Jiriki

A friend has a Burmese Ball Python, called Jiriki. Often when I visit he’s hiding in his little cave, so when he popped out I snapped a few photos. Not that clear, with it being through the glass of the aquarium and all.

I’ll get some pictures of him when I’m over there some time and he’s out.

Very docile snake, maybe 6' long, with beautiful markings.

Once when his wife’s mother was over, Jiriki stayed at my place for a month. (Irrational fear of snakes and all.) Pretty cool having him for a while, and really neat to have a snake curled up asleep on my lap. It’s not like you’ll ever have the warm bond you’ll have with a cat or a dog, but there is still something pretty amazing about getting to interact with him.
