Scott/cumbrian_eejit put me on to this one and after various emails with the vendor and a quick trip out, arrived in the madhouse on Sunday.
On paper: CB05 / rising 4 years old, stated male on A10, not microchipped yet (should be by law) and ONLY 20 MILES AWAY, GREAT!! 
In reality: possibly CB07/08?, may be male or female (as i'm certain the paperwork doesn't relate to this particular snake), about 3ft long and the size of a yearling cornsnake, in a mahooosive 4ft viv, and feeding every 3 months (i wonder why??)  the CITES A10 paperwork is out of date as it needs renewing stating the microchip number at around 15 months of age, and obviously needs microchipping still.
I just felt he needed to be rescued  although he wasn't the boyfriend for Marilyn i was looking for. but feeding 4 times a year? how can you leave a little snake to that kind of life?
he's now in the 2.5 foot viv that i was going to move Queenie into shortly. i'm hoping the smaller enclosure will help get him feeding more regularly as he must have been stressed to hell.
pics will follow shortly, i took some when moving him from transport RUB to viv but photobucket is currently offline but should be back later. |

Poor little dum, what have you called him?
Anyway- he might be Marilyn's boyfriend in a few years, she just has to wait a bit longer  |

Poor snake. Look on the bright side though.
Possibility a) It is a male and will be a boyfriend for Marilyn in the future 
OR
Possibility b) Its another female and when you get a male in future you get twice as many baby dumerils!  |

De'maggio? he was the cool baseball husband and not the dowdy writer one
Plus there's a rumour about Joe De'maggio and Frank Sinatra beating up a poor man in an hotel room because they thought he was sleeping with Marilyn- turned out they had got the wrong room number and she was actually in another room sleeping alone. 
If not, what about Malcolm. Marilyn and Malcolm sound cute together. |
