Lily was left with us because her owner was unable to care for her. When she arrived, she was suffering from hookworm. We have had her treated for hookworm, and she has almost tripled in size in the two months since her treatment. Previously, Lily was very small for her age, but she's now growing much more quickly. Lily will grow to a length of about 5 feet, and currently eats one hopper mouse every 1-2 weeks. Lily was adopted out to a home in Vancouver.

Kinky was our first rescue. She was found in a basement when she was between 2 and 4 months old. When found, she was seriously underweight, and now our biggest problem is keeping her from eating too much. She's a very gentle snake, and makes a wonderful pet.

Kinky's name comes from a set of bumps along her spine. This deformity is either genetic or the result of incubation at too high a temperature. She's the first snake that we rescued, and we adopted her ourselves as a pet. Kinky is the mascot for Snake in the Grass.
