Finally, 1st Pit!...Hypo Stillwater Bull

FL_Herps Jul 28, 2007 11:53 AM

After much waiting, I finally got a hold of my first Pit... I went with a Female Out-crossed Hypomelanistic Stillwater Bullsnake from Rob Nimmo with Peace River Herps. (Who I highly, highly recommend.)

The first pic was taken once she went into shed, after she hatched on 7/9.
And the rest are from when she arrived on 7/24.

I am obviously VERY excited about her, and I may breed her when she is older. (She should turn out to be a pretty sharp looking adult.)

Hope you enjoy!

You got a real beauty there!

Thanks for posting the pics of the shipping box, insulation, etc.

Isn't getting snakes in the mail the BEST!!! It's better than XMAS!

Every time I was 'expecting', I was like kid waiting up for Santa or something, watching out the window, running out to meet the Fed-Ex guy at his truck, etc.

Man- now I feel like buying a snake, just so I've got something REALLY GOOD to expect in the mail!!!

Thanks, I'm glad you like her.

And yeah, waiting for snakes to come in the mail is always sooo exciting! I kept looking out the window like every 10 min! lol

Yeah, it took me a long time to decide which animal I was going to go with...
I'm happy to hear that you think I made a good choice!
