous snake and died, and Orpheus went to the underworld and nearly got her back again. Charybdis and Scylla are two "monsters", C is a whirlpool and S is a many-headed monster.

Hope that's a start!
