The beauty of the petstore is that they don't know what "market value" is for a T. This often results in some pretty silly things like $30 G. rosea, but it can also result in some great deals like $40 B. smithi. A local petshop has a B. klaasi in there for $85 at about 3". I haven't looked closely enough to see if it's a male or female, but if it was a female that is a sweet deal when most online dealers want as much as $60 just for a hatchling. Unfortunately, this also works both ways as the local market has no idea what it should be worth and it's been there for months while a number of cheaper A. seemanni and G. rosea have moved through there.

Pretty much all the T's as possibilities for starter are stated by others. One thing I just want to touch on, though, is your b/f. I know that this is none of my bussiness, but why did you need his permission to get a harmless thing such as a T for your son?

his house

we live with him and he did not want it, doesnt like them. Thats the simplest explanation. He gave in though, and has accepted the idea..begrudgingly, but still accepted it.
It goes so much nicer when i get my way :}
