What a sad day :( ...We have had a pet marmoset monkey for 2 years now, lately he has become very sexually aggressive towards my wife, Christy. He loves on her then starts biting her very badly. She has had a hard time with this because Bud has always bonded with her and she is the only one who can take care of him. We have tried everything and tried to think of every possible option to this problem. The only choice to assure Christy's safety was to relocate Bud. There is a really nice zoo about an hour and a half from our home, this zoo is a small family owned zoo with loving caring owners and workers. We have known these folks for a while and visited the zoo before. When I told them of our situation they did not hesitate in offering to rehome Bud. We took him today with the understanding that he is still ours and we have visiting rights anytime we want, free admission of course. When we left him tonight he was chirping and communicating with the other monkeys. I truely believe this will be what is best for Bud and for Christy's safety, but this was as hard as anything we have ever had to do. Keep our family and Bud in your prayers....Thanks......Frankie ]]> FatBoy https://ball-pythons.net/forums/entry.php?47-Tough-Day https://ball-pythons.net/forums/entry.php?45-Repticon-Charlotte Mon, 04 Oct 2010 13:44:36 GMT Repticon Charlotte was fun, got to see all my snake buddies, made some new friends, and business was good.

Any other breeders suffer with this? I have produced a BEL and 3 very nice Pieds that I need to sell, I'm also holding onto a couple Mojos and Cinnies, YB, Lesser, Butter, Bee, Enchi, all females. I need to put some of these guys up but want to KEEP THEM ALL!! Any other breeders suffer from this compultion????? :rolleye2: ]]> FatBoy https://ball-pythons.net/forums/entry.php?4-Breeding-season-winding-down Mon, 30 Aug 2010 23:00:05 GMT Well breeding season had it's ups and downs...Temps were a problem early as I made a move to a new snake room. I was expecting 15 clutches this year and ended up with 16. 5 clutches went bad due to temps, my advice is to NEVER move snakes anywhere near breeding season, lessen learned!!! Had several clutches of Mojaves and Cinnies. Missed out totally on the Lessers and Pins. Had some YBs and of course plenty of normals. Hatched my first Blue Eyed Lucy from Mojo X Mojo. Still have 4 clutches in the bator, Het Pied X Het Pied, 2 clutches of Spider X Pastel, and Albino X Het Albino. Already making plans for next season and will be shooting for 20+ clutches. I don't say it enough but I really enjoy the opportunity to work with these amaiing animals.
