Just a few pictures...



Even though we are big fans of Ball Pythons, and consider them basically the perfect pet snake, we have ventured into something a little different... we have acquired a pair of adult Dwarf x Super Dwarf Reticulated Pythons that are also het-albino. They did not breed for us last winter, but should be able to breed for us this coming season. A friend of ours has hatched some albino babies, and they were completely amazing (from the pictures we saw anyways). We hope to hatch some in 2010. A picture of the male is shown here.

This picture is of an interesting Pastel cross we hatched in a few years ago. It was a female and not the greatest feeder from time to time. So she is not ready just yet. Her mother on the other hand was line bred this year in the hopes of hitting something interest. This clutch should hatch at the end of this month... only a few more weeks to go before we get to see if we hatch anything interesting... From the results we are seeing via candling, it doesn't appear promising (looks rather normal so far), but we'll have to wait and see to be sure...


We also bought some very interesting Captive Hatched animals when we first got started. Some of these are now producing for us. One of those interesting projects is an Orange Granite to Orange Granite clutch. These have never produced for us, so we don't know if they are going to be genetic, but even though they have "browned out" as they got older, they were very stunning as babies. The following picture is of the male (sir of two clutches for us this year). *EDIT* Oups, that is in fact the female... picture of male to come...

So that will be it for today... we have a lot of clutches incubating right now, and we're looking forward to see what comes out of it. Some projects have been a lot of work for us, hopefully some of them will prove to be interesting...

That's it for today!
