got a new BP
got a little BP to go along with nigma. today was interesting, i brought the little guy/girl home and set up his viv and put him in it and he seemed alittle stressed and puffy so i left him alone. then i look just a little while ago, prolly around 3:15am for me and both the nocturnal snakes are out and about in their cages. i went over to nigma's viv and opened the door because he was near it, and for the FIRST time ever since i've had him he smelled at me for a second then came out to me. it was the first time i've ever had to not physically reach in his viv and take him out to handle. i thought it was awesome. i snapped a few quick pics then put nigma back a few minutes ago and left them alone. 
oh and i have yet to think of a name for the newcomer, i'll have to give it some thought.
/ and i need to get him some branches, lol.
/// and those books are just until i get a better lid O.o lol

Re: got a new BP
I used to do books on my corn snakes aquarium. Couldn't find a snapping lid to save my life. Beautiful snake

Re: got a new BP
You got the heat lamp in the middle? Better to move it to one end so that there is a temperature gradient.
Beautiful snake tho!

he ate around 5 days ago and i just got him today, so i'll probably feed him in a few days once he's settled in.

haha, funny thing is i moved it around to have it on the right side before i even read this i just had it that way because only 1 side of the lid actually fits into the slot, so i have to weigh the other side down until i get a new lid. i just flipped things around and have the books in different spots with the light on the right.

Re: got a new BP
Congrats on the new little BP! She/he appears to be quite active and is very cute!
When you can, I'd try to cover half the lid with a damp towel or foil to help hold humidity in.

Possibly, BPs are well known for being finicky when it comes to eating.

Re: got a new BP
Nice little BP you've acquired. And, of course, I love seeing pics of Nigma 
What about Vidar for a name? He's a half brother to Thor, second in strength only to Thor, survived Ragnarok, and avenged his father's death - seems pretty badass. And, I think it sounds kind of gender neutral, though if you do have it sexed and it's female you change it to Vidara.

Re: got a new BP
i went to grade school with a girl named freya. i thought about loki, but its too common. i'm prolly gonna go with Vor or Skadi, but i'm leaning on Vor. it has a nice sound to it. but at the same time Skadi being the godess of winter and THE HUNT, it almost makes sense O.o lol
