Eyelash Viper
So yesterday i got a Bothriechis Schlegelii (Eyelash Viper). She is a very little girl, and a Christmas Tree color variation, very pretty. Shes got alittle bit of an attitude from what i see. I set her up in a nice ExoTerra. I promise i will post pictures tomorrow morning, when my girlfriend gets home with my camera. My huge order from Midwest came in today also, very happy about that. If you google Christmas tree Eyelash viper a few pictures come up that look very similar to her, shes just smaller. But again i promise for pictures tomorrow.

Re: Eyelash Viper
So you got yourself a Christmas tree after all. Congratulations. Just read up on them and they are scale drinkers and will sit on the same spot for days. Very interesting.

Yes!  I specialize in Arboreal Tree Vipers.. Ive written more then one paper on them. (you know college papers lol) I can almost name every species scientifically, although my pronunciation of several needs work haha. I have done plenty of research and been hands on (not literally haha) with them for almost a year. I find myself qualified to own one as do my mentors. FYI they are scale drinkers in captivity only because they dont recognize a stagnant water source. Once they are familiarized with one they will utilize it. I have many tricks to get them to understand what a water dish is. lol

Re: Eyelash Viper
Same, I though you just had to get rid of your snakes? You stated you were going to be living on campus, what is the policy on keeping Hots.

Re: Eyelash Viper
I'm hoping he will be housing them in a secondary location, dorm rooms aren't secure, and even a locked viv can be broken into quite easily.

Re: Eyelash Viper
I believe it was a one bedroom. Regardless when maintenance crew notices the hot it will hit the fan.

Re: Eyelash Viper
Its an apartment, technically it is in city limits so its a campus zone but its not actully on campus, it is ran privately as are many. You dont have to attend USC to live there. Jay there is a huge difference between a 8 foot cage and a 12"x12x12... I have everything worked out.
@stephan you cant have pets of any kind in any dorm.
