So, after months of research and a month of fixing temp problems I finally got my first snake today!! I went to the local herp show in Arlington and picked up a beautiful 2.5 month old male het for albino bci. He's going to shed in a couple days, then he gets fed, then I'll get some pics of him. Until then he's just camping out in his new tank.

Alright, I had to change out his water today, so I managed to snap a couple pics. I didn't want to mess with him too much as it is only his second day here and he's going into shed. So, here you go:

Here's his cage...he's under the branch on the left:

I managed to get a couple more shots, but they were all blurry, so this will have to suffice for now :lol:
