And so it begins...

[purepearl]

So I acquired my first BP this week... a little unexpectedly, but its all good. So some backstory - I've had a Corn for a while now, and had been doing some research on Balls, and was planning on getting one in Daytona in August.

I work for the local Fire Department, and one of our stations went on a call for a lady who was losing her mind about the "Giant Boa" in her apartment. When I walk into work later that morning the first thing my supervisor says to me (knowing Im the "snake girl") is "Station 42 has a Boa, you should take it!"... Well, I was skeptical it was a Boa anyway, so I texted the station for pictures, and said that I wasn't interested if it was indeed a Boa, a Burm, or a Retic (not that Ive got the permits for the last 2 anyway), but if it happened to be a ball python (yeah, right), that Id consider it.... sure enough, pictures roll in and this is what I see...



And come to find out, if I didn't take her FWC was going to come and destroy her... So, I said Id take her. *Sigh*... Shes a pretty little thing. She had some pretty bad stuck shed and she is SKINNYYYY, but we're working on getting that shed off, and she ate like a horse for me the other night, so I think we're on the right track. She might be the sweetest thing ever, very inquisitive and doesn't have any problems hanging all over me. She doesn't have a name yet, still trying to figure out what fits her, but Im thrilled that I could add this little goober to the family.
