Armand is the larger (4 ft) tan snake, and Illerian is the smaller (3.5 ft) grey snake. They're about five and four years old respectively. I've had them since August 1998 and am absolutely in love with them.

I've had some requests for pictures of Armand and Illerian eating. So here they are. Some of these are kind of gross looking, so if you're squeamish, don't look.

Here's a beautiful picture of Illerian. Click to enlarge (it's a pretty big file so watch out). (1/2/99)

And here's Armand. I took both of these pictures with my new digital camera (Kodak DC260) which I'm really excited about. (12/25/98)

Here they are together. Aren't they cute? You can see them here in the Kodak photo quilt. (1/23/99)

I don't normally collect these things, but since I love snakes so much, my parents got me Hissy the Beanie Baby snake. (2/6/99)

Illerian's shedding her old skin. (2/18/99)

Here she is with her new skin. It's a lot brighter now that she's shed. It's also a lot softer. (2/19/99)

Here's Armand shedding. Subadult boas shed every one to two months. (2/19/99)

He's almost finished. Shedding takes about 45 min. (2/19/99)
