Finally getting a BTS!

[jclaiborne]

Great pics again! The BTS looks so chill in the second pic (and HUGE! lol). I ended up going with #3. The seller said they were originally imports, but they have been with him for 5 months and are healthy. He also said that #3 is better looking in person and is a little more outgoing than the other one.

I feel very lucky to have gotten him for such a good price. The same seller had these 2 listed a month ago for $275 each, but he is going on a long trip and wants to downsize (hence the price drop). He will be shipped on Monday or Tuesday next week.

I will be using a CB70 tub setup for temporary housing, but plan on ordering the boamaster cage for his permanent setup.

Thanks again for your help / advice!

Awesome! So glad you found one you liked. They can be very chill for the most part. Being that yours is an import give it a little time to setting without disturbing it. I have found that my female can sometimes be a little hand shy at first, and she has been in my care for 2 years. So instead of just going in and grabbing your bluey put your hand flat in the cage in front of it and let it get use to you and your scent for at least the first few interactions, then as it stops backing away from your hand, you can start scooping it up.
