Gee, that Leland Blue is pretty dangerous to work with- even though it turns out really nice, it's a shame that it really did a number on your right hand. ;) :D
Did a job on both hands, but, it is was just raw physical damage-so I could just pull the splinters out, patch it up, and laugh it off...very different from the bites of the twin-spotted assassin bugs I used to breed.
ID on the ball python:
If you guessed Mojave you would be right.
If you guessed Hypo Mojave, you would be more right. :)
Fun Fact: She is the mother of Clutch #4 (2021) that I linked the time lapse hatching video to on Page 27 of this thread. She is not Orange Ghost: so I have to be careful who I breed her with so I do not mix up my Hypos...

Super Pastel Lesser, some assorted agate (red), and imperial jasper (purple).
This stubborn girl is 6 years old and has not produced a single clutch of eggs. :)
Side Story: I held back three 66% Het VPI Axanthic females and raised them up and crossed them this year with a VPI Pastel Axanthic male (I also produced) and all three females failed to prove...! There are going to be a lot of plain/pastel Het VPI Axanthics in my 2021 photos...:P
As for bead glass: some say it is tough to tumble, and some people say easy...rounding out and removing imperfections in a rotary, and then finishing a vibratory tumbler makes the process easy (imo).
(Very Loud) Video below of me finishing the batch of bead glass that I used for Photos #'s 138-141, and #'s 150-153. :)

Blue-Eyed Leucistics work well in any photo. The problem I have is that all of them look the same...I guess I'm more of a pied guy myself...:)
Been producing Super Lessers (Het x Het) for a few years with no eye issues or other defects, I don't want to push my luck with HO x HO.
