Wow Jo! Congratulations on the new Cinnie! I guess it won out over the Black Pastel after all! Had I more money to spend, I might have come home with something cool too from B'ham. Looks like you guys had a blast!

Re: BHB Trip
It was an awesome trip.
My b/f and I got to go along. I am the super curly headed one in Jo's pictures.
I took almost 70 pictures and I dont think that I will be able to remember them all either. So when I get to posting pictures I will need some help as well.
It was a great learning experince for me. Jo was teaching a few things. What to look for in a snake and what things were called.
I came home with three new females.
A 100% Het Albino and two normals.
Jo helped me pick out these two pretty normals.
One was named before we even left the snake room.
I took this sweet looking little lady out of her tub. Jo and I was looking over her markings and thought that she was just awesome. The next thing I know, she tagged me on a knuckle. I thought to myself..you little burger(well the word I used started with a "B"). Then she really tagged me on the back of my hand. Coiled up and wrapped her body around my hand.
I just stuck my hand out to Jo and she said lets head for water.
Jo put a little bit a water on her to get her to let go and all she done was CHEW on me more. So we added MORE water and she actually was CHEWING and shaking her head. Was not letting go.
I had to go find Brian and asked him to get her off my hand.
I think Brian was afraid to hurt me but needed to get her to let go. I didnt mind the little prickly pain, but I didnt want her on my hand any longer. lol
Well her name is CHEWY!!!!
Even after I got home and took pictures of her today...she STILL tried nailing me again. As soon as my camera works with me and I figure out how to post pictures on here..I will.
It was a great trip though.
We went into so many rooms and so many times, I was starting to get dizzy.
Brian was an awesome person. He did answer every question even when I thought that I was asking something stupid.
When we would ask if he had a certain snake and it was in a different room, he just stopped what he was doing and off we went to go see it.
It was nice to meet all the people that went with us.
Made some new cool friends. Cant beat that.
Thanks again everyone!!!

Re: BHB Trip
LOL Jan that little female was absolutely determined to go home with you. I've never seen a baby chew down like that. I think the poor thing nailed you and then thought "uh oh I can't eat this!" but she was sure set on trying! :rofl: It was great finally meeting you and your husband Mike!
