    New little boa :)

    So...we've been researching snakes for quite awhile now. My 6 year old has some severe cat and dog allergies so I promised her a "non furry" pet. I was thinking Ball Python but right after Thanksgiving our little pet store got 5 Sandboas in. I had told my kids that it would be after Christmas before we got anything. When we went back this week they still had the little guys! So...meet Dorito! When a 4 and 6 year old name the pets they end up with funny names sometimes

    I'm sorry the pictures are so big! I can't figure out how to resize them!

    Cool! He's a looker! Out of curiosity, what are you using to heat the tank?

    We have a small heat lamp over the left side of his tank. I talked to the breeder of this little guy on the phone after I purchased him from the pet store and then set my tank up the way he suggested. Does anyone else here keep sandboa's? I was set on going with aspen bedding and then the breeder told me not to and that he (Dorito) would like the sand better.

    Thanks y'all

    I've never personally met one of those guys. But I have watched them in the sand, pretty cool to watch. Congrats!
