    New 2012 Hypo BCIl! Can't WAIT!
    After a ton of research and planning, I am laying down my cash for a 2012 Hypo BCI. Currently have 2 BPs and have owned/fostered many other snakes in the past (NOT looking to have a massive number in my collection), but this is my very first BCI. He's a puppy dog! Purchasing from Sonja K Reptiles in MN. I recently had hand surgery and she's keeping him until I get this damn cast off (about two weeks).
    She is one of the BEST breeders I have come across: patient, knowledgeable, and down right fun:

    Without further a-do. Here he is (these pics are a couple months old):

    Yeah, it came from some movie...just can't remember which one. Love the dancing banana...did the dancing banana in my cube at work a while back and I think the office thought I had finally snapped. LMAO! It'll give me some time to get his enclosure setup...It's like when I brought both my (real) sons home...Crib, nursery, supplies, will all be ready :P

    "I will love him and squeeze him and call him George" came from Warner Bros & Bugs Bunny.

    "And I will call him Squishy and he shall be mine and he shall be my Squishy" was from Dory in Finding Nemo.

    I love both lines and use them a lot, lol...



    Awesome pickup you got there - great colors and pattern! Huge congrats! Welcome to the Boaddiction.......... :P

    Great looking snake! When looking at posts with pictures like this, and DooLittle's latest addition Epic, I find myself in a dilemma: do I go arboreal, or RTB for my next pick up..

    Congrats on the new addition.

    If you have experience with other snakes and want more of a "looker" a BCI is the next logical step. I am certainly glad I did...I have been waiting for this day to come and the excitement is killing me...:banana:

    I normally don't like the look of hypos, but her tail is so gorgeous. I tend to be picky with boas. I got mine because I loved his tail.

    Be ready though, you're gonna want more! They're such awesome snakes!

    Hey where is Sonja K reptiles in MN? I'm in MN and it might be worth a looksy. 2 weeks is short so hang tight!! I still have 4 weeks to get my cage, then probably another 2 to get everything just right, and then,,,,, I can find my new pal.

    I'm excited for you!!

    Hey Gio. Wife and I currently live in Sioux Falls... but born and raised in MN (Rochester, Woodbury, Fairmont). Sonja has a site though like many this time of year, not real current: www.sonjakreptiles.com

    You can also find her on iHerp as bka_mama and see all her lovely animals, what she has for sale, and her current breeding projects. She is a QUALITY breeder. NOT a QUANTITY breeder. She didn't do any BCI pairings for the 2013 season, but she does have some 2012 BCIs left. Good luck!
