New female...

Well the females I'll keep. I'll sell the males at a good price. I want to make my own super's and start breeding other morphs...

I'm going to keep the tanks i have now and build a rack as far as housing goes.
I'll probably try to do some trades to get other morphs. Pastels seem to be the universal morph that breeds well with anything so I shouldn't have too much of a problem trading a couple girls for a spider or something of that sort. I want a collection of differen't morphs pastel, super, spider, bumblebee, albino and what not..

With all due respect to all who commented I don't agree with everything mentioned. Do your research, ask your questions and try to befriend someone who has produced plenty of snakes themselves. Use them as a resource because everyone in this industry does things differently. Some will say not to cool below 70 degrees at night during breeding season and some change the temps 5 degrees all breeding season. Some say parasites are good to a degree and some do their best to get rid of everything that has to do with them. Some say not to cut eggs manually but they all do it.

What you need to realize is that this industry has blossomed only in the last 10 years. Yes people have been keeping these snakes for 25+ years but not many. This is far from a science. I guess what I am saying is do what works for you and what will make you happy. But like said before beware of con artists because this industry is full of them. If you stick around you will be able to pick them out right away.

Oh and have fun because when you do see that morph piping out for the first time it was all worth the work!

Ummmm...what exactly don't you agree with? No one mentioned any details about HOW to breed. All everyone here tried to do was to remind him to quarantine a new animal and to not rush into breeding without doing his research and learning as much as possible first.

:confuzd:

Well I am not going to try until next year...


My snakes will be ready, I will be ready. it will be alot of fun once I see some ovulation followed by some eggs.
