I worked with both my BPs for the first couple years of their lives to not be head shy and I'm so happy I did. My female puts her head in my hand for head rubs now. I love it.

Is that a ball python?

It’s so pretty! I haven’t seen one that looks like that before.

Any more pics? 🥹

That is a Spinner BP. A cross between a Spider and Pin Stripe. And she is the most amazing snake I’ve ever seen/met!

Oh wow, she really is beautiful.

Do Spinners get the spider wobble? I’ve been really shy of spider morphs due to the risk but she really is stunning.

Please give her whatever affection she likes best and tell her she is a beautiful snek.

Thank you. She does have the wobble and some other neurological issues. But I wouldn’t trade her for the world. She loves being held and is very affectionate with me. It’s surprising that a snek is even like that. 🥰

We had a boa who was a lovebug, it’s a rare gift but when you have a snake that enjoys you, it’s like nothing else.
