    Yeah, for me personally, those two are my hands down favorites.
    I'm the type of cat who has a name or two in mind, but will have to get to know the snake (or any pet) before deciding on a name.

    Looks like Aurora is the winning name so far.

    Re: Female Platinum Titanium Naming poll.
    The wait is killing me! Had a phone conversation with their internet sales guy and they know that I want her for an educational animal. He said that they had started handling her more and she was doing great so far. They said she has not cage aggression and is super mellow when being handled. I know I will have to get to know her before I can show her off and she needs to settle in as well. I am so ramped up over this girl. 2k is a lot for me to spend on anything. She will be so worth it. This will be my rarest morph combo I have in my collection and she is and will be loved for a long time.

    While I am waiting on her I am doing mad construction on Rainbow's new enclosure and making something so cool takes time. There will be a revealing thread once it is done.

    Checked up on Aurora yesterday. She is eating well (no surprise there). I had a conversation about her before I pulled the trigger and told them I want her for a educational animal, his response was, I will work wither her some while she is still here. She already has a good demeanor but he is going out of his way to work with her more to make sure she is ok with frequent handling. I was surprised by this. Prehistoric Pets is who I am buying her from. The wait is killing me but 3 more months she will be mine, mine, ALL MINE.... evil laughter. LOL. She is growing steadily. He did not send a photo this time but that is ok. I will ask for another photo on the 1st when I make my payment. My birthday is October 30th. It is my goal to have her home by then. Cant wait.

    Thanks for the support. Sometimes I wonder if anyone ready my posts. Yep the wait is hard. A few more payments to go and she will be here. I am still painting and sealing up Rainbow's new enclosure. Will be done before Aurora arrives for sure. Aurora is going into the cage Rainbow is in. She will be worth the wait and payments. Never made payments on a pet before.

    Sounds like your planning on some live plants. I've got a pothos in my males cage under a fluorescent plant light. He seems to really enjoy it and it Helps with odor and air quality. He usually takes care of fertilizing it for me too haha. I'd recommend completely rinsing the roots and re-potting them though or sterilizing the soil somehow. I'm still trying to get rid of them blacks gnats. Btw, what are you sealing to interior with on the big cage? I'm in the planning stages for the retics forever homes and not sure I want to spring for FrP this time.

    Making another payment on Monday when I get paid. That will be $1200 out of the $2000 so only $800 to go. If I manage $400 a month after that she will be home before Christmas. If not right after the new year. Feels like an eternity. Still working on Rainbows enclosure so have to get it done before she gets here.

    Getting impatient. So hard to wait. By the time she gets here will be 6 months of paying on her. Her enclosure is ready and all balanced out. Just so hard to wait....... I kinow she will be so worth it though.

    Yep been paying 300 a month to get her paid off by January 1st. By then almost 6 months of paying on her. They know I want her as a show animal so they have been using her to show to others already and are working with her. They get a 5 star rating for sure. Prehistoric pets has been a great experience all the way around. Constant updates and new photos every month. Will do a complete review once I have her in my care. Hope winter doesn't slow me down on getting her. If so.... I will make the drive and get her in person. just 3 more payments to go. November, December and January. The last payment will only be 200... Wish I could squeeze another hundred out the next 2 months but not going to happen. LOL. She will be here in good time.

    I am sure some breeders would love to have their hands on her but she will be a display, education animal. I am doing herp education shows with all my animals. Look up Rainbow my suntiger retic I have already. She is puppy dog tame, 10ft 30lb animal, and growing, that is loved by all that meet her. Great personality. I can only hope Aurora is similar in disposition. Was told by Jay himself that they are already working with her for their shows so she is use to it. 2 months to go and she is MINE! Hope the weather is not to cold to ship her by then.

    Is crazy having to wait this long. LOL. So many things going through my mind. Winter is here. Will she be delayed? Will I have a warm week and she be shipped right away? Will it be spring before I see her? So many fears and stresses. Breath! Her enclosure has been setup for months now. Everything dialed in. Not putting substrate in there till she is here so it will not be dried out. For me, it is not about the $$ she is worth. It is about my love for her and her kind. Simply amazing animal.
