After toying with the idea of a larger snake joining our little family for a while, after a lot of debating me and my OH went to The Reptile Room in Cleveleys, which is an absolutely fantastic place, to go and see a few.
We'd been considering boas and the bigger pythons, and handled some adult and juvenile retics (pure and dwarf), amazingly beautiful animals! After a lot of discussion, we ended up coming away with this little sweetheart who caught my OH's eye! She's a Dwarf Sunfire poss Double Het Genetic Stripe and Albino 
The pics really don't do her justice, and the poor girl doesn't have a name yet  |

{(to go + see) = buy}. That's the proven maths.
She's a little poser and looks like she knows where the camera is. Nice choice.

| She is gorgeous, last time I went to "have a look" I ended up with a striped boa so know that feeling well, sort of a nice look what I've got mixed with a pain in the wallet area :) |

Apparently they get no bigger than 9ft Bob, which is a managable size |

Why going to "just have a look" is a bad idea!
