nasicornis that is. I got this guy from someone locally who is down sizing. Killer price for a healthy CB of an increasingly rare species.

He is currently set up in quarantine. I have not decided if I need the money badly enough to try and resell him or if I should hang onto him and begin searching for a female. We shall see.
 
BITIS are my favourite Viperids!!!!! Congrats!!
 
Hold on to him!! In a month you will forget all about the money. Beautiful, healthy animals are a much rarer comodity.
 
Dude!!!! That pic u texted me did not do that beauty justice. Stunning.
 
Holy crap yeah agreed don't flip him how much did you pay if you don't mind me asking

Believe me I love this species and would love to keep it but 2 things are making me hesitate.

1. I am worried that I will not be able to find a female that is also CB and healthy to breed him.
2. I am saving up to get to Belize this summer for an internship which involves tracking and studying American Crocodiles and I do need the money for that.

Chief- I paid $125 which is about average for the typical WC ones but a pretty good price for CB. I will probably mark him at $250 at the show and if no one takes him then I will keep him.
