    My first bps!

    Hey guys I have decided to rescue a couple bps in my.area off Craigslist. I feel that I have the knowledge to take care of them...and if I have questions I have you guys! They will be in the cages they come with till this next wensday when I can get there tubs setup! The one is a 3ft normal...not sure on sex and the other is a possible pastel...or just a really bright normal 3ft also and unknown sex also. I am so excited. $160 for both BP and a 20l setup and 40 gallon setup. I will keep you all posted as to what's happening and get some pics up when I get them.

    This is the possible pastel.

    Congrats, looks like a normal, the only way to tell for sure is belly and head/face shots. Green eyes are a dead giveaway for a pastel Good luck on getting your setup too! I posted in your other thread on it to help you out

    Two of my three snakes were picked up two hours from my house. I simply turned on the heater in my car so they weren't too cold (I'm used to the heat so I didn't mind two hours of driving in a hot car), and transported them in pillow cases. You can also put them in pillow cases, then put the pillow cases into an insulated box if you wish.
    My opinion and method, of course.
