Sunglows From Heaven

fgs Apr 26, 2007 04:11 PM

Last Sunday afternoon I received a call from Mike Madec of Isis Reptiles out of Ventura Ca. He told me of a pair of 2004 female Sunglows that he had. Before I knew it he had offered to lend the pair to me. I quickly got off the phone and worked up a written agreement. On Monday we finalized the agreement and by Wednesday morning I had the snakes in my possession.

They look fantastic. The larger female is the one shown in the photograph she is about 5 1/2 feet long and weighs about 9 lbs. The smaller one is about 5 feet long and weighs about 6 lbs.

To say that I was totally blown away by this generous offer would be an understatment.

The herp community continually surprises me of its trustworthyness and generosity.

Of which I am very proud to be a member....

Good luck with all of your seasons

Brian

It goes without saying that the longer you are in this hobby the more you will see how generous and friendly it is, it isn't all about business, but more about friends. Congrats.

That is one Awesome Sunglow. It is nice to see that People still do favors for one another,there rare and far between.. You seem like a Good Guy Brian and would more then likely do the same for someone else. Cheers to Boas and People that are really into them.
