I finally have an MBK after wanting one for ages. I picked him up on Sunday and I can't get over how gorgeous and strong he is. I think he's going to be a fave amongst my snakes. 
Took a couple of pics while transferring him to his viv:
Lightings not good,but I like the pic
My boyfriends in the background. Thats as close as he'd get lol!
I made the mistake of thinking his hide would be heavy enough to hold his heat mat down. I was so wrong! Had to take him out the day after picking him up to secure it more securely.
Bearing in mind he's supposed to be settling in,he was a gentleman so the kids happily looked after him while I did some DIY. He's been happily exploring/furniture arranging since:

| He is,my other snakes look diddy next to him lol. I'm not sure of his weight,his previous owner thought he may be around the 800g mark. Once he's settled in and had a feed I'll weigh him. |

Thanks all. I was a little unsure what the kids would make of him with him being so big,but they love him and were more than happy to hold him.
My son has already added an MBK to his ever growing wishlist for when he's grown up bless him.  |
