...but the last one for a few months and then after that one we're done for a while. We actually bought one of his brothers on Saturday and when we got him home and were holding him outside we were able to see that he had about 4 or 5 blisters so we took him back to the reptile expo today to ask the breeder who sold him to us if he knew what they were and he said they were probably water blisters & that he probably tipped his bowl over in his cage at home or something - he ended up being the only one of 4 that had them but the guy told us to pick out a different one if we wanted. So we ended up with Rhino - (name due to his black nose - darker than his brothers & and sister).

Thanks! :) I'm excited that we got him - we had been having a difficult time finding a Dumeril's boa in the area so when we saw that guy had some my boyfriend decided that he had to have him.lol. The last snake we're wanting to get (at the moment) is an Irian Jaya Carpet - but I'm going to be waiting a lil while before making that purchase.

What a handsome boy! Took us some searching too, then this year we ended up getting two Dums.

Sweet looking Dumeril. I love the nose and the name. Congrats! Also it's good to hear the breeder was willing to let you pick a new Dumeril out. Some would be real a--holes about it.

Thanks everyone :) Even though he seemed like a nice guy when we bought the first snake I was still slightly nervous that he'd be a jerk about it but luckily he was super nice about it.
