The Hamblins welcome a new addition to their home
















Yesterday was the Reptile Depot in Salt Lake and Jake purchased a new snake. Her name is Bellatrix, after Bellatrix Lestrange of Harry Potter. She weighs in at a meager 58 grams and is about 12 inches long. She is quite the defensive little girl. She's still pretty sketchy, but she has already taken to Salazar and Merope; and as you can see from the pictures Salazar and Merope are quite fond of her as well. Although, we have to watch out when Salazar cuddles with her he tends to cuddle on TOP of her rather than around her as Merope does. We did buy a bigger hide for Salazar and Merope yesterday, but Salazar is determined to stay in his super small hide. He is so adorable. The last picture in this set is Salazar going into the new hide with the other two. So all three of the snakes are in there. What a happy family!
