Creature Feature: Exotics

Is this not the cutest thing you have ever seen? A baby hedgehog! I was beside myself. Could not resist posting a couple of photos from nephew Stan’s 4th birthday party. Aside from baby hedgehog and the enormous (20+ lbs) python below, there was an angora rabbit, a skink (very cool), a tortoise, a chinchilla, some guinea pigs, giant cockroaches (gag) and various other lizards. A good time was had by all, big and small.

  2. So, there are bears, pythons and hedgehogs living in your backyard? Yeh, I think I’ll take that lunch date in the city. You weren’t afraid of 20 pounds around your neck? The hedgehog is adorable, though.

  3. How am I supposed to talk your god-daughter out of getting a python now?

    • Tell her they don’t stop at 20 lbs. That one is destined to be 35 ft long and weigh 400 pounds. I don’t think it will fit in the laundry room.
