    Talking Hello from a soon to be bp owner!

    Hello! I'm from WV, and I'm about to adopt a normal bp from a friend. He's about 6 months old and a little on the small side because they had trouble getting him to feed for a while. I've been to her house and fed him every 7-10 days or so for almost 2 months, and he has eaten every time for me. I love this little guy already, and am so excited about bringing him home! We got a jungle carpet python last weekend, he's a holdback that is a year and a half old. Gorgeous, but a little nippy because he hadn't been handled much. Since I'm a beginner, I don't handle him much. I handle Sidney (the normal bp) on a regular basis (during cage cleanings in between feedings) and he has never bitten or even struck at anyone. Anyhoo, just wanted to say hello and introduce myself a little!

    As soon as I actually get Sidney I'll get some good pics of him, and I'll figure out how to upload them then! In the meantime, my fb page is www.facebook.com/beckygoings feel free to add me on there, I have pics of our Jungle on there.
