i got my royal today, will upload a few shots that i got before i put him in his cage, unfortunatly i wanted a female 2010 baby but hardly anybody had 2010 babies and the poeple that did didn't have any females at all. the person that i bought him off was very good apart from not having any records of him, no feeding, no shedding, aparently a very good feeder, on defrosted small mice. the price was menat to be 60 but since i am 15 and young the guy sed that he would do it for 50 he is a normal het pied and e sed he would maybe have some females in sept so will try and persuade dad on that one. i am so excited. and thank you piers/blackecho for the cork bark, it looks really nice in the tank, although i had to cut it down. i love him so much, and the 2 weeks of no handling will be so hard. will get pics up soon. i now have to think of names, my mum came up with the name 'bullet' which i think is nice but will see over the next month about names. i think that is all i have to say for now...

thanks, it was so dificult, as i wanted a female my dad was like "y don't u just wait till sept and get a female then" but i wanted to get one now, me being impatient and all that, and the only reason i wanted a female was cuz all the reps i have are male, but i thought well it doesn't really matter what i get, so went for the male. i was so excited on the way, he kept rubbing against the plastic i just wanted to get him out and hold him but couldn't. i cannot wait for the two weeks to be over, luckily (not really) i have alot of exams this week so i will need to study every day so hopefully that will take my mind of him. i will upload pics soon and post them. |

Yeah I get you mate, may I ask why the 2 week wait?
Yeah I think he does look like that petrol tinge about himin the 2nd pic, theoretically young snakes do shed monthly, but you had no records of him? |

no, unfortunatly the guy i bought him off sed he didn't bring any but i got his fone number so i plan to phone him tomorow to see if he has any more info, bit anoyed but i love him so... the 2 week wiat is because i am feeding him every 7 days and they say to try and get 3 feeds down them before handling, but i now i cannot manage 3 weeks so i am feeding twice, then handling for like 5 mins a day, then after about 5 feeds will try and bring the handling up to 10 mins a day and then after i am comfertable with everything and he is eating furiously and constantly i will just handle him for however long until he gets bored or stressy. |

Is he in shed in the pics?
if he is then wow, that would mean that his colours are dull, that would then mean that his colours would get brighter |

looks like he's in shed too me aswell but it could just be the light, my corn has that line in the third pic i think it's from them shedding but that'd be a total guess. |
