I caved...
So after much deliberation, I finally decided to get a BP. This little guy is four weeks old. I got him from a breeder, he was selling off his normals for only $40! (never seen them that price ever)
He looks very healthy and is on rat fuzzies at the moment, although I don't think he'll be on them for long...I think I will be moving him up one food size very soon.
Here are a couple pics I snapped before putting him in his tub.
"Unboxing"

Re: I caved...
Yeah...they are such cool snakes. I am going through agony waiting for a couple weeks before I can handle him...I noticed a little blue in his eyes...I think he's headed into his first shed.
Meanwhile, I'll be trying to come up with a name for him...

Re: I caved...
Ha, I told my husband we should call him Fuzzy Wuzzy because Fuzzy Wuzzy isn't Fuzzy is he?
Naw I'm thinking of maybe naming him Njoka or Nyoka (which are both words for "snake" in two different African languages, Swahili and Chichewa. Appropriate since BP's are African)

Re: I caved...
Found two photos I noticed that I never posted. Here they are. Still haven't thought of a name yet.

Re: I caved...
I got mine for 20 bucks. Maybe it's just Canada prices.

Re: I caved...
in vancouver washington normal 'baby' ball pythons go for around 50$ plus tax.... anything larger than that is anywhere from 75 - 90$ in most pet stores.
I'm sticking to the petstore i found in portland oregon..... >.< the only babies they had were morphs and the most expensive 'baby' morph was.. i believe 300$ or around there. The cheapest was the little lemon pastel i wanted so badly - 75$ the most expensive BP there was... I think - a black pastel or a calico for 1400$
America is expensive... >.>
