I answered a post on craigslist for a "free 13ft Albino Burmese just come pic him up".I decided for some reason it was my duty to get it before "one of those" got it because "it would be cool".

I show up about 1 hour later and there he is OUTSIDE in some kind of large wire bird cage,with a "sheet to keep him warm" and half of an old plastic dog kennel as protection.As far as a heat source goes,he had..................ambient temperature.Not a drop of water to be found.He had recently had a shed and it was all over the floor in about 100 flaky pieces,the rest is still stuck in pieces all over him.He's dirty....I think.I got him here and in the tub with some kinda warm water tryin to raise his temp and see if any of the skin will soak off.He's hissing a bunch,and the only good thing I can say about that is his breathing sounds strong and un-ubstructed,I don't see any bubbles or stuff around his nose or mouth yet.I don't know if it's because he's warming up or I just didn't notice in my rush to get him home,he's got a lot of pink on him.He seems to be moving OK,and his eyes are clear and he's checking out everything with his tongue flicking away and doesn't seem TOO skinny.I'm pretty sure he's not 13ft either he's smaller than my female and she's just over 12,he may be 9 or 10'.I have attached some before pics here for you guys, just to see what you guys think.Thanx for reading my novel!OH and from here on out he will be known as Ty Webb!~
