thank you both!
i knew i'd be checking them out; i've been watching pieds on morphmarket and wanted to see the online/show price difference myself. then i walked away with a normal pied male for $240. Florida Reptile Ranch had a table with about 30 pied and 30 albino babies, so i sat there and looked at every male they had. i got to pick my perfect pied! i'm still excited about it all; this was not in the plan i swear!!!
he was a very nervous baby but never postured to bite. he took like 10 minutes to settle in to his tub but he was hiding last i checked. he's in a separate room so i'll be checking on him a lot until i learn the room he's in.

Looking forward to seeing a progression thread started with your new pied boy! Any names you're thinking of? He's absolutely stunning!

no idea, this was NOT expected hahaha. i like full names that are silly, i'm open to suggestions!!! for some reason i'm thinking P names??
i think i'll start a progression once i settle on a name.

Re: NARBC Tinley Park, Chicago!
This was awesome to look at, thanks for sharing! I've been wanting to go to expo but life keeps getting in the way, so I'll just live vicariously through you! And what a beautiful little boy you've got there! I can't wait to see more of him [emoji14] Sadly not the best at thinking of silly names however lol The only thing that comes to mind in Peanut

Congrats on your new Pied. I like that you said you found your perfect Pied. You should ever settle for an animal that isn't your vision of the perfect example, even if you have to pay more or purchase when you didn't plan too.

thank you. [emoji3]
i really like lower white pieds; i think the patterning they get is so cool. the guys at the booth helped me sort through and pick stuff out, but i knew i had to fall in love before even thinking of a purchase. when i saw this guy i just kept coming back to him. [emoji4]

Looks like you had a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing!

Hmm silly names huh? Well you could go for an Adventure Time name like you did with Yellow, or you could name him after food/drink, like you did with Spaghetti and Coffee! How about "Simon Marshall-Lee" or "Pumpkin Spice Latte"? :D

thank you, i had a BALL (get it??)! i wish i got pics of other species tho. there was a purple goldenchild retic that just blew me away; i didn't even think about a picture.
only very recently have i been eyeing pieds, and i'm very excited to watch this little guy grow. i checked on him last night and this morning; both times he had half his body out of the hide facing the front of the tub like he was ready for food. tonight i'm going to attempt to feed him!

Go for it best of luck. And it is neat to watch them grow. Mines about 4 years old and recently started developing some black spots so any thing could happen with pied balds.

Its kinda funny cause i was wondering if you would get a pie bald cause after a banana and a albino you got to get a pied. And for 240 not bad at all. Best wishes to him and you and i'm looking forward to what you name him.

awww it's like a lil freckle!!! precious. thanks for sharing!
hahaha that's hilarious you thought so; you definitely had me figured out! i thought the price was amazing due to the variety the table had and how i literally got to pick my perfect one. paying in cash also helped me bargain a little. [emoji6]
thank you for the well-wishes. i hope i settle on a name soon!!!
