My new BHP!!

Finally got my licence and now have my BHP home!!!!! His name is Tjapakai (jup-a-kye). He has been actively exploring his new home for the past 2 hours, am really pleased cos i thought he would go straight under a log!!!! Dogs and cat are fascinated! He had a drink and a poo and a yawn and has just curled up under one of his logs. He is so cute, i'm in love!!!!!

Secretly i think he is hooked though. How could you not fall for a face like that??? By the way, does anyone know how old they need to be to breed?

For breeding, its not age but their size that matters most. A BHP should be at least 6 foot long, nice and thick and healthy.

tell your hubby that once they get to a certain age they will activly seach out a mate, soooo unless he wants a raoming snake around the house you better get a friend for him :whistle: lol

im sure you will sort it out though can he cook if not go on a strike lol
