Steaks are great. Misteaks, not so great. ;)

Amazonite and Hematite with a 100% Het Piebald ball python.
The hematite is porous so I could not get a liquid shine, it is still glittery though... :)

Re: Snakes and Stones
I was out shopping with my gf today for Halloween decor.
What did we buy? Only a set of 4 spooky porcelain Halloween dishes (dishwasher/microwave safe).
The set has 4 designs, but, only one with a snake. :snake: $11 USD after tax, not bad. https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...13a_c8u4z4.jpg
Most of you proper homemakers will probably be horrified to learn that my gf and I will use these plates year round. ;)

Brutal if you're buying. Maybe, you should consider selling. You must have a stone or twenty lyin' around that you wouldn't mind parting with.

Lol, for $20 a stone I will sell my entire rough rock collection to whoever wants to buy it. I joke with my gf that if anyone ever wants to steal my collection they will need one of those oversize strip mining dump trucks to get away...

I'd be horrified if you DIDN'T use them. :cool: Obviously not even close to being a "proper homemaker" here either, :rofl:

A rock that looks like granite, but, actually took a high polish. The rough stone was collected from the Snake River in Idaho.
Ball python is a Spider/66% Het VPI Axanthic/66% Het Orange Ghost.
Breeders Note:
I ran into a new issue. I noticed a hatchling having difficulty a few days after pipping: so I cut a small section of the egg to free the snake and it immediately exited the egg on its own, however, the body has a constriction mark where it got pinched by the egg shell near the original attachment point of the yolk stalk. I'm fairly certain I can spot internal bleeding now that the constriction is removed--I think I will be measuring its lifespan in minutes. I am not aware of anything I can do about that. It is too bad, this was the only one of its morph I produced this year. https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...417_ngdfcu.jpg
It may still survive, but, I give it really bad odds.

OH, so sorry. What a shame. Rest in peace, little one. :snake: I've never seen one like that before either.
