    First lock!!

    Omg, this is so exciting.
    I decided to try if my normal and mojave were willing to make some babies, so I left him in with her over the night. 6am I get up and check on them, and this is the awesome sight that met me.







    Of course they have somehow during the night managed to dip the papertowels in the waterbowl so everything was soaking wet, but.. WOO! omg! This is the first time breeding for me ever, and I've been waiting 3 years for finally getting into breeding ball pythons! This is just too exciting!!

    My female is pretty huge tho, 2400 grams, and 5 years old. Never been bred before. I'm hoping she'll give me a nice clutch!

    Re: First lock!!

    Why there are relatively few photos of locks:
    They tip the water bowl, pee everywhere, and spread urates all over the walls of the bin and themselves...and you find them locked, so you have to wait until they are done to clean it up, lol.
