    Hahaha. I hear ya. I think it happens to many of us in this hobby. We truly believe we'll be done after "one more". And we intend to be. But since their care and upkeep really is simple, we realize, ok, I can safely and responsibly add one more....

    You're light years away from somebody I "worry" about getting in over your head. I see it with some folks, but you ain't one. I know with 100% certainty your animals are well cared for and any new additions will be as well.

    I think it is so cool that you are on board with the new additions that have been added. I was blessed that my other half supported my hobby. While none were his snakes, he found them interesting, including how each had their own personality. He always helped me, including handling, which meant at lot to me. And you’ve added one cool addition of your own in Izzy...love her. I’m a big fan of the boas, though you’d never know it by the number of bp’s I added this year.

    One thing I really like about the snake hobby is that the people in it can be much more relaxed. Gather up the cash for the equipment, plus the the price of the snake, and a new addition can usually be tucked in somewhere....

    I also keep budgies, and for the most part, parrot ownership is NOT like that. The budgie/finch/canary scene is fairly easy-going, but as soon as people get into the larger birds, the expense, the noise, the mess, and the destruction is no joke. Owners also end up guilt racked - they bought a bird instead of going to a rescue (how dare you! - there is so much finger pointing), or they take on a demanding, emotional animal that isn't ever going to adapt well to their household, and trying to make good on that misake is making everyone crazy.

    "I got him from Tommy at TC Reptile.

    http://tcreptile.com

    https://www.facebook.com/TCReptile

    I got in touch with him because of the amount of Dwarf Species he breeds. Very knowledgeable and seems like a real nice guy. I didn't expect to end up with a BCC, dwarf or not. I didn't even know Venezuelan BCC's existed until I spoke with him."


    Congrats! TC Reptile was a good choice.

    Tommy has, or has had several lines that stemmed from Gus Renfro's work.

    I haven't checked the web page in a long time. It's nice to see he's still producing beautiful, locality boas!

    Thank you Gio. Yes, I couldn't remember who he said he bought the line from, but that sounds right, Gus Renfro. I can also ask him for clarification.

    He seems to do some real oddball stuff as well as really know his lines well and what he is talking about. I also like that he knows the animals and isn't a huge breeder. I'll be able to review fully when I get Feliz, but so far, the experience has been very positive.

    I love that look. Nice size, shape, pattern and color. I can see why you got him.

    Thanks Godzilla78! I can't argue with the look, but his small adult size and puppy dog temperament made the decision easy. This Dwarf Rio Bravo Venezuelan Line of BCC is supposedly known for those traits exactly; small size and incredibly calm demeanor. The breeder has many boas and many different lines. He says these are by far the calmest he breeds. Even right from birth, everyone of this litter was handleable he said, but still had a great feed response.

    I think he's stunning though and cannot wait to see that amazing red tail at size!

    If his personality is anything as advertised, he's going to steal my, and Katie's, hearts, pretty quick. Overall, just seems like a really cool dude. I don't think we will be disappointed.

    Wow, great pick up. The tail on that guy is an eye grabber. You do have great taste in animals.
