    New BP owner and New to the Forum!

    Hey guys my name is Chris. I recently purchased my Cinnamon BP from a renowned pet store in El Paso. Only $40 for a newborn! not bad. I'm hoping she's a girl so I named her Onyx. She's not shy at all and is very active and loves to climb everything. I've fed her 3 times already. she prefers live food over Frozen then thawed so she's into the whole Killing thing. Her tank is spot on in terms of temps and humidity. but she has yet to poop I've done some searching and some people say thats normal and others say to freak out but for right now I'm not panicking I hope to learn a lot here and feel free to drop some useful tips Thanks, Chris

    Now for some pics

    Yawning pic was after a feed by the way she does it every time after she eats and randomly during the day!

    Good that your temps and stuff are spot on...but I would suggest getting some different hides. The half log probably wont provide enough security, I would go to Pin-up Reptiles and order a hide from them. They are rather cheap and have great customer service. Thats what I am currently using and my ball seems to love it.

    Welcome to the forum and BP world, get ready to get sucked in like we all have.

    Cheers,
    Eric

    this LB actually works real good. My normal girl loves it and stays in it almost all day. just take screw-on back off and flip it upside down and there ya go. i shove a little moss in the end that the opening is on the top to block out some of the light. But she loves it. check it out. can get them from home depot or any hardware store.

    and they are rather cheap
