This is my little buddy. He is the absolute most mellow BCI I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Unfortunately he had a bad shed today, so i had to bathe him and massage off the skin. He let me do anything I wanted, didnt even flinch with the eyecaps. Im surprised he has a bad shed, the basement is pretty humid, I sweat when I go down there. Go figure.
FYI he was born March 14th '02
He's gonna make an awesome back up breeder to his dad.

Samson is about 7.5' and right at 20 pounds, he eats a small rabbit every 7 - 10 days. He is the garbage disposal in the house, he once put down 3 1.5 pound rabbits in 1 week. Thats definately not his normal feeding schedule though.

Valentino is such a doll. And believe it or not Samson was an unwanted adoption.

Thanks Again.
Samson will be breeding his mom again this year (gave her this year off) So hopefully will get a couple more with his color pattern. He was the only one with this coloration out of a clutch of 31. So I knew instantly he was being held back. :D
He has an incredible feeding response, very agressive. He will eat in a full shed. He instantly knows when there is food or when its my hand. Food never hits the bottom of the cage, regardless of if he is sleeping or cruising the cage. I hate to pick favorites, cuz i love all of mine in their own way, but if i had to pick 1 Valentino would be it.

If I take him into one of my herp society meeting I never get to see him all night, because everyone wants to hold him. He is a total chick magnet (human chicks that is)
