A Trade and a Surprise!
Well, the guy didn't want to drive out to me this weekend and instead decided to meet me where I work as its at least half way. I have met them before actually. Same guy I got my lesser female BP from.
Well, I had originally contacted him as he had an MBK for sale/trade but when I asked he said that someone else had already set a time to pick him up and instead offered an albino cape gopher snake (female).
I have kinda been looking at them anyway (but really wanted a Bull). So figured...eh...why not?!
Well, we were all set to meet today and I packed up my most angry death worm I own (juvie male rough scale sand boa), and took him to work with me where he hid in my desk all day.
A little before 8 the guy lets me know he's on his way. By 9 he's there. And not with just the gopher....but also the MBK! Apparently the other guy fell through and since I orriginally wanted the MBK, this guy just threw him in as a bonous! Lol.
Well, needless to say, I had to play musical tanks when I got home. It was the first time I really got a chance tolook at either snake as I had to smuggle them back to my desk where they sat for about an hour before I headed home. I will say that while I really appreciate the gesture of throwing in the MBK, I think I am over capacity! I will probably need to buy a new tub this weekend lol. Also, the MBK seems like a lower quality one as there is SOOOOO much yellow on him.
I may or may not keep them. Time will tell. But I will say this...I am sooooo happy to no longer have to worry about that evil thing in a snake's body! I did warn the guy how feisty the snake was, but he didn't seem bothered.
Anyway, here are a few pics of the new guy and girl.
Are Gopher snake's heads supposed to be like that?
