Snake with no eyes!

She's really pretty, and you made such a nice home for her! She's so lucky!

More pictures for anyone interested! This is her set up for now until she gets used to everything, then I'll be adding live plants+isopods.

I don't know anything abaout snakes but, that is such a pretty snake!

It's great that you are giving her a second chance. Many people seem to think that "imperfection" is a handicap. I have a cat that was born without eyes. Mister Magoo has never been able to see, so the lack of sight is totally normal for him.

I was seriously taken aback when one of my friends said she would have had him put down. Until I point it out, it's not unusual for people NOT to realize he can't see. He navigates his world by sound, smell and memory, and it's a happy "Goo" world.

It's unlikely he would have survived long in the backyard where he was born, but coyotes there stalked sighted cats, too. With a little human intervention, he's already had 10 birthdays.

Best wishes for your new, lovely snake; may she have plenty of days ahead of her!

Well, she's a bit confused but she's got the spirit!

I don't think snakes can see well anyway, even with eyes they mostly navigate by their other senses

Well, she's a bit confused but she's got the spirit!

She can do it!!!! I've always wanted to look after a disabled or rescue animal, it must be so rewarding seeing how happy she is
