ADOPTED!<\/strong><\/p>\n UPDATE 4\/20\/21:<\/strong><\/p>\n “These boys are still a \u201cwork in progress\u201d They are getting better and better each day though! I really believe that because they had spent time in a home with snakes, that they KNEW, and are still a bit traumatized. None of them are aggressive, just real scared. They do all get along with each other. They all enjoy having someone talk softly to them.<\/p>\n Trig<\/em> is probably the bravest of the bunch. He will come right to the door when I am there, and I can reach in and pet him and scoop him up if I am sneaky. He will cuddle into my neck and let me kiss his adorable blaze. But be VERY careful giving treats, he will lunge at it and take a finger too if the treat is tiny (use big pieces!)<\/p>\n Brownie<\/em> is a little bit more difficult to scoop up, but once I have him, he isn\u2019t terribly squirmy, he\u2019s getting better. Brownie will touch my hand with his teeth, when I put my hand by his nose. He doesn\u2019t seek my hand, and he doesn\u2019t bite, just \u201ctastes\u201d me but I am still being cautious.<\/p>\n Curly<\/em> is the most frightened. It takes a bit to pick him up and sometimes he will scream a little. He will also calm down in a few minutes if I hold him firmly against my chest. He needs a LOT of love and attention. Neither he nor Brownie will even take a treat from my fingers yet.<\/p>\n All 3 boys are big beautiful squishes and eat a LOT! We are working on litter box training, but so far, they have not done too well. We will keep at it!”<\/p>\n Brownie<\/strong> Curly<\/strong> Trig<\/strong> These boys came to us on 4\/2\/21 from a snake food breeder who was given them as food stock, but they were too friendly.
