New Addition

[Kinra]

yea ive noticed all of a sudden theres a bunch of ppl posting about dumerils. up until earlier this month i hadnt heard anything about them, started looking into them and then boom, half a dozen ppl have new dumerils, including myself .

my dumeril is in shed and just ate so i definitely cant mess with her which is killing me but when i first took her outta the bag and was setting her up she seemed pretty calm and inquisitive about everything so im really looking forward to her.

i went to a pet store and they had a dumeril of similar size to the one you just got and i was really thinking bout getting it but decided that was a bad idea. good luck with your new dumeril.

Lol, one of the things I've noticed is that we seem to do things almost as a group. I've noticed a lot of people seem to get the same morph around the same time. I think this site is the problem. Someone will post an amazing picture and people will think I need one of those!

I'm trying to let my girl settle in, the only reason I took pictures is because she left a nice mess in the tub shortly after I put her in it. >_<

She is beautiful, congrats!

Thank you!

now you just have to go back and get the male!

Haha, I will probably wait on the male. I think there is a good chance all of the ones he has are related and I'd like an unrelated pair.

She's gorgeous! Congratulations! I can't wait for my new girl to get here in a few days. I just hope she doesn't musk on me like your girl did. Can't wait to see more of her!

Thank you. I hope your's doesn't musk on you either (it smells nasty), I can't wait to see pictures of yours.

Gorgeous Dumerils!! Her pattern seems less busy along her back than most - very unusual and very pretty! She certainly likes her water bowl, lol!

....Man....I wish our petstore would get some of these more unusual snakies in. All they ever have is corns and the occasional milk and/BP. And they do a nice job with their reptiles so I'd be interested sometimes. But no luck. ....bummer for me....

Thanks! She does seem to love the water bowl, so much so that I think I'm going to buy a tub to put in her tank as a water dish instead of the smaller bowl I have. I honestly think she was drinking at one point so that if she felt the need to she could pee on me, but that might be giving her too much credit.

I love and hate having a really nice specialty reptile store within driving distance because while it's nice to have a good supplier locally it's hard to resist temptation not to bring anything home with me. I did contemplate buying her before I went to the store but I was really hoping I could resist. So it's both a blessing and a curse.
