Went to the hamburg show yesterday...

...with intention's of picking up a normal female BRB, i had found on here in the classified's. Just so happens the vendor was a no show.

Anyways Hamburg doesn't really ever offer much for the Rainbow fans. Its seems always to just be an over stocked morph fest of ball pythons, although i enjoy looking at them. I had only seen one hypo brb there in the last two years and through every show there usually less rainbows then i have fingers (in all, including neonates). Kinda bummed thinking the trip was a wasted hour and a half ride, i walked the rows looking at what others had. Came across three BRB's about the size/age i would be looking for. Mainly just looking pair my near 2 year old male with maybe in the future. 2 of the three were males so they were out of the question. The female i ended up taking home though She's a nice rust orange CB Het Anery eclipse phase about 5ft long. I got her from "T" of Striking Exotics out of Long Island, NY. I know the pics aren't the best, but its supposed to be nice weather coming up here in PA so better pictures are sure to come, not to worry. Just excited and had to share the news.

Speaking of new surroundings though, I will have my custom enclosures finished up sometime next weekend so I'll be sure to share them as well along with all over update. 40Lx24Dx16H

Grats on picking up another BRB. I'm not sure how you built your custom enclosure, but make sure that any glues or sealants are cured completely before you put any animals in it.

Yeah borat! lol definitely a fan. I feed on tuesdays and Wednesdays to my other snakes most of the time, so i offered her a FT medium rat. She took it like a champ. Sorry for the [bleep]ty cellphone quality, not much better then the pics.
