"new" to GTPs......

xNeViNx Jun 27, 2004 07:03 PM

i say "new", and not new, because ive been planning on getting one since last summer, and i used to post questions on this forum. i dicided to start a little lower on the tree snake ladder. i have 2 amazon tree boas, and there doing beautifully. so im thinking that its time for me to get a GTP. what do you all think? also, i know you cant tell the adult colors, and its only a guess, but i really want, and always have wanted the very natrual color(green with blue or purple stripes). who do you all think would be a good person to go to for the best chances of those colors? one other thing, i havent quite found any care sheets giving me the size inclosure i truely need. i have a 2' home made cube enclosure. would that be ok?
thanx soo much
nevin

Yeah Nevin you should deff get one. I think many people reccomend a 24" cube but I also think a lot of people like them to be a little longer for the thermal gradient. Just buy a mainland type and you will probably get the color you desire. I don't think that starting with amazons was absolutley necessary but I guess it may have helped you in determing that you did really want one. I think I'm gettin a BRB soon!

they dont change nearly as much as GTPs but as adults there colors are absolutly beautiful.
thank you both
