As of 30 minutes ago, I am now the proud owner of my very first BP! I am pretty sure that it is a male, but will be scheduling a visit to the vet sometime next week to get him checked up and also get a 100% verification on the gender. I was totally expecting him to come out of the box hissing and snapping after the long drive - but to my surprise he was totally chill!
He was super timid at first, but after holding him for a couple of minutes and stroking him gently - he calmed down and started poking around like bonkers. His little tongue flicking a mile a minute!
Took me forever to get him into the tank because he decided that going up my sleeve was a fantastic idea. Lol.
Any ways, here is the first picture of him! Sorry for the quality, took it with my phone and turned the flash off so not to disturb him as he gets use to his tank.
Growing up, my all time favorite book has always been "The Jungle Book" -- so my intense urge to name him Kaa, came as no surprise.
Hopefully he, really is a he lol. But he has a fat and long tail, and when I felt it, I felt what seemed like little bulges. I refuse to pop and probe since I've never done it before D;.
