This is our corn snake, "Colonel" (get it?) eating his weekly mouse.
Snakes have to eat too, you know.

We kept a Burmese for many years; he ate only live chickens. Amazing how they drop that jaw!

Burmese are monsters. I like them and I think they are beautiful, but I think people should have special licenses in order to own them. Apparently there's a breeding population in the Everglades, now.

He was beautiful; but died of liver failure at 12 feet. The vet says that is is fairly common that they reach that capacity and croak. He was placid and social, always. Except toward the iguanas.
