Loving this site!!

Yay!!! Tomorrow I am calling to arrange a time and place to pick my "soon-to-be" first snake up on Sat! I am sooo excited :P I just can't wait :o Little does my mom know that this is the first of many forseeable snakes in my future 8) :twisted: :twisted: !! And we have had sunny weekends lately Marla :) Thanks for the welcome btw. I'll post pics as soon as I can get them.

Welcome Danielle.....sounds like you've been doing a lot of research..that's great! I'm excited for you....Saturday will be here before you know it. Let us know how it goes. :D

We've only had 3 days in the last month or so that haven't been sunny out here in BC, muahaha!!!

Everyday is sunny in FL, may not be sunny all day, but it's sunny everyday......hence the nickname, 'Sunshine State'

Congrats and good luck! The adiction is strong with you already ;)

I think we've not had rain one day out of the last 3 weeks. My kids have declared the multi-year drought over. :) But it's usually only rainy for part of the day and sunny or overcast for the rest so that we can properly enjoy the humidity.

Hope to see pics soon, Danielle! :)

Ok, I was supposed to get the snake today. I didn't. The guy had to work so I should be getting the snake tomorrow( keeping fingers crossed as I don't think I can take one more day of anticipation :P ). Now, If you read my post in the site general section, i'm also getting this guy's Red Tegu. I do have an emty 75g tank sitting around but seriously, I was not expecting to get the lizard practically dumped on me! I've been researching Tegus and they don't look too hard to take care of. They look kind of interesting. I just don't know if i'm ready for it :) I'm going to give it a go as this guy HAS to get rid of the Tegu tomorrow
(landlords- orders). So if any experienced Tegu owners read this, post or pm me with as much care info as you have! I'm researching them now, but experiences are always appreciated!

Thanks,
Danielle

Ok, you can now count me in the club of BP owners! She is CUTE!!!!! I am in LOVE with her! She is a beautiful normal BP, very sweet considering I just got her and she had to be handled quite alot because I had to clean her tank out as the guy couldn't have cleaned it for 2 months. There was crap everywhere! The tank stunk to high heavens :shock: She is otherwise a very healthy BP, and is only about 2ft long ( wouldn't that make her around 2 years or so?). She only came with a tank and screen. NO hides, NO water bowls, NO thermometer, NO nothing! I knew I was going to be rescuing these guy's (Tegu included). I love the way she feels in my hands. The power she has is AWESOME! I won't be holding her anymore for 2-3 weeks (unless I have to re-sterilze her tank or something like that) depending on how she settles in. So far so good! I bought a hide for her and will be getting everything else she needs on Tuesday. So far she is just hanging out on top of her hide and not in it. She just keeps inquisitively watching what I am doing and feeling out her surroundings. Oh, Her name is Alexa. I'll keep you guys updated on her progress!

Great Danielle! I'm glad it went well for you. I'm sure you'll make a great keeper.

Thanks Carson. She is just soo happy now. She actually went into her hide for the evening. Must have been a stressful day for a BP not to be out at night :)
