I wanted to share some pics of my most recent adoption, a guyana BCC male.
(was listed in my herp society's monthly newsletter)
He was bought about 5 years ago as an adult WC... treated at that time for parasites.
He was eating fine but always was picky... seems he's been off food now for 6 months.
He will kill live and even take (strike and coil) f/t off tongs, but after a few moments he
will drop the prey and ignore it. He is now being force-fed... I had the guy show me how he
did it, so I will be doing it myself this week since he won't eat the food I've been offering.
He is very very thin. It's hard to tell in the pics, but he has old shed on over 40% of his
body and tail ...
He is nice looking (IMO) and I tried to get the purple but it doesn't come out that great:
As you can see he does tounge-flick and is actually quite active when being handled... but
for some reason he just won't eat. I hope to get a fecal from him soon so I can have him
re-tested for parasites... beyond that, if anyone has any advice about this, that would
be WONDERFUL!

Thanks for checking him out... my first BCC.
