Looking for another Nic BCI or 3 :)

[josh_p75]

Hello! I'm new to the forums. I've read a lot of what you guys have posted and have seen some great info. I've been into snakes for 20 yrs and still have plenty to learn.

I'm posting b/c I'm trying to find some info on a good breeder for Nicaraguan BCIs. I'm looking for anything, normals to morphs. Just want to make sure I get a good, healthy snake. I've had BCCs and various pythons in the past and have absolutely fallen for my Nic, Luna. The LPS where I got her only has one breeder, and I don't want to introduce her to a male of the same lineage, so I need to look elsewhere.

Any suggestions? I've been emailing back and forth with Big Apple Herp. Anyone have experience with them? Can't find much pos or neg on the interweb.

Anyone from here have some cool Nic babies expected?

1 caveat - I'm in the frozen tundra, so I'd really prefer spring before shipping, but I figured I should start looking.

Thanks for the help!

Josh

PS - Attached is a pic of Luna!

She's right around 2.5 yrs. That's her typical pose. She loves her cave and waits there, praying for mice to fall from the sky.

I'm not sure but she may still have some stunning hypos. She has some gorgeous animals.

Oh and Luna is adorable! More pics please.

Oh and the 08 male Possible het T+ is amazing as well. I would get him if I could!

	Heterozygous Heterozygous - the animal carries the gene for a genetic trait but does not outwardly demonstrate the trait. Example: A boa that is het for albino looks normal but carries the albino gene. When it is bred to another het for albino boa or an albino boa, a percentage of the offspring will be albino.

Yep. Figured I should get a start on raising the next part of the collection. It'll be a few years down the line as most of the ones I'm looking at are <1 year anyway. She has a year or 2 to go, and we'll see what I can find.

Do have a line on a normal pair that are Het T+ albino. Not sure if I should go for it. They want 800 for the pair.

I'll try and get some body shots of her as she is now. She just scarfed two F/T mice yesterday, so she's not coming out much right now.

Here's a link to a gallery - all but one of the pics are from when she 1st came home.

Here's a body shot from when she was just a little tiny bit...

I do have a few hypos and normals available. And believe it or not that '08 is still available...I haven't been trying real hard to sell any of them

I've got three pairs going this season...no ovulations yet.

Awesome! Do you have current pics? 16 is very pretty - does she still have anger probs?

Can I get a package deal? Buy 2 Hypos and get a normal? I love 14 - she has beautiful markings in the pic...

I'd be intersted in the Het + male and possibly a hypo female. You can PM me if you'd like.

Thanks much,
Josh

Some more pics. Luna came out tonight to bask. She fed the day before yesterday, so she looks a bit chunky in the pics.
