Got my first BP today!

I picked him up from a nice breeder. Very healthy, VERY attentive, a little nervous it seems, but not too bad. Hes on a live rat pup every 5 days, and when I gave him his first tonight, he looked it over for twenty seconds then went to town on it. I was glad to see he wasnt too stressed or nervous to eat. He should start a shed in a week or so, which will be nice. Ill get some pictures up soon, but I didnt want to bug him too much. Nobody likes indigestion :)

congrats on your first bp. hope its healthy and nothing goes wrong :)
i just got my first bp 2 days ago.
is it a baby? male/female?

Its a baby, a month or two old. He had to check on the exact hatch date, which he'll email to me tonight. Really nice guy. Its a male as well. He had two brothers and a sister.

yeah, mine is a month old to. who did you get him from? does he have an online place?

Nah. He's a local who has been taking care of them for years, but just decided to start breeding last year. This was his first batch.

I would definitely switch to F/T while he's young. Just my :2cent:

F/T = Frozen/Thawed?

should i do that for my baby to?

You got it! Frozen thawed, trust me.. It can get messy, the rat/mouse can bite the snake, and what if your snake starts to fast, your stuck with a mouse to take care of, like I said before I definitely say switch while he's young :)
