And the addiction goes on ... Newest members to my collection
i recently added 3 more snakes to the collection well one is mine and the other 2 are my brothers but there in my collection
the first one is mine i bought her as a black back female that is 100% het albino ... but i have been told that she could be a cinny i posted a thread on here a few days ago and a few members said she looks cinny so you decide if you can all i know is that she has green eyes so most likely not a normal her whites are very very super bright and her browns are chocolate like pics dont do her justice plus its hard to get a good pick when she dont sit still.. here she is

Don't put your female in danger by breeding her to young or to small! Wait until she hits the 1500 g. mark. You have some nice animals don't hurt them by rushing. Patience is definately important when it comes to breeding snakes,

well for one they probally wont attempt it and 2nd a underweight female that is gravid could possibly die or the clutch wont make it cause of the eggs being to small ... i guess it could happen but i wouldnt try it just for the safety of the snakes
Re: And the addiction goes on ... Newest members to my collection
I'm sorry for anyone who misunderstood me. Maybe I worded it wrong but yes I am still kinda new 2 snakes but I do know that they are still 2 young 2 breed I meant it like I'm gonna try 2 get them 2 lock later on down the road when there both up 2 the weights they have 2 be to breed. Next time ill be more specific
Re: And the addiction goes on ... Newest members to my collection
now that thats cleared up .... lets get back to the comments
Re: And the addiction goes on ... Newest members to my collection
First of all nice snakes! It will be fun for you to watch them grow for sure! Secondly, I'm afraid she doesn't look like a Cinnamon to me at all, just a really nice normal :gj:. But that shouldn't matter, she's still a good looking girl! Have fun and take care of those guys!
Cheers,

ok thanks i appreciate the comment ... but now i have a question ... if she is normal why does she have green eyes i personally have never seen a normal with green eyes .. she has the same eyes as the spider ... now i know for a fact that she is 100% het albino ... but if that was the factor wouldnt her eyes be red ... i guess the pictures dont do her any justice cause she looks like a normal in the pics to me as well but in person she is really like a chocolate color with really high whites .... just the green eyes are throwing me off

Het albino eyes are not red - they're essentially normal ball pythons that carry one copy of the albino gene. I've got a couple of normal females that have green eyes. She doesn't look anything like a cinnamon to me, but that doesn't make her any less pretty! Her pattern is not a cinnamon pattern.

Yupyup! As Robin said, sometimes normals have green eyes (which I think is stunning). Hets do not have any visual indications of the genes for which they are hets. Some people may argue against this, as there seem to be some "markers" for things like het Pieds and such, but the general consensus is that these are not 100% reliable. Don't be disappointed though, she's still gorgeous! My first Ball Python was a normal I picked up like 5 years ago, and that is still my favorite snake!
Cheers,
