Scaleless Ball Pythons?!

[RoseyReps]

I also remember the Derma having a multitude of health issues.

These Scaleless BPs that Brian has produced - well I guess we'll see. Hopefully their skin is think enough. This reminds me of Silk back Bearded Dragons. They look awesome, but their skin is so thin that it literally rips and tears leaving the animals in excruciating pain.

Yea, the silkies have some issues for sure. Females can't be bred safely due to the males "love bites" and claws. Perhaps because of the lack of interaction with breeding bps (no biting/claws) and the fact they don't "bask" there won't be many issues. Aside from never being able to feed them live for fear of scratches/bites...

It will be very interesting to see how they progress.

This is a game changer.

Congrats to Brian and BHB for their perseverance and intuition on pursuing the project!

There has been scaleless corn snakes around for awhile, do they have skin or stretching issues?

This is without a doubt the biggest thing to hit ball pythons in years as long as there aren't any complications. Cant wait to see what these look like when mixed with some of the crazy morphs we have out there.

It is awesome, but I hope that any health implications are not downplayed for the sake of entertainment/$$.

I'm just simply stating that I'm not going to pay attention to the thread because it'll be out of my price range for quite awhile. I wouldn't mind getting one once it comes down to my price range though. Very nice looking.

how much do they cost?

Well I can almost guarantee you with it not being very common right now, it's probably well over $1,000 which is out of my price range. A full scaleless would even be more I'd assume.

Hey, I guess mites wouldn't be a problem either? lol.

Yea, I would imagine this is more like second mortgage price range. 75k-100k+
