So, today is feeding day and I stop by my local pet shop for some mice, and as always see if they have any new adult ball pythons (these are owner surrenders), and lo and behold, there are two in one enclosure up front - I pop both as female. I get them to weigh them for me, one's over 1700 grams, the other is over 1100 grams. Then one of the guys tells me that there's one even bigger in the back, and goes and gets her for me - pops as female - and is 2154 grams.

I tell them to hold her, I'll be right back. Had to run to Walmart to get a tub, kitty litter pan and water bowl. I have a human heat pad that I'll use until I get my flexwatt in. I've used this one before and the lowest setting keeps them right at about 93 degrees.

I've also paid for the 1700 gram one for a friend of mine, and will be picking her up on Monday or Tuesday and shipping her out. I brought my probe sets and re-checked everyone, and the 1100 gram one is a male. The 1700 gram girl has a 3 inch healed dorsal burn, but otherwise appears to be very healthy.

But, this is the girl that I'm keeping! What do you think of her?
