My new Tanimbar baby, 1 month old

Postby JR » Wed May 30, 2012 11:36 am

From the same breeder as my 2009 born Tanny, this little fellow has arrived to my house a week ago.

I'm calling him/her "Nuppu" which means bud of a flower in English. (it's a Finnish word)

Nuppu hisses a lot in his/her terrarium, and tries to bite me, but I'm not scared as I've handled BTS before. I calmly but firmly pick him/her up and let the baby calm down. I handle him/her once a day, for 5-10 minutes.

Nuppu is eating well and doesn't seem too stressed out. Nuppu is a bit skittish, but still, curious little fellow :)

Image
I love the "reticulaed python" colours on Nuppu's back... He/she was the first one to born, and the biggest one. And the most exotic colouring I've seen on a Tanny... I dunno how Nuppu will look as he/she's older, tho.


Here's a pic of some baby from Nuppu's litter, on breeders hand:
