The plot thickens...

What should we do with this....hmmmmmm...

http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n...jgray/cage.jpg

Hmmm..hehe. Do you think your ready for a larger snake? Maybe a burm or a dwarf retic? Or maybe a retic? Possibly a blood? Thats a big cage from the looks of it, and could house a wide variety of animals!!

CODE RED CODE RED....RAGING CASE OF E.T.S.!!!! Somebody quick grab the hemostats! Someone else grab a rat! There's a snake to feed that ought to be in that lovely empty spot!!!!!! Where's my aspen!!!! T-stat! Hides! For gawd's sakes people we're losing her!!!!!

Hahaha....Jo, you crack me up!!


Cass....what a fabulous looking set-up you have there!! That bottom cage looks distressingly empty, though! Seems like it will be a sweet enclosure for your BCC when she gets bigger....but that's a ways away yet...... hhhhmmmmmmm.....

Oh in all my goofing around Cass I did forget to mention how lovely that looks. Not only beautifully set up for the creatures but a real show piece in your home. Great job hon done by you and Rick! Was that built from scratch or existing stuff you rehabbed into herp enclosures (you may well have told us this already but my mind is shot....breeding season...cold meds....PMS...who the heck knows anymore LOL)

I don't know if you're into lizards (and I can't really tell the dimensions of that just by looking at it), but Blue Tongued Skinks are super cute and, from what I hear, VERY intelligent :) I'd love to have one some day. If it's a snake you're after, and if that enclosure's big enough (and you're willing to make the commitment)--Retics are BEAUTIFUL :-D

Nope. Built by Critter Condos, a SoCal custom cage manufacturer. They've built all three cages, Cleo's, Carmen's and um..."that big one". =D

What did you do? Tell everyone? And I thought I was special...jeesh!

Dang you Cass! I'm usually good about waiting, but I GOTTA know. So now I'll have to stalk you, tackle you to the ground and tickle you until you talk..... :evileye: :devilish:

Cass, can I come live in there? It would definitely be a conversation piece when guests come over and I press my goodies against the glass for them to ogle.

An adult albino burmese python, that's what! Introducing Lourdes! (formally pronounced as "lor-des" while in residence with Amazon Reptile and his former 'compatriot', now pronounced "lordz" using the UK pronunciation):
http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n...s/lourdes4.jpg

Weighing in at @25lb and a hair over 9' long, Lourdes is, according to the good folks at Amazon Reptile, 4-5 years old and regularly accompanied one Alice Cooper onstage during his shows . Our cage manufacturer, Eric at Critter Condos also told us that Lourdes has been used by a locally famous stripper (who's name escapes me but I'm sure Rick will remember what he said), although unfortunately I don't have any photographic evidence links to prove it (sorry boys). :P

Rick and I have always been smitten with albino burms and when Amazon Reptile put a notice on Lourdes' cage in their store that he was for sale, we jumped at the chance of owning this big, lovable boy (after spending *much* time reading about husbandry, cage requirements, life expectancy, size expectancy, etc. - yes, we did our homework).

So, last Friday, Eric delivered Lourdes' monster of a cage (8' x 3' x 2'), we installed two Helix RHPs, purchased by LLLReptile in Escondido (where we bumped into Tim and had to fess up) and brought him home last Saturday.

Snake Towah of Powah! (For those keeping score at home, that's Cleo on the top left, Jenson in the 10short on the shelf middle left and Carmen on the top right):

Being that he's still snoozing this morning...

...here are some other pics of our big boy with Rick. Enjoy! =D

Freakin' AWEsome, Cass!!! He's gorgeous!!! And a celebrity to boot... :giggle: Congrats, guys!!!

Oh he's gorgeous Cass! Congrats to you and Rick! How lovely that big cage is for him too...tons of room to stretch out by the look of it. It's wonderful that he's got a nice personality. That's a LOT of snake LOL.

he's beautiful!

Thanks guys! We've spent the week in awe of him, watching him slither about and still amazed that we now own a BIG YELLOW snake, lol...

It's one of the big pro's for us getting him. He is a bit cage aggressive, but it's easy to get him in and out and he's been used, obviously, on stage as well as in educational shows and we know that once out of his cage, he's a big lover boy. =D
