    Guess who's coming to dinner?

    Here is what's in the works.

    I've notched things up steadily since the first purchase (Royal) for my son.

    I love my locality boa and my mixey/mutt coastal carpet.

    This is the last addition and should fulfill the rest of my reptile desires.




    No set delivery date yet, however at some point in the next 3 weeks I will have a 3 month old, male, SD/Dwarf Tiger 100% Het Snow (Purple Albino & Anery) Reticulated Python.

    Mum is fully grown and 10' long. Pops is adult and 5' long. The well respected breeder tells me I should expect a MAX size of 7'-9'. I am prepared for 10-11' and have a few options if things end up on the overly large side. I suspect with the proper feeding procedures I'll engage in, and the percentages of SD and Dwarf I should have no issues.

    Special thanks to Cody (Reptile Experts) for some behind the scenes coaching. He is a truly kind and helpful individual and an excellent resource on this board.

    Thanks,

    I knew you'd be first LOL!

    I was going to PM you but figured I'd just announce it.

    I finally got my PhotoBucket situation squared away so I can post pictures again.

    Let me know if you have any tips. Got my hooks, my long tongs, my paper towel roll, my whiskey and probably some flowers for my wife!

    Thanks bud,

    Hope I didn't let you down,,,, I was very close to a locality coastal or Bredli.

    If everything specs out the way I want here this should be the perfect animal.

    Perfect to switch for variety and an interesting addition.

    @ Gio- I can't kid you, if it wasn't for those teeth I'd have a SD retic. I think they have the sweetest paint jobs of any snake. I'm still contemplating adding one. Yours is a real beauty.
