    Out of control....
    And I will need therapy to put a cap on the trigger with new additions. Couldn't resist this little guy and did a spontaneous transaction with Garrick again. Can you believe this handsome Vanilla Scream?https://ball-pythons.net/gallery/fil...age_659208.jpg

    Stunning purchase! You can't go wrong w/ anything that Garrick has for sale.

    Can't blame you! It's so hard to resist Garrick's snakes! He keeps producing amazing animals and every time he updates I get so tempted wanting a second bp! lol

    I drool a little inside every time I see a vanilla scream, so thank you very, very much for the eye-candy. Probably because they look so similar to disco fires. Just a good, good aesthetic right there.

    what a little stunner! congrats on the great pickup!

    I've been eyeing the various screams for a while, they don't fit into any of my plans but they are just so pretty.

    Albert Clark, put the credit card down and slowly back away with your hands up! You are under arrest for lavish snake spending habits. :D
    I have put a cap on myself since purchasing Chuck the Killer Pied. I CAME SO CLOSE TO ORDERING MORE snakes for my breeding project ideas, and then I realized I was getting way ahead of myself, and I need to focus my attention on the pets I have now. I also need to accept that my budget really doesn't have any more room for snakes! :colbert:


    That being said, NICE SNAKE!

    Thanx and your welcome! Yes, and it was a toss up between the two.

    Thanks AA. That's enough eyeing now you have to start buying. You can make a new project. Have to have vanilla and fire genes in the collection. Pastel too. But I know you have pastel already.

    You know Albert, recognizing you have a problem is a good sign that you're on your way to recovery. That isn't to say you won't fall off the wagon again some time down the road. Just try to stay strong.

    I too just caved to the impulse to buy and will hopefully have "My Precious", I mean, my purchase next week.

    Congrats on a very nice addition.

    See, I was going to listen to you at first but you "caved in". I only need three more though. Honest. Lol. Between the garters and the kingsnakes I am busy.

    Nice looking snake!

    I'm itching to add some animals for my breeding project too...at least 1.2 lol. It is too bad my tight-wad husband keeps me in check (not really, I'd spend everything if he didn't lol). I'll have to wait till Christmas for my next addition I think and that is a hard thing to do.

    The only thing that helps is to stop scrolling MM, kingsnake, fauna, and the breeders' sites that you like. That is what sucked me into this new breeding project..Too much time looking at pretty snakes and getting ideas lol.

    Good luck with your new addition!

    Thanks EL. Ever since I saw Psyrocke's Vanilla scream I knew it was between this or a Disco inferno or Disco scream.

    Thanks Psyrocke, and I see we both shopped with Garrick for our screams. I wonder if they are related? Interesting. :)

    I actually didnt get mine from that person..I have no idea who he is. A local pet store owner here in MA bred this guy. THe owner's name is Brian and he runs Dinky's Reptiles and Aquatics. I'm not sure where he got the parent(s) that made Wash however. I do know that the parents are a Firefly x Vanilla

    Oh, ok. When I spoke to Garrick he said he sold another male scream that had a hatch date in 2016 so I thought of you. I know you said your male was a 2016 hatchling also.

    Ah happens to be coincidence then! He is a '16 hatchling though.
