Hello all,
I have an adult male Northern BTS that I'd like to sell.
I purchased him as a baby in 2010 from Ray Gurgui. I had purchased two of them at the time, hoping to end up with a female for the male that I already had, but I struck out. I am looking to part with him to free up space for other reptile projects or perhaps a proven female Northern.
I can 100% guarantee that he is a male, as I have personally witnessed him everting hemipenes.
I must say up front that he has a missing toe on his front left foot and is missing just the very tip of a toe on his right front foot due to a shedding issue when he was a baby. That was one of the reasons I switched away from using Care Fresh as a substrate as I have noticed a tendency for it to keep things too dry, leading to issues like this. In any case, he has good coloration and would make a great breeder.
He has always been a little skittish and he doesn't get handled as often as my other Northern, which is a 12-year-old animal and a true family pet in every sense of the word. I had always intended for this one to be a breeder, but never ended up with a female. He tends to calm down after a short period of handling.
As I acknowledge he is imperfect, I am offering good price as compared to what they tend to be going for these days. I am not especially concerned with the money, as freeing up space is more important to me.
At this time, I am not looking to ship and am offering him as pick-up only. If offering him locally turns out to be a bust, I will consider changing my stance on that in the future. I am happy to provide any number of photographs of him from any angle for anyone who is interested.
Thanks for looking.

Hey, sorry about the late response. I haven't been checking this as frequently as it was starting to look like there was no interest. Yes, he is still available.
PM if you are still interested. Also, another individual just PM'd me this morning, but I will give you an opportunity first in the interest of fairness.
Cheers

Any other BTS available by chance? I'm looking for an adult BTS and I'm also located in Central Illinois.
