    That's a great looking IJ, Pat! Who produced him?

    I actually have no idea of her bloodline.

    She was not feeding in a petstore down in LA, and she was basically on "clearance".

    Most of my collection is a rescue type operation (except for some awesome 8Ball pythons)

    Actually, I don't think it's pure IJ. It looks more like an integrade. You should see if you can find out where it came from to see if it's pure.

    Nice looking and all, but I really don't think it's pure IJ.

    Shes already ate twice, once just a small mouse to see if she would actually take it, then a weaned rat. She ate like a champ!

    Well, I don't have any plans on breeding her so I'm not too worried

    Awesome to hear!

    I got a female Bp from a pet store that would never eat for them...Took her home and she hasn't refused a meal sense...

    Silly Pet Stores :rolleyes:

    I agree that, with no background you can never be sure. I don't agree that she's not 100% IJ. I've seen quite a few of them and they can be very variable. What makes you think that she's an integrade?

    Either way, you're a lucky man, Pat! I'm a confirmed dark-sider and love IJs. Good luck with her and be sure to post more pics :)

    I've seen a few purebred IJs that had different colours, which is not unusual for this species, but the pattern on that one is sort of unusual.

    The IJs I've seen had patterns that were similar. This one is different from them.

    What store did it come from?

    Not too shabby Pat!! :D

    Nice looking IJ! While it is not a 100% way to be sure it is without breeder background, I do think it is an IJ. I have seen a few and produced quite a few in my time so I think I know what I am looking at. :rolleyes:

    Great looking IJ! :O

    Love seeing more and more carpet keepers around. They really are a wonderful animal to keep. And as far as husbandry is concerned much easier than anything else that I keep!

    I'd love to see some more pictures of this beauty!!

    super cool dude that works there, and i dont really wanna talk price, but lets just say, if you had a hundred one dollar bills, it would be cool.

    Yeah she is soooo gentle. I was almost expecting a super nippy little witch at first, but quite the opposite!

    Beautiful Girl! I love the last photo. I love the lip and nose markings. You are so lucky that she is so gentle. We are still working with our JCP. We made progress, but I took two bites yesterday!

    Congrats!!!
