I am happy to report that I received my new male BEL today. He hatched in October, 2012 and weighs about 350 grams. Such a beautiful snake! I bought him from Charlton Kangas of Kangas Kritters in California and I cannot say enough good things about Charlton. I've been looking for a nice BEL for awhile (at first I only wanted a female, but changed my mind) and of the several breeders I contacted around the country, Charlton was by far the most cordial and helpful. He patiently answered all my questions and was simply an extremely polite, nice guy to deal with. His prices are quite reasonable too. I was a little worried about shipping the snake all the way across the country......I live in NC......but Charlton assured me it wouldn't be a problem. He was right. FedEx delivered my BEL right on time early this morning and he is even better looking than Charlton described. Excellent shape, and appears to be in good health. Charlton is a great guy to do business with.
