Early christmas present to myself? Too tempting...
There's a gorgeous GTP for 750$ on Signalherp.com that I can't stop staring at.
Scales and Tails is sending an import in today and I'm close enough to their Toronto store that I could pick up from there, so there would only be an addition 15$ fee. (My share of shipping from SH to ST)
But I just splurged 400 dollars on new equipment for my snake room through hagen order at order (yipee for avoiding retail prices eh?) as a christmas present to myself....x_x'''
Someone talk me out of it?

Re: Early christmas present to myself? Too tempting...
You're no help at all!
> _ <!!!
:P No I don't already have one. Have wanted one ever since discovering the whole world of snake keeping.
My worry is how 'delicate' they are. That, and the money. But I haven't seen a gtp for sale from an establish breeder (aka not someone random on kijiji or cl) that I wouldn't be paying huge bucks with shipping and handling for ontop of actual price.

Re: Early christmas present to myself? Too tempting...
I have until 8pm est to make my mind up. I don't think I will, I can't justify a months rent on another feeding mouth. Especially when I still have to think about college.

Re: Early christmas present to myself? Too tempting...
I say go for it. They aren't that hard to care for as long as you put them into a proper home. I mist maybe once a week and his humidity stays spot on. He drinks from his water bowl so I don't need to mist daily as some people do. Mine is a jerk but I still love watching him coil and move around. It's nothing like any other snake.

Re: Early christmas present to myself? Too tempting...
Here, I'll help:
DON'T BUY IT!
You need the money for...
College
Food
Rent
Food for the snakes you have already
Xmas gifts
General savings
Future travel plans
When you're more financially stable you'll be more able to afford it without regrets
