He's a great guy with fantastic snakes.
My Pastel was out of a clutch that had some outrageous Supers.
[parents were Joliff line]
He's 2 and still holding his yellows and I'm hoping he'll
keep holding them....:)
2 years?...that's stunning for a pastel that old, and something I haven't seen much...congrats.
I'll be lookin for one sometime in the future and would love to have something that keeps like that one.
You'd think I'd find a shop in the Tampa area that would have something decent, but no luck yet.
Just looked 'em up and that's where I grew up (PG county).....doh

3- The NASTIEST crap she has crapped out EVER! It was vomit-inducing smelly (she had never pooped nowhere near this smelly). It was black and huge! :O and lots of urates and liquid peepee :rofl:
Call me a pig if you must, but I had to take a picture of it...
However, she still has her vent area a little bit swollen (not sausage butt style tho). :/
Lmao, she might not be done with you yet! :rofl:
Re: Holy Sausage Butt! :O
My oldest son learned the hard way that he shouldn't "help" the snakes shed around their vent. Let's just say he didn't expect to take another shower so quickly.

Yes and I just found out tonight he's already been a [very willing] daddy several times....LOL
Bill said he was out of the Joliff Lemon lines which I guess is a good thing.
That's why I'm fretting over finding the right female for him.
I see lots of gorgeous baby pastel females at shows but when I go check out the older ones on websites, they all seemed to brown out fairly quickly.
Is it possible that maybe his color stability would carry over to his kids?
What I love about him most is his amazing personality.
No matter what time of day or night it is, as soon as I go in the room, out pops his head and he starts periscoping and tracking me.
He is so interactive!
He watches everything I do and I swear it's as if he's saying "Hey! Whatcha doin'?" all the time.
He loves coming out and just hanging with me.
After a few minutes of exploring, wiggling and "hair snorkeling", he'll settle down either on my lap or beside me and just chill for hours, enjoying his back massages.
Sometimes he falls asleep with his head propped on my hand.
He lays there for almost an hour and I hate to wake him up, he looks so peaceful but my hand goes numb from not moving so as not to disturb him.
[I'm pretty sure he thinks he's a dog]...LOL
It breaks my heart to put him away.
He zooms up my arm or wraps around my wrist and keeps aiming his head away from his house so I can't get him in.
I think he'd just stay out forever if I'd let him....:)
Hubby thinks I'm nuts but I gave him a flat river rock for a "pillow" in front of his favorite hide.
Unless he's just eaten and is balled up inside, he's always got his head on it.
I moved it one night to change his bedding and forgot to put it back where it belongs.
I only noticed my mistake when I saw him in his hide with his neck stretched way out so he could prop his head on the rock, about 6 inches from where it should be....:)
Considering how many snake breeders there apparently are in FL, I'm surprised, too.
Except for The Reptile Crib, there's really nothing here in W.MD, either.
I have to go to the Baltimore area shows to see BPs.
