5 grand! ...ouch!

My female bp is very easy going too. When I first got her though she was more prone to striking out at me. Seems to have settled down an awful lot. She's been fasting forever---she did eat about two weeks ago though but wouldn't accept when I tried a week later.


Milk snakes are so beautiful! What kind do you have?

I am really excited about the show tomorrow! Got everything all set up and ready. I hope there are baby bci's there. Yeah, I will post pics as soon as I am able.

cheers!

Ya, but nearly 2 grand just for the corner whirlpool bath. My daughter's excited, it seats 3. She can't wait to have a couple girlfriends sleep over and bring their bathing suits. lol.

I can honestly say you are the first person I've talked to that has bps that said they were agressive in anyway. Never heard of any striking. lol. My female curls in a ball with her head tucked in with strangers. My 2 males are older and they are just sweet hearts all around. sounds funny for a snake but couldn't explain it any other way, they are great.

As for the milksnake I have a tangerine female. She is awesome but a real spaz. she is under a year, hates to be handles and very often musks me. I've got stiked at a couple times, but she is usually pretty good unless I startle her.



If you interested in seeing my other snakes you can see them under snakes on my site. I've got my 3 bps, my milk, a ksb, a pair of hognoses, and some corns. In the future I want to add a bci or bcc. Or maybe both. lol. If I can bring myself to cut down my collection in other areas. I also have a ton of lizards. Bds, bts, oci skinks, a berber, leos, fatties and cresteds, a uro and a plated lizard. Hmm, think that's all the scales. Then I also have 3 collonies of rats, a 1.2 collony that is actually my pets, they get played with almost daily. A ferret, a hedgehog, cockatiels, and we're getting a boxer pup in about a month. Very busy here. lol

For the original question: Python and boa are from the same family because each one has a remant of ''bassin'' bone (sorry, I don't remember the english word: I mean the bone to with the legs are attached to) and vestigial legs (spurs).

The principal difference between them is than pythons are egglayers (oviparous) and boas give life to living baby (ovoviviparous).
