Then again did we really ever have it? :):roflmao: These are pics from my cell so they aren't that great. I didn't have my computer with me at Dad's to upload images so I will have to do that later. We went for corns but didn't see very many but this girl caught my eye the first 10 times around so I got her on the 11th..Molly the 2007 Normal Motley

So much for only having corns!!! And Bella looks like she could lay any day..she has gained 5 grams in 3 days and is swollen at the vent!!
 
I"M SO JELOUS OF YOUR BRB!!!!! hes the most itty bitty cutest ever!!

...ahem... I mean... what lovely pickups! you have such good taste in animals. That Rat snake is also truly striking! just beautiful.
I cant wait to see how they grow, please keep us updated! congrats. :D
 
Yup I'm not sure if you ever did have it LOL you lost your mind with the first corn. What was the first one anyway?

Molly is a very pretty girl, and Picasso is awesome :D congrats in the new additions. I can't wait till we have our Expo in August so us Pacific NW Cornz people can meet up.
 
You need an intervention!!

What locality is Sinbad?

I've never heard of that kind of rat snake!!
 
Very nice....blame poor us! *giggles*
Nice pickups. Welcome to the world of postage stamp herp collecting.
Thanks to one vendor who let me hold a new herp...now I have to have a Leachi gecko to survive life. LOL!
 
Very nice Gini!! I especially like Picasso. I've always wanted a pair of those, but never bought any. Glad you had a good trip. Have a safe drive home!
 
I'm sorry to be the rusty wheel but I have to say something. And I am sure I am speaking for others here too! Gini, you have accumulated alot of snakes recentally. ALOT of snakes. Now corns I can see but did you do any research PREVIOUS to going to the show on Diones, BRBs, or Rosy Boas? Any???? At all? I mean we are all guilty of getting an impulse buy. And before people jump on me I will say I am guilty of impulse buys AND getting in a little over my head. Hence my current situation. BUT Gini I am afraid you will get too many snakes to fast try to breed them past a point you can handle it. I guess all I am saying is please be careful. Don't end up like someone who has more than they bargained for.

The show could of been better, wish there were more corns, haha Ill have to vend a table to save the day, better then the guy selling windows and gutters at one table HAHA I prefer reptiles at my reptile show, not go window shopping XD
 
Seems like she knows what she is doing to me. Not too difficult to provide a proper setup.
I'm more than sure she knows what she is doing. She is an adult not a CHILD and can make her own choices.

Beautiful animals Gini, I'd love to see pictures of them in their MORE THAN ADEQUATE housing when they are all settled in. :D
 
I understand Josh. BUT everyone regardless of age or maturity can burn out, and then the animals suffer. I am an excellent keeper and my animals get great care BUT becaus eof my current situation I am spread very thin to give them proper care. And have you researched Diones rats or BRBs? Diones can be very difficult to keep because they can be difficult feeders and very sensative to changes in temps and humidity. They are also prone to stress. BRBs are another whole ball park I won't get into.
 
Wow! Gorgeous pick-ups! I am DEFINITELY jealous of your BRB! Stunning! I simply can't wait to see more pictures of it :)

:cheers:
 
Nothing she listed is anything that I don;t think she could handle. Give someone 30 minutes on the internet and about $40 and they could make a tub setup that any one of those animals would thrive in.

I am not going to hijack her thread any longer, I'm sure someone else will gladly jump in here and defend her (not that she needs anyone to).

By David, enjoy CONSTANTLY being the rusty wheel.

Josh, again I know FOR A FACT! That people feel the same way because 2 people from this site texted me today about it! Josh, I have a right to an opinion and I am letting it out. It takes more than 30minutes on the internet. And I could go out now and buy a set up to house O.moellendorffi (100 flower ratsnake) and read online articles for an hour and I still would not be ready! The point is I feel like Gini may be in for a suprise when that BRB is an adult and nasty, or when that Diones stops eating and developes skin blisters. If Gini wants to contact me I will gladly talk to her on the phone about this and listen to what she has to say. A person to person chat is always good.

I agree that there can be surprises as they grow...I just imagine she'd be better off contacting someone who actually KEEPS these snakes. You know....someone more educated about them than...you?

Ok, Im really done now.
Gini, I infinitely apologize for jacking your thread. Again those are gorgeous animals.
