Platty Boy

Thanks Kizno....I did save my pennies for him lol If I managed to find a Mojave female, that pairing would produce the blue eyed leucistics that I showed you.

they looked amazing just a shame there £600. good luck finding one. and if i still havent got a snake i think you should hold onto one of the babys for me :]

Beautiful babies Netty. I can't get them (or any spiders) cause Tim don't like them. He grew up down south and said he's seen enough that he don't want none! That pie-bald and the blue eyed other one though... I had never seen white snakes before. When I was 13 I used to go over to a friends house, he owned two boa constrictors, they were huge!!! he had built tanks that wrapped around the walls, two walls per tank, and he used to have us sit down and he would drape them on us. (They were to heavey for us to hold standing at that age) It was such a great experience, They were gorgeous, huge and warmish. Just awesome! I don't even want to know how much $ he put into those two, makes my spending for my betta look like pennies!

This is the most recent pic of him a couple of weeks ago. Would definately do mates rates for you

Don't think I would cope with the large Boas. We did have two Brazillian Rainbow Boas but they were sold last year so we could concentrate on the geckos more.

one of my mums friend used to have a 10foot boa but had to get rid of it when he had a kid because couldnt get it out enough and was worrined about his kid with it.

his markins are amazing. thanks netty i still have to convince my mum first though lol

Well she's welcome to contact both me or Van if she has any concerns

Royal Pythons make great first snakes too as they're so laid back and easy to handle and like Van said you can pick up a normal for anywhere from £50. That's what I paid for my female.

lol no matter what i say to her she doesnt listen.
yh i was doing a bit of reading on them and saw that come up alot that there good to handle and i bet they would be good to threaten my 5 year old bro with if he was getting on my nerves lol.

LOL....now that would be mean. I would think most 5 year olds would probably scare the snake more

Yup, I do believe that or your mom screaming bloody murder when she found the snake somewhere it did not belong! Be nice to the animals! THAT is probably her main reason for saying no, afraid she might find it in her bed or shoes or such!

lol your proberly right netty hes a netter he would proberly run at it with plastic swords lol. thats the reason she said know becuse she dont want it to bit my bro and she sasid because they have saminella on them which can poison you they where the 2 reasons she said no.

There is a risk of salmonella with all reptiles which is why good hygiene is really important. So if you're one of those teenage boys thats allergic to water, that might be why your Mum is worried lol

Not to mention the 5 yr old who puts hand in cage, then hand in mouth! Five year olds are kind of allergic to washing up too, unless it's bath time- even then I have had some arguements with my children when they were that age!

im not alergic to water or anythink my mums just one of them people that is always really cautious. my bros used to be alergic to water but only if the drunk it it would upset there stomach but they dont have that any more. i know what you mean lol my bro hates baths and bits lol

Can you find a way to put a lock on the aquarium lid? That way you can assure your mom you will only take out the snake in your room with the door locked and all other times the snake is locked in the aquarium?

thats a good idear actually ill ask her if that will be ok tomorrow shes in bed now well she has been since 9 lol

What time is it there? It is just 3pm here in Alaska!

You can get locks for vivs with the glass sliding doors. Then just make sure the key is hidden.

Put it up way high, only take it out with the door closed and locked, same with putting it up. Maybe the furthest corner, as far back as you can reach on the top shelf of the closet if you have one?

i sounds good maby under my bed or somewhere he wouldnt look. ill ask my mum if it would be ok if i did that tomorrow thanks :]
