Is the asking price for this snake! This might be the most expensive animal I have ever held. She is for sale at Repticon, Orlando, by Ballroom Pythons.
Yikes!
Oh, the rest of the show. I saw a cool lizard called a Gargoyle Gecko that could jump on command. There were lots of lizards, tons of balls and boas, and milksnakes, interestingly, seemed to dominate the coubrids. Some kings, Calis and mountains, some corns, but nothing unusual, and a very wide variety of milks. Lots of spiders and frogs and scorpions and salamanders.
I bought three big hides for my new cages, if they ever get here. I had Maizey model them. I told her, if you're going to starve yourself, you may as well be a model. (Refused her mouse last night for the first time since November...)
So, back to the Ball- I think this morph is very, very new and there are only a couple of these. Calico. She was very sweet. Aren't they all? Why did the guy let me hold her?? Obviously, I wasn't going to be able to buy her. Still- I appreciated it.
A vendor had a snake stolen while we were there. Nice.
Saw Jake the Snake and his giant python. Woo hoo. He didn't seem really into it.
The guy I bought Zee from had a bunch of WC Viper Boas ranging from very small to I don't know, 200 grams? How big do they get? He said they were eating great, but probably just because of their hideous attitudes, and he was selling them at a great price. They were sort of cool looking. They looked venomous and angry. The younger ones were pretty and striped, the older ones were flat muddy black. But still cool.
