My First Ball Python! :D

Hey everyone :)

Today, I got my first BP, a pastel het hypo! It came in from Colorado, and I was extremely pleased when I opened up the box :)
I haven't a clue what to name it yet, but some of you wanted to hear what I decided to get. I really love this snake, and if I decide to breed them later down the road, it would be a great breeder :)
I need name ideas! Any thoughts are appreciated :)

I'm having issues putting the pictures up, but if you copy and paste those into your browser, it should work :)

It does not work, upload them to a hosting site such a photobucket.com or tinypic.com, upload them onto the site then copy and paste the IMG link for boards into the forum :)

Sorry about that :P I'll learn though ;)

Thanks! :) I'm still at a loss for what to name him.

That's a Nepenthes. This particular one doesn't get big enough to eat rats, but there are a few species out there that have the capability :D

The plant in the picture is actually a hybrid of 4 species. The hybrid name is Nepenthes x Weignerii.

This was actually a shock for me to see!!

Earlier today, I saw 'The Matrix' and decided to name him Neo. It surprised me, because I was considering Morpheus too! :P

I got him from Ultimateherps.com. Great snake, and outstanding customer service!

Look up pictures of Nepenthes rajah, or Nepenthes truncata. Both of those species are very capable of eating tree shrews and small monkeys in their native habitat.
