i have been really sick since wednesday so i dident get to give him the tour... but because my girlfriend knows probably more about the snakes then me i let her give the tour...
she said the judge and his family were VARY impressed with the way i have my facility setup... he said he was expecting the building to have an oder, but i use air purifiers through the entire building... so he liked that feature right away... he thought my rat area was vary cool... i had a friend that closed his petshop a few years back and he sold me all the cages for cost... so my rats have a large display with a lid that you see in a petshop holding a rabbit or something... and then i have all the rodent cages that have tubes going all over the place... its about 6 feet tall and 7-8 feet wide... it looks cool and provides the rats a nice area for exercise but it is such a pain to clean... then he got to looking at the snakes... she showed him the boas first and she said he held about everyone... and he thought they were really cool and thought they were all in vary nice cages... i keep the boas in Neodishea cages... then she showed him the GTP's and she said he couldent believe how beautiful they were... he had no idea that a snake could color out like that... she said the GTP's really stole the show, but you gotta admit when it comes to looks, they are probably the best in show... in fact he asked if he could have one of my female GTP's and my GF said she just kinda laughed and told him that its a 50k snake and i would shoot her if she gave it away...
so he dident get to take a snake home but he did get a nice history lesson about the snakes... and she used most of the ideas Gray recommended in his previous post... thanks Gray
