One of our members, Cueball, being his usual generous self offered Mike and I one of his lovely female BP's after he read about the loss of our first clutch. This isn't the first time Cue has stepped up to the plate on this forum to offer a friendly bit of advice, help on rack building and husbandry, a buddy to go to a show with, and for a few of us...a lovely snake from his own collection. He's also incredibly goofy, off-the-wall crazy and funny as all get out. An all around great guy (well other than the Jimmy avatar which still gives me the creepy heebie jeebies! LOL)
So Cue from our family thanks for this lovely gesture and the gift of Helori who will arrive this coming Tuesday. She'll be a very treasured part of our collection and a valued future breeder female. Her name was a challenge for me as I wanted both a celtic name but also one that had a special meaning.
Helori (pronounced hey-lo-ree) means "generous". Winston Churchill said this, "We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give".
This new little BP is going to be our 5 year old, Mikey's, first BP. He told me recently that he was upset that "the man from the truck never brings me a snake mommy!" so little Helori will be officially his to watch over and help with. As soon as she's here we'll get a picture up with her new very proud little owner.
Big hugs Cue!
Helori....
