    Slightly premature bragging

    I'm so excited, I can't wait until Sunday to brag about the new baby! By the end of sunday I'll have finished paying off and picked up a Type 2 Black Eye Anery w/Genetic Stripe Nicaraguan. Whew that's a mouthful lol.

    He's got a very mild kink, so his head is a bit canted to one side. His breeder is optimistic that he'll grow out of it, but he's still pet-only. He's also a snappy lil jerk, its so cute. I love baby snakes with attitude

    I'll definitely be taking plenty of my own photos of him, but for now here's one really amazing shot of him, taken by Mike Heinrich. Baby Kushiel was produced by Abby Malvestuto (Herpetological Girl)~

    Good luck with him and his attitude. My Nic is pure evil to this day.

    Yeah, Nics have attitude - best of luck! At least he'll stay a bit smaller for you...

    But he's a great looking baby!! Really nice pattern and the kink is barely noticable in the pic. Nice pickup for sure! Looking forward to more pics once you bring him home!

    At least one of his parents still has an attitude. I'm so spoiled lol, my friend's rescue "Nicaraguan" (he's a 6.5' male, so I'm assuming he's a hybrid. His coloring is exactly like a Nic though) is the biggest puppy dog ever, loves attention and is super sweet. I'm hoping this boy will at least chill out enough to be handled regularly. I have a 'snake-tamer' rep to maintain My first BP was a bloodthirsty baby, but mellowed right out after maybe 2 months with me, haha.

    Awesome pick up! My Nicaraguans tolerate handling very well

    He's home! I forgot what a teensy baby he is, holy cow! I'll set something up to take decent pics of him later. I wanted to let him settle in after the trip home, so I just snapped a couple shots. For such a supposedly snappy baby he sure didn't seem inclined to do more than rear back when I first took him out of his tub, lol. I'll see how he acts once he's gotten comfortable again though, haha.
