Biak Chondro (PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

He's gorgeous Will.

Thanks Connie!!!

thats a killer deal!! keep a close eye on that tail. I would try and get it off asap!! like david said, it can be problematic. Maxwell's book is great!

as for the temper, it is a biak and those are supposed to have the worst temperment of the GTPs but its snake to snake. Mine is a Baik and i worked with her and she tamed down a bit.

the best thing to do is make sure your perches are easy to get in and out. this will come in handy when it comes to cleaning time.

Well i got him on a smaller perch last night, i waited till he came off his old perch and took it out. He is now happily coiled on a 1/2 in. perch!!!

Post pics of your Biaks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stunning!!! :D

Oh those things are ridiculous looking! They are among my favorite snakes to look at, but they freak me out a bit. LOL My ATB is enough of a handful for me. A buddy of mine has a super tame GTP, and it's a pretty cool experience handling him. Congrats on a very nice pick up!

Thanks Lucas. God i cant wait to start witnessing some color changing.

Yeah im kinda scared of this guy. He would eat me if i would fit...

don't stress him out too much but keep working with im. mine was the same way. countless bites from this girl!! she still mock strikes when she is pissy but hasn't bit me in a long time.....and now for saying this, the next time im in her cage she'll tag me!!

don't hold your breath on the color change!! Biaks take the longest!!

You better go knock on some wood, lol. Yeah that's cool that they take so long though, id rather see a gradual change over the years then a complete change in a year, ya know? Now that i got him on his smaller perch im gonna leave him be for a while. And im not sure if it is a he or a she... How old is the one in the picture?

Im hoping my copy of "the more complete chondro" comes in today. I actually had a dream last night that i got it and all the pages were blank. lol.
