Well, if the little guy makes it, I guess you could call my little rescue pastel a Christmas gift. Even if he doesn't survive, I decided I would save my money as long as I had to to get a nice, healthy male pastel from a good source.

Also, I'm saving the money I got from selling a textbook (I won it in a raffle and ended up not needing it) to buy a nice adult female corn snake at the spring R.M. Reptile Expo, so I guess that could be seen as a late snakey gift.
