    New adoptee!

    I just brought him home on Wednesday. His owner; the son of one of my mother's coworkers; is going to college and his dorm does not allow pets. We were asked to take him in and of course we couldn't say no.





    His name is Basilis and he is 10 years old. He's a little underweight, and has a few dry spots from his last shed, but it's nothing I can't take care of. I was originally going to be bringing home a baby bp from the Orlando show this weekend but I thought taking in this guy seemed like the better thing to do.

    Nice pick-up! I was given one for exactly the same reason last year, kid going to college, parents didn't want to deal with it. "He" gave me six eggs back in February.

    Nice looking and good on you!

    Does he have a drag in the pattern right behind his head? If yes, that granite could be genetic.
