    My Daytona Expo Haul *Lots of pics!*

    My Daytona Expo Haul *Lots of pics!*
    So it finally came, the National Breeders Expo! I had been waiting for it for some time , and naturally was very excited since it was my first reptile expo ever. I had a lot of fun, met some really cool guys that helped me out, and got a bunch of great animals! Definitely a great first, and not my last time going!


    Anywho, heres some snakes I got! Lets see if I can remember everyones names that I got them from!

    This is a 475gram albino boy, I loved how he looks so high contrast, I just had to have him.





    This is a big 1200gram pastel girl that will be seeing my spider male this season




    Now I remember these guys, Underground Reptiles, since I go to them a whole lot. I was told a few weeks before the expo that they'd have some funky bush babies, so I figured why not take up a little gamble project. I picked up a yearling male that I fondly named "Gambit". I would really like your input what I should try matching him up with. I was thinking either a genetic stripe or a spider, what do you think?





    The big one that I was waiting on was this large breeder male pied. I've been paying him off for a while and finally picked him up this weekend. The pictures really dont do this champ justice. Bought him from Richard from High Seas Reptiles and could not be any happier with this great tempered snake.







    All in all, I got a load of great animals and AMAZING prices, I was originally expecting to come home with two snakes, maaaaaaybe MAYBE three with the money I brought, but I was happily surprised by the deals and all the awesome people that negotiated with me. Hope you enjoy my new babies !

    Congrats on the great pick ups! That's definitely not a spider, but his stripe is really cool!

    Oh I know lol ! When I said spider, I was trying to figure out what kind of morph to match him up with to see if hes a new morph. Hes a wild caught bp and has these really weird unusual markings to him, as well as the belly! I was just trying to get some input as to what to put him with, any ideas?

    I would yield caution to breeding that pastel female in the outcome or producing bees.

    That female is really badly browned and will only make ugly browned babies as well, which if your looking to sell will be hard. When it comes to the pastel gene you want to get the highest color with minimal to no browning.

    I would pick another male to pair to her that would look good as a darker combo like a chocolate,sable and so on.


    Either way congrats
