Derma Ball

[ladywhipple02]

Just wondering if anyone else had seen this post and what everyone thought about it.

Personally, after Hamburg, I think he got a little full of himself. But that's my opinion.

After Hamburg? Okay, I won't go there.

My personal feelings about the Derma Ball aside, I feel he is jumping the gun quite a bit to sell these as Hets before he proves them out. If someone plunks down $30K and these don't prove out, he's going to have some 'splainin to do.

Along that same note, I get irritated when I see people try to sell 2002 50% or 66% possible Het anything. Yes, they happened to raise that animal up to breeding size and all of a sudden decide to sell it as a possible het without trying to breed it? I'm sure it has happened where someone does that, but more often than not I'm sure the animal proved to be a normal and they are still trying to pass it off as a poss. het. Okay, I'll stop ranting.

I'm not even sure what I'm looking at? What in the world? That poor thing is a ball python? Someone would actually want to and purposely try to breed this?

I don't know what to think about this, I really don't.

The Northern Berks Reptile Show, in Hamburg, PA. Were you there? Wendy and I were there before venturing over to Adam's shop. I saw it very briefly but I think it's hideous so didn't give it more than a passing glance. It was also kinda crowded and I had better things to do with my time. (like try and control my sister )

After she wiped me clean of money, there wasn't much left to do. I'm broke sorry we have to go. Of course when she's overrun with geckos and sending them your way, we'll see who's laughing!

Hey now! Just because I couldn't stand to let a good crestie pass me by...it's not my fault...it's an addiction!!! Besides, I only just figured what type of colors I wanted in my breeding colonies and this little girl was a gorgeous orange flame (almost creamsicle looking!!)... AND she came from Phillipe de Vosjoli's stock!! ...I know, I need help...

If only more of those vendors took credit cards!! I forget to carry cash and only bring the ATM card...AND they didn't have ATM's there, so you see I had to clean out my sister's wallet (hey, at least I replinish it too....under threat of my new crestie going to TN if I didn't ). Besides I'm sure I can convince my neighbor to go to the MARS show in September!

Besides, I never claimed to be easy to control...It's more like joining me for the fun ride that is my life

I've heard of hairless animals but a snake with no scales (that just not normal). Well this mad scientist has my vote for the Darwin award if this animal can be reproduced. Very creepy snake....

I think it looks quite cute actually, certainly compared to hairless cats or toy poodles etc.
I am concerned though about the health of the animal. It may be that scaleless pythons can lead a long and happy life in captivity, but equally they may be plagued by health problems to an early death. The important thing is deciding which is the case...
