Why not another shop update and picture

Mickey_TLK Jan 23, 2005 05:13 PM

Well things are humming along here at the store. With the start of the new year, I have begun to update all of the dislays to what I had hoped for from the start.

Of course being a snake minded kinda guy, I had to start with the snake display. Since we opened the store, Ive only been able to get about 20% of our snake inventory represented on the floor. The rest have been housed in rack systems in the back (albino boas, hypos, ect, ect). Obviously this has done little to help is selling them.

We started with small 24" x 14" x 10" cages on the first run of 40. I plan to make 3ft and 4ft's next. We will also make some cool looking corner cages that are about 6ft tall for aboreals, to help keep the flow in the rooms.

I hope to have the whole project done by March, but who knows. This first stack should be ready to go when I get back from Florida, and get on the next one.

All and all it looks like it will be a nice season for us. We allready are starting to fill the incubator up, but sadly I dont expect to produce any boas yet again this season. I could try and breed the poss dh ghost girls, but figure its better to add weight one more season. Good luck to everyone else this season, Im sure we will see some very nice snakes never seen before.

Dave that albino looks killer. I still have a couple of his siblings here, and Im definately keeping one for myself. The colors are just so rich on that bloodline. Glad to hear they are doing well.
