Pinch Me Please!!!!!

Alittle over a week ago, I saw an ad on KS for an adult pair of 100% het amel Bloods - for FREE. The only requirement was they had to be picked up in person.... As luck would have it their location was about 100 miles north of me and I figured I'd take the bait........

Several emails later, still not seeing any photos of them and really not knowing what to expect - after all, how nice could a free pair of snakes be - I mean really.....

Here's what came home with me tonight

This girl here is just stunning! Every single damn bit of 5.5 feet and rock solid - not fat and flabby.

This is the male. Just as stunning as his lady friend. Not as red - more golden orange, and a very fit 4.5 feet.

Along with this pair came original receipts and feeding/shed records.

I still cant believe these are now mine........
The only thing I knew for sure, is that the person who I had been corresponding with seemed very sincere and kind. She is a great person with some really amazing animals, and I cant thank her enough...

Hope you like 'em.

I'm stoked for sure - and even if they were nothing special I'd be really appreciative.

Good score on the BP's That's awesome.

Yeah it looks like you hit a home run with that find!!! Great colors on both of them.

Can we assume that "het amel" means "het T+ albino"?

Wow thats a great Craigslist pickup, you never really know what you're going to end up with on there. I've had great encounters and shady ones just never know...Anyhoo you got a good one one! Congrats they look beautiful!

Sweet grab!

Are you sure its a 1.1 pair?

Like said above....do you mean they are het albinos?

What are the black blotches on both of their backs?

According the receipts they are a 1.1 pair and are 100% het. T Positive albino.
T - is still so rare I thought just saying het amel would suffice.
The female was produced by Selective Origins and the male was produced by Chris Lipps - VPI stock.

After they settle in I'll get out the probes, have a few drinks, and hope for the best!

The black blotches on the backs are burn scars. The one on the female is very mild and will clear with a shed, the one on the male is a permanent scar but didnt damage the scales - except for two.

Thanks! I still cant believe how cool they are. You're right - they're het. T+ albino.

In hindsight, I guess when talking about T+ albinos the term amelanistic doesn't quite apply.

Thanks again.

They are really beautifully colored bloods! I can't help but wonder... what's the catch? I'm a pessimist, I know. :rolleyes:
They look well fed and healthy otherwise (minus the scars). Good luck with them!
