    Our new addition (and awesome craigslist score)! PIC OVERLOAD!!!

    So, my husband always tells me stories about his first burm, a 10.5 foot albino burm who used to sleep with him on a heat pad.

    Now, I can't say I want a burm in MY bed, but I happened upon a little baby albino burm on craigslist. He was listed with a kingsnake (my husband's favorite type of snake), and I managed to score the burm AND the kingsnake, delivered, for 75 bucks.

    Right now the burm is just a lil one (about 2.5 feet), and here's the pics we snapped this evening. He's very calm and loves to be 'pet'.

    Sorry I went a little nuts with the photos:

    Nice looking little burm. Can't believe your husband used to sleep with his old burm.
    I'll push American, before I'll drive foreign.

    Don't argue with an idiot, they'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

    You guys are too funny!

    I haven't gotten any pics of the kingsnake yet, but I will take some today. He's a lot less willing to stay still for shots then the burm was, that's for sure!

    I will say, that even though I am not very into kings, this guy is a real looker.

    HA! Yes, the heat pad was at the foot of his bed.

    Back in his "single years", he would let the snake have free run of his bedroom.

    Sadly, the snake was STOLEN from him I think he's pretty bonkers to have let a snake sleep with him, but he's a pretty big guy, and I'm sure the snake didn't want to eat him.

    I'd be more worried about the snake peeing and pooping in the bed. They're not exactly discriminatory about where they let loose. Same with having a giant snake loose in my bedroom. Just....eww. LOL
