New BP

Picked up this sweetheart who needed to be re-homed, it is unsexed at the moment, 5 years old, and weighs 2239g & a little over 4.5ft

She sounds huge. Where're the pictures? ;)

OOps I'm sorry :oops:

Photo not the best, will post better ones after QT

I noticed the wrinkly/loose skin near the base of the tail...my snake has this too although he is just a baby. Is this a sign of anything?

I've only had it 2 hrs. I don't see what you are referring to

wrinkled skin is usually a sign of dehydration.

That's a good-sized BP!

Yes, wrinkled skin can be a sign of dehydration. Dimpled scales (not quite the same thing but could look similar) are a sign of extremely high humidity levels, although this isn't so common in BPs as they are a bit more tolerant of humidity than some other snakes.

Wow she's really long!!! What a beauty you have there:D I'm glad she has a good new home!
