I am so excited, I am finally getting a candoia. I've been trying to get one since last fall after falling in love with Elle's lovey wee boas. A couple of days ago I saw Jerry Conway had a few Waigeos for sale and I called him and I picked out this beautiful female. I can't wait to get her.
Here she is!

So jealous I have been looking for a paulsoni forever their impossible to find captive bred:( Very pretty girl congrats!!
 
Oooh! She's so cute! I love her stripey-ness. Elle's collection has opened my eyes to a lot of gorgeous animals too. Once I thin out the corn 'herd', I'm planning on getting a few candoia (haven't decided on a species yet).
 
Those are such cool snakes!! Your new girl is beautiful, you must post more pictures! Congrats :D
 
Beautiful Candoia! I'm glad to see these under-appreciated animals getting more and more attention! :cool:
 
Thanks everyone for the nice comments, I am so happy I am finally getting one. After I got off the phone with Jerry I was jumping up in down I was so excited until I had to tell my boyfriend what I did lol.

I don't think they will change much, I think she should stay about that color but this is my first one so I guess I'll find out as she grows.

I will be taking plenty of pictures when she gets here. The Money order is in the mail now and I sent it priority so it will be there in 2 days and hopefully by the end of the week I will have her.

The others that Jerry had were even more stripey (perfect stripes down all the way down) which I loved but I liked how light colored she is the others were darker.

Very nice!!! So is she there yet? Lol.. Should be soon!

Yup she got here at 10:30am. She is so neat, I love the feel of her keeled scales, reminds me of a shark lol. I was expecting her to be small but she is about 4 years old and is about the size of my year old corns, I was expecting a little bit bigger than that lol.

I will up load pictures in a bit, I was using my Kodak and the batteries must be shot because I charged them and they died on me, so now I have to go get the Nikon, so pictures will be coming shortly.
 
Wow! She is very beautiful! I'm not very familiar with that type so I'm surprised how small she is. But wow a very stunning snake indeed! Congrats!!!
