    Resisted the temptation

    I've been wanting a ball python for a while now. Now that I have moved out of my parents house it is actually possible. Today my friend and I went to our local Repticon show. We both promised each other that we were only looking and not buying. Thankfully we managed to keep that promise but it was difficult. I found this cute butter hypo and was really tempted by her. She wasn't balling up and was sweet to hold. The seller even offered $200 for her which I think is a good price for a 4 month snake with her morph. The only reason I didn't get get was I'm not ready. I don't own any supplies to make her tub up and from the research I've done in the past, suggested setting up a tub a week before the snake comes home. Thankfully her breeder will have more of her morphs and will be coming to the January and April show.

    Just look at her. The temptation was hard to resist.

    It wasn't easy. She was super chill for a ball python. The only thing that stopped me was not having the supplies and not being sure where I would put her tub. The worst part was pay day was Friday so I had the money.

    I did! This is my second time going. I was surprised to see how busy it was for October. Lots of people and snakes.

    Also saw the women with a snake in a baby stroller again.

    Such willpower! I'm not sure if I could have! But it's good that you put the animals wellfare before your own wants and want to make sure you're prepared before you bring one home!
