    Meet Gregg!



    Just got him in today. He's a 100% het albino.

    I'll give him some time to acclimate, then take him out for some photos.

    Is the tub too small for him? I built my rack not expecting to have any snakes this large for some time, but he was too good a deal to pass up.
    I’m not gonna let them catch me, no

    Gregg is a handsome fella! I'm not really good with sizes for larger BP's, but it looks like it should be fine once he settles into his enclosure and starts using his hide.


    I'd also recommend ditching that dial thermometer (or hygrometer - can't tell) and get a digital one like AcuRite or one similar.

    Good catch!

    Yeah, it's a hygrometer. I'm getting a better one soon, but I blew all my cash getting 2 digital thermometers for each tub in my rack, so I have to wait a bit to get some hygrometers. The dial ones will work for the time being.

    Hahahaha! I'm such a dolt! I didn't look THAT closely at the red bowl (too busy admiring the snakey goodness) and assumed that was the hide! (Homer Simpson moment!)

    Haha, well, in all honesty I wasn't expecting him to be this big! The hide I had for him wound up being much too small, so I'm trying to come up with something that works. Right now I have a shoebox in there for him

    Nice snake you got their. I would dish the big bowl get a big hide, and give him a smaller water dish.
