Posted - 15/07/2012 : 03:50:40 Hi Python folk! Sorry.....forgot to introduce myself in the excitement of my joining forum. My name is Jan, and I am an animal fanatic! I have had Corns in the pat, but my love of pythons resulted in my purchasing my beautiful Mnemeth (normal) a few months ago. She has been in a Rub since purchase but now needs a viv. Knowing only what I have ready up in books, I decided to join the forum so that I can pick youze guys brains if and when need arises.....and I am soooo glad I did. Thi is a great site!  |

Posted - 16/07/2012 : 01:13:32 I have studied Folklore and stories from many countries over a number of years, during which I have met some fascinating people....one of which was a guy whose father was a very old gentleman who I was told was some sort of witchdoctor/medicine man in his village and thus a story teller to boot. Being an owner of a Siniloan at that time, I asked about snake related stories (amongst others) and was told the outline of Mnemeth's story. The name stuck in my head, but didn't seem suitable for a male Siniloan (eventually named Piemur) so, when I eventually got around to buying my new snake (I almost got a Rainbow Boa!) and watching her for some time, the name returned....and so she became Mnemeth, which seems to suit her. |

Posted - 15/07/2012 : 20:59:54 Mnemeth is pronounced "Nemeth" (silent M). Its a very old name which stems from one of the African myths about a magical snake like creature who can pass through time. Crazy, I know, but can't do "normal" names for my lovely snake |
