Second snake incoming!

Welp, I've been talking about it for long enough, haven't I?

I stumbled upon someone who had a litter of high-red Brazilian Rainbow Boas, and I ended up snagging a colorful female!

She has been eating and shedding just fine, and the breeder said she is calm and inquisitive when being handled.

Here is the breeder's pictures of her:



I paid for her today, and she will be shipped to me next week. I'm really excited to meet her Now thinking of names....

I was following a few really nice breeders, but Ike from Ike's Exotics on facebook had a nice high red litter in August. Due to me having a tub open up thanks to moving Chaska to a new enclosure, the timing of those babies being ready to ship (before it got too cold) worked out well.

The new baby will be shipped to me early next week

Re: Second snake incoming!

Right? I'm super excited. I'm reviewing my list of name ideas, though I'm unlikely to settle on a name until I've had her for a few days.

The tracking number says she is ready for pickup at the Fedex depo. I wish I could leave work now and go get her! But I'll get out of work as soon as I can

Re: Second snake incoming!

SHE IS HERE! Squee incoming!

She seems all good and healthy, despite being shipped all night. She wasn't even nippy when I pulled her out of the cup. Scared yes, nippy no.

I LOVE HER THOUGH SHE IS SO TINY AND SO BRIGHT. I put her in her enclosure right away after snapping these pictures...now for the hard process of leaving her alone to settle in. I keep wanting to check in and look at her, haha. Good thing I have Chaska to handle in the meantime

Re: Second snake incoming!

What a cutie! She's got some clean markings, maybe she'll end up a nice bright adult.

Re: Second snake incoming!

I think so too I hope she turns bright red like her parents, but she seems like she will be beautiful no matter what!
