Caesar progression thread.

[AbsoluteApril]

Caesar is looking nice! One of these days he'll start filling out haha He's a cute little noodle.
I'd avoid Prehistoric Pets if I were you but that is based on my observations when I used to live by the Fountain Valley store through the late 90s. Just my personal opinion.
Another mass producer you might consider (although others may caution against) is NERD. I know you already contacted BClark and he would be another I would say is okay and makes some nice stuff.
Did you check over on reptileinsider for your BC needs? Lots of locality specific boa hobby breeders on that site.
Good luck in your search!

What is bad about Prehistoric Pets? Do tell!!

As for ReptilInsider, yeah I've been a member over there since like 2012 but its kind of dead. I have checked with a few people over there but nothing grabs me. Only real interest is in a F2 female Iquitos from a gal I know who imports them from Peru. They come from grandparents who were caught 30 miles outside Iquitos years ago. They come with CITES and lineage paperwork but she is only selling pairs right now. I might bug her more for the female I really like but right now I don't have the cages available as the 3 T8s wont be here til Wednesday and then they need a week or 2 to seal. I also need to pony up the $600+ for them. And I'm also debating on another SD retic lol. Tough decision.

And thanks. Caesar is pretty awesome. Great personality and best of all, he doesn't piss on me or outside the cage haha. He seems to have slowed down on growing and being hungry so this might be a good sign haha.

There is so really great mainland stuff that I really want. Shane Castello has some amazing stuff and is local. I'm just not in a position to house and care for a mainland. My dream snake, Sunfire OGS.

Yeah I'm almost ready to bite the bullet for a male mainland pied since there is no SD pieds made yet. Them and Cows are my favorite. And yeah I've checked out Shanes stuff. Nice stuff.

WOW - he's looking great John

Yeah, I've PM'd Jay at Prehistoric pets and also Daniel Solis at Reptile Ave. We'll see what they have to say although I imagine Prehistoric Pets is going to be along the lines of Bob Clark for pricing. I got time to kill anyways as my 3 T8s are scheduled to arrive this Wednesday and then I'll have to let the Lexel cure on them for a week or two before Luna, Rango and Dottie into them. But who knows, I might try and see if I can sweet talk a gal I was talking to who has 2016 F2 Iquitos Peruvians that she imports straight from a breeder in Peru who collected the parents 30 miles outside Iquitos and they have all the CITES and lineage papers to go with them. She has a female that I really want but she only sells pairs right now but she looks female heavy so maybe I can sweet talk her but I'll worry about that after I have the extra cages ready. So technically they are a 'new' bloodline but guaranteed to be Iquitos Peruvians.

You get your enclosures today?

Yup got them set up and letting the Lexel dry in them. The doors will be here tomorrow as Ali was hustling to get my order finished as I placed an order for a single T8 and stand last week so they wanted to ship those out with my 2 T8s I ordered last month. I got a post up on it with a pic. Nothing epic but I'm pretty happy. Will be even happier when I get my 3 or 4 T25s

Lol got a pic of the T8s next to the T10s in general herping forum. Not going to see the T25s until probably winter. Those are a much larger chunk of change lol.

AP pages says they need freight to ship? I don't even want to think what that will cost to ship.
