NEW GUY picked up his first Ball Pythons today!

I just got back from Texas. I talked to Brandon of
"Priceless Pythons" last night and he invited me down.

All I can say about that is WOW.

Brandon is one class act. He spent 2 hours with my
wife and I detailing his whole operation and showing us his animals.

First thing up was a clutch that had just came out of the eggs, he hadn't even seen them yet. He was expecting and hoping for a new kind of morph that has never been created before,
but, he was very disapointed when he opened the box, nothing new appeared. No new morph.

I saw lemon pastels, spiders, bumbel bees, granite, carmels, fire pastels, mojaves, clowns, butter something or other :rolleye2:, albinos and several other different kinds of Ball Pythons. I cannot remember all of them. Many different ones, both male and female of each type to chose from.

I also saw a bunch of little ones that were sold and awaiting shipping or pick up, all very nice animals.

If anyone is looking for a new BP, he is the one to go to. He has just about every variation that I have seen on kingsnake.com and
all of them are '09 born and available and his prices are very reasonable.

Needless to say I am now the proud owner of a male spider born 7/17/09 and a lemon pastel female born 8/7/09. :taz:

On the way home we got a couple of 12 qt containers, a couple of uth for 10 gal. tanks and a reostat, and a couple of digital thermometers that also show the humidity and aspen and pine bedding. This will be their temporary home for a few weeks until I can get the cages built. It will take me that long because I am sealing the inside with two coats of fiberglass epoxy resin and it will probably take 30 days at least for it to cure out

Once again THANK YOU BRANDON of "PRICELESS PYTHONS" :gj: :bow: :salute:

DO NOT USE PINE SHAVINGS! Pine is toxic for balls! It can be fatal! Other than that, congrats on your new snakes!

Congrats! I'm sure your new ball pythons are top notch.
I purchased a pair of fires from Brandon earlier this year. I also think he is great to deal with.
Research the pine bedding! I don't think it is good for the snakes! Aspen is fine though!
