Alright so we just got back from the reptile show here. I was bummed there wasn't as much as last year, but it was still nice. I picked up a 2010 pastel female and a 2011 het pied male. My husband who could care less about my snakes(border line scared of them) is checking things out after walking around a bit, and decided he liked a 2009(I believe) pastel male! I asked if I could take a look at him real quick at which point I think hubby was hoping I would say no. He started asking what I thought of him and such for the price. I told him that it's a nice snake, with good size, and is probably as browned out as it will get(correct me if I'm wrong). I told him if he wanted him it was all on him. Oh and he had to at least touch it first. Needless to say he got it, and is now in love! Obviously he doesn't understand how addicting these guys are yet..... Photos to come in a bit.
