Thank you! It was actually a surprise clutch ngl, I thought the dad was a banana because I saw no visual lock when I paired them up. But it was a...

I love the rocks in the gumball machine. That's clever marketing.

Photo #518 BP = Pastel/Lesser/Hypo, assorted stones (from mostly the western USA, with a bit of Eastern USA, Africa, Brazil, and India). Also,...

If these offspring were from one male, I think this is the likely combo: :)

Awesome snakes! Great job! :trophy: I couldn't comment on how you could produce Super Stripes and Highways from the same clutch without the...

So the rest of the ID’s are what I expect, all pastel super tripe, 1 super stripe and 1 super pastel super stripe which I’m only guessing because I...

Photo #517 A Het Piebald ball python with a piece of Lapis Lazuli from Afghanistan. I purchased several lbs of Lapis Lazuli years ago before...

Neat snakes! If you have Super Pastel/Super Stripe (YB+Specter) x Ivory (Super YB) Then this would make the offspring a simple 50/50: Pastel...

Yeah, I don't much buy into the idea of 'experts'. If what someone says has good evidence supporting it, that's a plus. Whether an 'expert' makes...

Alright, thank you very much for your feedback! I think that’s probably why the seller told me it wasn’t strictly necessary and pointed me toward a...

You're right that a sample size of one isn't reliable data -- it is confirmation bias. Interpreting phototaxis in animals is challenging enough, but...

Thank you so much! :) I agree that the card’s only real purpose is to check whether the UVB bulb is still emitting or not. But I see it as a much...

Welcome! Glad you're joining us from France. :) Something like that card -- a simple indication whether there is UVB or isn't UVB -- would be kind...

Thanks for the help :) The father (banana black pastel) is also possible het caramel according to the breeder, but I guess I can't really tell if...

They're available in the States too (link). Assuming they work, I guess it's better than not testing at all. Useless, though, if you're concerned...

Hello from across the Atlantic! I'm French and I regularly and happily visit your forum; it's much more informative than the few we have. ...

Photo #516 BP = Pastel/HGW (not-so Hidden Gene Woma) with assorted stones. I can easily count 30 types of stones from around the world. ...

Thanks! I have been working with my black pastels for a long time. I produced super black pastels several years ago and only one of them did not...

Very pretty- I'm a sucker for the deep dark colors. :gj:

Photo #514 BP = Black Pastel/Het for Piebald. Stone = A piece of agate from the Mid-West USA. :)

Before I read the description I looked at the three photos and said to myself 'Two Hets (of something), and a Black Pastel'. I would not have...

Very pretty, whatever he is? (sorry, someone will be along who can help answer your question)

Thanks! I can't win'em all...(I can try though)! So far the remaining eggs in the clutch are holding steady. I'm just surprised since there was...

So sorry...:( and here's hoping for the rest of them.

Makes sense!
