    Considering an Enchi - Opinions Welcome

    I came across this 800 gram 2013 Enchi female who is available locally. I know where I'm leaning (which is of course most important), but I'm trying to not have a case of proximity bias.

    Do you mind giving me your worth on this girl? I already have a big Enchi girl, so she could potentially be my second. Would you add her to your collection? Honesty is appreciated.

    Thank you for your opinions in advance!

    Best regards,
    Eric

    Re: Considering an Enchi - Opinions Welcome

    For me it depends if she's a steal. Since I already have an enchi and the only reason why I would get another one is if it's a bargain and she would look spectacular then the one I have.
    I wouldn't pick her up. I kinda learn my lesson to a certain point. If I ask myself SHOULD I PICK HER/HIM UP? Then end up getting it i feel less desirable after picking it up and having it. Kinda like I should of waited for another opportunity.
    If I'm in that mode I gotta have it. It looks beautiful and I do manage to get it. I'm really happy and glad that I did! Kinda feels like I'm really proud and lucky to get it

    But the snakes I was iffy to get and i did buy seems to be problematic for me. Doesn't eat to well, always miss couple of meals, etc. Hope that makes sense.

    Good pattern and decent coloring and blushing. Looks like it's close to a shed maybe? I don't think it'd be a mistake to get her. She'd make nice babies I bet.

    Honestly??? I have never had a thing for Enchi's, and that one doesn't do anything for me either, but it will be your snake, and your decision..And remember you said to be honest

    Re: Considering an Enchi - Opinions Welcome

    Thanks, everyone. I appreciate your candid honesty. If she were a steal, we wouldn't even be having this conversation. She's very reasonable, but not a steal.

    Ultimately, the decision came down to either more snakes or more racks. Tough to add to your collection when you're getting tight-ish on space! My wife made sure to remind me of that when I asked her about this.

    Also, BLASPHEMY to you, albinos_rules. Enchi is amazing and even more so in combos.
