Connor caught a California king snake on Halloween. It's young, only about 12 inches long (very slender). We named it and asked to keep it. So we now have a 10 gallon 'critter terrarium' with a heating pad under it and spend $11 on 6 frozen mice pinkies (now I know why my dad raised them. that's a rip-off!)
I was getting ready to see if we could find a place that sells live pinkies as I didn't know if it would eat a frozen one, being wild and uses to live prey. But it started eating it right away. I'll check it in a bit. It seemed to maybe be having problems getting it in it's mouth well. it has such a small head.
We're headed to shell beach today with Dynasty. It's a bit chill today. it's been very cloudt the past couple days and rained at night. Maybe we're at the beginning of the Rainy Season here! I loved looking at the clouds today and all their bubbly, swirliness. I like clouds and have missed them lately.
I plan on a light school week. Though Gavin will be doing his Physics test Monday.

bubbly swirliness? are you sure you've not been taking too much migraine medicine? keeter (not Lucy)in the bubbly, swirly clouds with migraine medicine.
If one of my kids came home with a snake, I would freak and run the other way! *rofl* ... Julie = big WIMP!
I like snakes a lot, but I have always balked at any pet that needs to be fed live mice. *LOL!*
Mama Monkey you could always feed frozen mice.. thawed of course.
I think Dad loves you're calling him about the snake. It also gave him someone else to tell about his rescuing the DeKay Brown Snakes.
Oh, you're SUCH a good mom!! The thought of mice-sicles makes me feel all woozy.
