    Show pick ups

    Hi everyone,
    I went to the show (San Jose Herp Expo) thinking I would buy one snake. I ended up with two snakes and a colony of mice. Sigh.

    My first aqcuisition is a Bahia de LA Rosy boa from East Bay Vivarium. She's at 18 grams and very very cute. $60, not bad I think. I don't know the market price for these but I think I got a good deal?
    She's a little dehydrated from the show, but drank like a fish when I put her in the tub.



    The second snake is a candy cane corn snake that was a non feeder from Lowbelly Reptiles. The non feeders were for $5 a piece. Hopefully I can work a miracle.
    Sorry for the crappy image. I wanted to let the little fella settle in.



    And finally the colony of mice from East Bay Vivarium... I started a colony a week ago and here I am. I couldn't resist buying the lab cage with these mice. $20 for the cage and a group of 1.4
    You can't really see them. But they're about 3 months old.

    Nice additions, for that non-feeder you can try to boil the pinky and put him with the pinky in a small deli cup (I usually put it in a dark place). << That has worked for me, there are other methods, but this is the only one I have tried.

    Congrats on the new additions

    Thanks! I'm going to try it in a few days... This one is apparently 6 weeks old.
