Things came a bit earlier than expected.

It turns out for our schedules today was the best time to purchase a snake, and the local breeder had one left over from last fall. So I'm the proud new owner of a hypo tangerine male hondo. I'll post pictures later if anybody wants to see him.

I'm pretty sure that he is at least partially Honduran because the typical M shaped band on the chin. I was told he is a pure Honduran, and I see no reason to suspect otherwise at the moment.

As far as the heating pad, I ended up turning it down even more. The warm side at the mulch level last night was 77F, and we had the apartment cooler than normal. I think at the glass the temp is closer to 87F, which is probably alot safer than the previous 92F I was going for.

I feel like a member of the club now. I'm very happy.
