Getting first BP but from a distance

Everyone else had the advice that I was going to give :) I hope that you and the snake have a safe trip.
I can't help but ask; what kind of Jeep do you have?

So do I, will also have a trailer to collect a cat run. I have the Cherokee or Liberty s they are known in the US. It is the commercial version with 2 front seats and storage in the rear

Sadly this has fallen through. I phoned today to arrange time to collect only to be told that they gave the BP to a neighbour who has no previous experience with any snake or reptile. I have said that if this fails whilst I am in the UK to contact me.

I have contacted a reputable reptile shop in the area I am visiting and they have BPs so will go and have a look

Awe; I wish you luck in your BP hunt. All of the breeders that I would recommend, are in the USA :(

I am collecting 2 snow corns from a breeder 200 miles from me on my return. May see if he breeds BPs he does list them

Got a hatchling today, a normal I believe but beautiful. In a temp eco tank with a heat mat and water, bedding is bark but will use newspaper. Pics to come. Will not be feed until I get back to Ireland next week.

Awww sorry to hear the other fell through but sounds like you've got a lovely little one to bring up. Do keep it safe, warm and quiet and with access to hides and clean water at all times. These little ones can be a bit delicate to get going but they are truly a joy to watch grow up.

Will be having it's own eco viv for awhile then it's own viv once big enough. The only thing that worries me is the travel. Going on some bumpy roads, so will shred some paper to put around the bag

Was just getting everything ready for the big journey tomorrow and happened to look into the viv that she is in and there she was sitting on top of her hide, looking at the world :) And to make it better she did not hide when I sat down :)
