So..

Today I went to my first EVER reptile show and I LOVED it O_O but I am guessing everyone's first time is like this, lol. Anyway, I ended up buying me TWO amazing snakes :) I knew I would get a Jungle carpet for sure, and I absolutely love him and I've had him only for a few hours xD

My second snake is a Brazilian Rainbow boa :D And he is absolutely gorgeous looking O_O The internet videos and pictures don't do them justice. Their colors are amazing in person. :D

Here's some pics :O

Congrats! 9924 Beautiful snakes. That the reason they are so popular. Jungles and BRB are two of the most beautiful snakes there are. How big are they? Can't wait to see more pics.

For now I will leave them be, but when I start getting them out I will take many more pics(and figure out how big they really are lol) :D I do know my BRB is about 11 months old, and my JCP is probably a little younger. They couldn't tell me. ._. LLLReptile is irritating to say the least.

Lol Shaun you're so right. They are absolutely amazing. I don't think another snake(other than BRB lol) fits what kind of snake I want as much as they do. I might think about a coastal or an I.J. carpet next :D (another show in sept O__O)

Congrats...beautiful new additions! I have to second Shauny's warning...but add the rest of Morelia to the list. ALL Morelia are addictive (carpets, GTP's, scrubs, Boelens if you can afford them) but especially carpets because of their variety and generally good attitudes. I would be willing to bet you will get more. Irian Jaya locales are really beautiful and stay smallish, and a nice pure coastal is a stunning impressive snake. With the nice clean colors and pattern you've got going on on your new boy, I'd personally look for a jungle/diamond female for him. ;)
Also nice rainbow- they are such neat and fun snakes. I have a Peruvian rainbow and he's so friendly and curious and iridescent. They are especially awesome right after a shed. If you have any full spectrum bulbs or trust the snake enough to hold it outside, you will really really see the iridescence pop. Best of luck with both of them. :)
