Deal popped up!
ok, well, we had no plans of another GTP purchase...BUT...Ben Siegel had a Biak neo up for auction, and hubby bought it for me for valentines...SO...we have at least a 10 days to 2 weeks (or more) for the weather to cooperate for shipping to make SURE that we have an ideal setup...we already have the components, just need to set it up and get it running...this one is 5 months old, and already much larger than the last disaster...20" long and feeding great!

Re: Deal popped up!
thanks! I have heard great things about Ben...been watching his auctions and reviews for quite some time now...never a negative word...especially on the green trees...so I am hoping for a better outcome!

I follow his auctions every day. I am extremely pleased with the red tail boa and Brazilian rainbow I received from him.
He will not send out an animal that is not established and eating well.
I placed a deposit on a monitor recently and he won't send it until it is eating aggressively and more established.
Best of luck.

Re: Deal popped up!
thank you! that makes me feel even better about this! going with a bit bigger tub this time to accomodate the RHP, but going to make sure there is enough cover so that size won't be an issue...like I said, lots of time yet to dial in everything...the weather is just toooo cold to ship...he requires a minimum of 35 night time temps to ship...and we haven't gotten above 12 in weeks...but "it" is paid for, so its mine! and we are keeping the name "Absolem" because we just LOVE that name!

Re: Deal popped up!
You can just tell the difference in robustness from this GTP baby to the one you had previously. This one looks much fuller and stronger.
Great find.

yup. you can wait up to 2 weeks, unless temps are too cold then they will certainly wait longer. His packaging is very good as well.
PS those biaks are feisty.

Re: Deal popped up!
thanks everyone! ok, I will update the signature...I need to anyway, since I acquired another T since then (thanks keltzerman) and I also ordered a leopard gecko for the hubby for v-day since he can't stop staring at them at the pet shop when we go..(Ben had them for $19, and since I am paying for shipping anyway, why not?)

Exactly why I went ahead and got my rtb at the same time as the rainbow. Shipping gave me an added excuse to do it at the same time.

Re: Deal popped up!
I still have time to add more if I want...I know hubby really wants a mexican fire leg tarantula...may email them to see if they have any in stock and prices...I now have 2 rose hairs, 1 adult female, and 1 juvenile...both awesome! can be tempermental, but I have become a pretty good judge of when to reach in, and when to scoot them to the other side of their enclosure for water changes, etc...LOL

Re: Deal popped up!
