Started my collection

I got into ball pythons few months ago, with a bumblebee male.
But he was so awesome, I couldn`t stop there. Now, I am in over my head, and I`m still learning. I`m also already planning my first two breeding projects in the distant future.
So here are my 3 little pets.

You'll ALWAYS still be learning! :gj: Looks like you're off to a very hot start! :sunny:

I love your pied! But those are some good looking bees too, you have a very nice start :)

Piebald is female also.

Glad you guys and girls like them. I feel like I jumped head in first... So if I`ll have some noobish questions for you, bare with me :D

:rofl:"Over your head" with just 3???? Wait a couple more months when you have 6 more. Good luck with your BP addiction.:gj: Many people are affected and they all have the same symptoms as you. It seems the only thing that cures it is being flat broke.:rofl:

That is way too great to start a collection! :bow:

@Big gunns
Yeah I feel cured right now, cause I`m broke atm :)
@jopay
Thank you

I took this three cause I simply had to have a bumblebee if I had only one bp :) (and initially I was planning only one pastel)
And then I took butterpastel female, and pie female togeather. So I` ll probably take a pie male in a year or so.
I promised myself I will not go over 6 total..cause I dont have much space at my place. Somehow I am not trusting myself anymore :D

That Pied is AMAZING! That's one of the BP's on my gotta get list! Nice start......I'm one behind you! But, I'm loading up on females! Gonna get a couple of males next year when my females have put on some weight so they should mature around the same time to breed!!!

Vary nice start to a collection, all three are great picks. congrats and good luck on your breeding.

What a start!!

Nice snakes and welcome to the hobby!:gj:

Man you sure started with some good looking snakes!

very nice. I started about 6 months ago, I have 32 snakes now and have multiple breeding groups going now. I get my lesser female today whos 1000 grams. were did you get your pied girl from thats what I want after this breeding season

Thank you all!
@paradox
I got here from a breeder at a austrian reptile show.
Unfortunately the prices are also higher here :)

Starting? Starting!!!! With a PIED!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!:gj:
Great looking start there, if you run out of space you can always send me the pied;)

:tears::tears::tears:I so want a pied:tears::tears::tears:

Congrats on a nice start. DUnno what you call a super pastel butter spider, but I'm sure it will rock!

super pastel sputter ^^^ :gj: Awesome snakes, cant wait to see what else you get!
Cheers!

Very nice to start!

Thank you for all nice comments :)
@PitOnTheProwl
I think I`ll always have a room for her :D
@wax32
Yeah it would be great to hit the odds and get butter killerbee(or whatever it name would be) but the chances are slim, and I think I`ll end up with normals if I am counting on my luck :D

You have some real beauties there! I started a little lower end with some het pieds, and have slowly reached the 10 snake mark (took 2 years). You'll definitely have some options come time for them to breed. :gj:

@pghball
Im probably gonna breed piebald female to pied male for 100% all piebald clutch..
But I`m also thinking about maybe getting lavander albino male maybe...but that kind of project would take much more time.

Here is just a pic of the three enclosures for them that my friend made.

Edit: the lights are much softer in reality, and its alot darker overall.

Welcome to the addiction! I started my collection July of this year with an albino and a pied and look what happen! :banana:
Good Luck!

Wow, what a way to get started, LOL

I started my new collection with a Bumble Bee as well :) Also have a Pastel Lesser...

Congrats, beautiful snakes there :)

Gorgeous start to a collection!
