Well, I took my mom to the VA show this past Sunday so that she could see some of the variety out there. After looking around the show for a couple of hours, we were making the rounds to the final tables we hadn't seen. That's when she found an albino burm baby. The guy running the table let us handle her (Mom held her first snake!). She fell in love with Josephine (Mom named her before she'd even paid the man! lol) and we went home with her (credit cards strike again!). The deal is that I keep her at my house with my collection and Mom comes by and plays with her. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] She's got a really sweet disposition and seems to love being handled (a good thing because I thought Mom was going to rub her scales off Sunday lol). She also eats great on f/t mice even though she's been raised on live mice. I'll be switching her to rats before much longer (she's on rodentpro jumbo mice right now). She's roughly 2 months old, around 2 feet long and really nice colors - orange and golden yellow on a clear white background. I have to admit she's the prettiest albino burm I've seen at any of the recent shows. She was also the most striking out of the litter. Can you tell I'm a proud assistant mom?

Wth this little girl, Mom wanted to hold her right off. I'm so proud of her. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] I'll post pics whenever I can lay hands on a camera. My brother was going to loan me his digital but it's acting screwy right now. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img] Just my luck.
