new addition

[chibbi]

a friend of mine decided to go off to the navy so she needed someone to take her rtb off her hands. since i've already had one for about a year, i bought it from her.
his name is Buddy. He's the darker one in the pictures. Codeine, the lighter one, I've had her for over a year now. Got her when she was a week old.

Very nice! I love the differences in color... yet another tribute of boas that I enjoy. Even the normals can look so different from one another.

That 2nd pix is HOM worthy if you ask me! One fast question... did you quarantine him before putting them together?

[chibbi]

yeah, i was REALLY surprised when i got Buddy to see just how different they were in color. its astounding.
Buddy has been having problems shedding, i really dont know why. his temps are right, plenty of water and food and what not. his last owner handled him almost every day and i havent as often, so who knows. i've neve rhad a problem with codeine.
and yes i kept them in different cages in different rooms for a month. they're still in seperate tanks, but i've been thinking of putting them together.
what do you think?

2 snakes should never be put together in one enclosure other than breeding purposes! Please do a search and read up on it. It's also a good idea to quarantine him for a few more months before letting them near each other. Beautiful snakes you have and I'd hate for anything bad to happen to them! Nice addition.

The impression I'm getting, is that looking at Codeine----it's a pastel. Reddish saddles and Codeine is showing the dark pink blushing all along the sides like a pastel. Is s/he?

Cool snakes though.

good to know. i actually asked the people at the local herpstore and they said that as long as they were about the same size that it should be ok.
glad i asked here as well.

I <3 them both. they've each got their own unique little personalitis. hehe.
