So I got my first BP today. My daughter and I drove up to Birmingham and she got to pick him out. I wanted to get a 2011 but she like this one the best. He's been eating live fuzzy mice so I have to figure out how to get him onto frozen rats. Right now he is in a 10gl tank. When he outgrows that, I already have a 36" Neodeshia here for him. They said he is a Pastel but he looks normal to me. He is a mover, been exploring this tank all day and hasn't gone into his hides once. The place we got him from kept him a "Kritter Keeper" that didn't have a hide so I guess he's not use to them. I also got my thermostats so everything in the tank is going great. Here are a few pics.
