Wahoooo!!! I've got my first baby :)

[Clownfishie]

I'm in love -- hehe He is SO CUTE! Thanks so much to Paul & Lorraine Gillard ... I couldn't be happier with this little guy

Without further ado, I'd like to introduce Xander, my new baby (please excuse the absurd number of pictures... hehe...what can I say, I'm a proud new mommy... )

Here's the pic that made me fall in love with him before ever meeting him in person


Still in his little dish after arriving at his new home:


Being transfered to his new home:

[Clownfishie]

Relaxed enough to explore a little bit...



And finally, checking out his new digs




So -- ain't he just the cutest thing you've ever seen???? Hehe

Oh, and if you aren't bored senseless already, there's some more pics here... LOL!

He has a really amazing pattern! Nice animal, make an excellent addition to my collection
Congrats,
Trevor

[Zhakrin]

LOL,

I know what you feeling...It is just pure joy finding a little jem like that and bringing him home.

I almost bought a beautiful female off of Paul & Lorraine. She was gorgeous. Very unusual pattern an almost a glowing yellow color.

But alas stupid me decided he wanted to see the other vendors before buying her and LIKE a Vulture someone snatches my beautiful little girl.

LOL just joking...congrat to the guy that bought her and I will continue my hunt.

BTW Paul felt really bad about it all and was a true gentleman.

[Clownfishie]

Thanks Boid! I really like his pattern too... that's what made me pick him I'm afraid that he won't be coming to live with you though -- hehe -- he's definitely staying with me!

You bet Zhakrin! I'm so excited... hehe... it's all I can do to restrain myself from going and pestering him... I know I need to let him settle in for about a week before I try handling him really, but damn is it ever hard to resist the temptation! LOL
I think I know which girl you're talking about -- she was beautiful! If I'd been looking to get a pair, she definitely would've been coming home with me -- hehe.
Paul was great! Very helpful... and they were nice enough to keep Xander aside for me until I got to the show -- definitely happy with their service, wouldn't hesitate to deal with them again They also said I should write them if I ever had any questions... I'm sure I'll be doing that.. LOL.

You know -- ReneeB has a very nice female BP for sale -- 8 months old I think? She looked quite nice If I hadn't been looking for a male instead of a female, I probably would have snatched her up... You could also try Corey Woods... he sent me some pics of some males that he had for sale, and they were pretty impressive He just didn't send them fast enough -- LOL... I had already fallen in love with Xander

[jay76]

That is one stunning bp! Too bad I was looking for the corn of my dreams or I'd have got him before you could (LOL!) You made a great choice. Couldn't have been easy with all the beautiful choices you had . Paul and Lorraine are definitely getting more business from me... maybe a variable king next time

Xander's a kick a** beauty! I'm more than a little jealous

[Clownfishie]

Why thank you! Hehe... As IF I would've let you get him... *grins*. But feel free to be jealous all you want LOL....

[Linds]

Very cute! Congrats on your first (and most certainly not last ) snakie!

[Clownfishie]

LOL Linds -- nope, definitely not the last Hehe... In fact, I'm all set to buy a beautiful BRB from Jeff once I move out west in a few weeks Although she's going to be living with him for a while until I get my new place -- getting ONE snake into my parents house is going to be fun enough, nevermind 2
And thanks! Not that I'm biased or anything, but I think he's damn cute... hehe...

[aaron]

Your getting quite the collection going there clownfishie!!! Damn fine lookin bunch of kids! Congrats on the new addition and I can see you love him as much as I love mine!

aaron

[Tim_Cranwill]

Congrats. He looks like a great guy! Just be careful. I only intended to get one snake, but which type? And they're cheaper in pairs? Hmmmm..... Now I have 15!!!!

Good luck!

[Quervo]

Clownfishie .. he is AWESOME. That is an amazing pattern.
I know what you mean about letting then be for a week .. it is haaaaaaard!! I'm hoping to get a new litte female on tues .. hehe .. We can swamp everyone with "kid" pictures.

[Clownfishie]

Thanks everyone!

Tee hee Cranwill -- I know Well, I only intended to get one snake too -- unfortunately in the process of researching which ONE to get, I came up with a decent sized list of species that I really like... LOL I knew it was all over then The BRB is next ... I'd also like to get an IJCP, and a solomon island ground boa... and what the hell, something else will probably end up on the list too

Quervo -- Thank you!!! Like I said, I'm in love -- hehe I LOVE his pattern... can't see to get enough of staring at him I'm very proud of myself for mostly doing it through all the pictures I've taken instead of continuously popping the lid off of his enclosure though... hehe Can't wait to see pics of your new girl! It's a deal -- they'll never know what hit 'em *grins*. And then just when they thought it was safe to come on to the forum again -- we'll swamp them AGAIN with new pictures.... tee hee Wonderful master plan!
