I've been keeping reptiles for three years and in that time I learned that almost every day a reptile tries to give you a heart attack. Yesterday I had a kingsnake get lose and it ended up on my computer desk and as I reached over to get a piece of paper and it struck and bit me from behind my computer.But today........I walked into my reptile/computer room and looked into my peach phase het. Albino Dwarf female fattailed gecko's cage and there i saw one of my female albino California kingsnakes coiled around what i thought was my geckos head....My first thought was my favorite gecko is dead; now is a good time i mention she has one of those tails that looks EXACTLEY like her head....well anyways i picked up the kingsnake and uncoiled her and out fell my geckos tail I was sooooooo RELEIVED to see it was her tail not her head...so i turned over her favorite hide box and there she was scared to death. So now my baby girl is in a completely differnet cage and it has a top and it is locked...as for the king. she has 4 locks and 8 bungie cords on her cage.

What a Day

Happy Herping
