New pick ups from Iowa show (DUW)

[pbjtime8908]

went to the iowa show today in Des Moines and had a blast. saw a bunch of cool animals and got to hold a blue tongued skink which was kinda neat. saw some members from here at the show which was a first lol. i went looking for a mojave female and made probably 10 laps around the place looking at everything but i only saw 1 throughout the whole thing i was there for, and she was just outta my price range with everything else i was getting. but here are pics of everything we picked up.

this is my pastel female, Rosalba. she's a 2010 girl and weighs in at 425g. she's a little skittish for a minute but then gets to moving all over the place and didnt wanna really stay still for pics.







i got this female Hypo boa, Castrina, weighing in at 91g, from SW reptiles. i've been wanting to get a boa for a little bit now but didnt plan on getting one so soon but she was pretty cheap and i just fell in love with her so i had to have her. as you can imaging she was pretty wiggly too but i got a few snaps.








my roommate got this male pastel 100% het vpi axanthic, Paxley, weighing in at 819g, also from SW Reptiles.










i also picked up the start of a rat colony of 1.3. i got a seperate cage for each female so that i can space out the births a little and not end up with a bunch of rats all one size.

thnx for looking.

he had a lot of awesome animals there that looked really good. the one that i really wanted was a HUGE hog island female that just looked so aggressive with its really dark coloring and specks all over it. she was pretty cheap too but i just dont have the room for that ATM or i would have definitely brought her home.

nice pick-ups! your gonna have fun with that boa, theyre amazing

she's a sweet heart lol. i was checking temps this morning and when i put my hand in her tub she hissed at me. it was a little different then a bp hiss though because i actually got to see her open her mouth when she did it, all my bps hide their heads when they hiss lol.

very nice pick ups like regular pastel and boa

i went looking for a either a spider female or mojave female but couldnt find any i liked and decided i really did need the pastel lol. and the boa was kinda the icing on the cake for the whole thing lol

They look good!

It was nice meeting you too!

glad i stopped and talked to you two, its nice to put a face to the name once in awhile. we woulda stayed a little longer but we had a 3 hr drive home and i still had to get some sleep before work lol.

kind of off-topic, but what kind of car are you in? i know that dash, but i cant remember what it is and its really bugging me lol

like drkness said its his 03 duramax, it'll probably end up being the backdrop for a lot of my pics lol.

Congrats, nice pick-ups.

thnx!
