Well here i am again....another new burmese. This time its an albino baby that is 5 months old. This military guy is getting stationed overseas and cant take most of his collection with him so he needs to part with all. Ive been talking to him trying to help him find good homes for them but for his albino everyone lately arent good candidates. The impulse show off type. So i went ahead and took it. Got its cage all ready and brought it home tonight. Its setteling in good and is docile. Here are a few pics in my hand before she went in her new cage. Shes just shy of being 3 ft.

You have definitely crossed to the dark side now.

Very pretty baby

I have to say I LOVE burms but am just not ready for one now, probably will never be.

Stan - not to stir up trouble but I was wondering. You started talking about getting rid of your 6.5 ft albino burm Ecko in January and I believe did rehome him in May saying you didn't have the time for him and your wife wanted to let him go outside because she hates burms, but now you have three new burms including this new baby. What makes them any different from Ecko?

yes i did rehome Ecko. I rescued her because she was basically being tortured with her previous owner. I rescued her so she wouldnt die a horrible death.

My wife hated him because she didnt trust him with our kids around. He was very aggressive in or out of his cage. I spent a little over a year working with him constantly to get him more handleable and calmer. When i rescued him i had no permanent intentions on keeping him forever. Work with him and relocate him was the plan from day one. I spent 7 months finding him the perfect owner and new home. I basically gave him away for nothing just so he would have a good home. He now lives in PA and i get updates on him regularly which is nice. My wife enjoys these other burms as they never even hiss or show any signs of an attitude. She feels more comfortable with these in our home. I always wanted burms so since i relocated Ecko i have made more room and also made more larger enclosures as now im more setup for time and space for them all. My previous job would not allow me home at all from dusk till dawn so now im home a lot more permanetely. When i rescued Ecko she didnt want me to but i couldnt leave him where he was. Since then ive included her in all three of these rescues so its been all a complete agreement. I rescued these as pets for me...not save in hopes of relocation.

You didnt stir up anything....you made a valid point and im glad that someone actually remembers that far back to when i did relocate Ecko.

Thanks for the concerns and the compliments.
