What a GREAT DAY! (Dial-up Warning)

Hey everyone! We just made it back about 90 minutes ago. The new acquisitions are secured in their new enclosures, and as soon as the battery on our digital camera recharges, we'll be posting some photos as well. Yesterday was indeed a blast! Judy and Jody are two of the nicest women I have ever met, and Petra is just a sweetheart. That little girl loves herps!

Okay, new acquisitions: Kayne, our thirteen-year-old spent his still-fresh birthday money on a black blood python, which is what Smulkin is holding in that last pic. Believe it or not, he's a very sweet snake with no trace of skittishness.

I was offered 3, that's right - 3, baby BPs for $40 - not each, ladies and gentlement, but $40 for all 3! You just can't pass up a deal like that. And these guys are gorgeous! A LOT of bright gold in them. So I've got 1 male and 2 females sitting snug in their Sterlites beside my desk. Woo Hoo!

Jody, I wish you could have made it into DC with us. It was a lot of fun, but we could have skipped the march around the tidal basin - talk about stinky!!! And poor Petra had enough less than halfway around the thing - I'm sorry, sweetheart! Judy, thanks for putting up with us all day and for the nice words about my borderline delinquent children (okay, they're not THAT bad, but it was a long ride home).

Suffice it to say, a good time was had by all, and if you ever have the chance to hang out with Judy or Jody, grab it!

Wow, 3 new babies, that's great! I hope they're CB, but I know you'd check into that and make sure you knew what you were getting either way. I'm sure you'll enjoy them. Are they sexed?

Oops, you're right, Andrew, and I didn't even see it the first time I read this over. Sterilites, desk, 3 babies, $40, all registered, but not that they were 1.2. I need some good sleep one of these months. :roll:

When are you actually moving? Maybe after you move, you might have time to sleep. :D Remember there is no rest for the wicked that is why I am always tired, lol. :lol:

You guys are awesome haha. Man now I'm perplexed though I wanted that af House snake and I still do but then again I love Borneos so much. Man. Is there any way I could go talk to a snake advisor? We could map out the perfect herps for me hahaha. Glad you guys had a good time sounds like fun! Sweet new additions! :)

It's supposed to be at the end of this month, but due to unforeseen complications (read, "everything that could go wrong has gone wrong"), it could be at the end of June or even July. I'm still packing and sorting and storing on the assumption that it will be the end of this month, though, just to be on the safe side. What a mess! I must have been very wicked indeed! :twisted:

Jonah, I'd go with the AHS.....Bloods are a big step up from Ball Pythons and I wouldn't want you to get too ahead of yourself (I'm not doubting your ability, or anything like that lol).
