I took these on BBQ break from building my new Rat Racks :) Enjoy.

Beautiful snakes!!
Now you have to be patient and wait until they're large enough to breed.

Thanks! The Bee's actually producing plugs. He arrived in April at 242g and he's 487g currently. The Pastel was 228g in April and is now 510g. My Lemon Blast is 266g, up from 218g when she arrived a month ago. I have a bunch of happy healthy eating snakes :D I have three in shed and the two Mojave girls and my Cinnamon just ate so I still owe some more pictures.

B

Oh dang, so the bee is ready to breed, if you would choose to try. Have you thought about picking up an adult normal or some type of adult morph to pair him with? Or do you just want to wait until all of your awesome girls are ready?
Sounds like they're growing great though! And they look fantastic.
Can't wait to see more pictures!! :D

I'm chewing on the idea of picking up a few reduced or banded females. I just don't really want to mess with normals. I know I know, there's some cool normals. It would really take a nice large banded or reduced snake to get me to pull the trigger. Otherwise I'm better off waiting I suppose. This isn't a hobby for impatient people :cool:

Ha, you said it exactly! And once all your girls are large and you're producing some amazing babies, all this time of you being patient will absolutely be worth it.

Those are some sweeeeeeeeet animals

Great pic's.... You snakes are sure looking good, and growing nicely......:gj:

Amazing pictures Brian, they all look awesome! I love how yellow your pastel still is, very impressed :gj:

Your snakes are beautiful! That pastel is just stunning.

Beautiful animals! :gj:

Gosh! That Lemon Blast is hot. Oh! I wish I had one :)

No one likes the non-brown Bee? I thought for sure he would be getting more props especially with all the brown bees we get pictures of. LOL. Hopefully he stays that way. Anyone have any thoughts?

Appreciate the compliments Leah. My Pastel is one of my favorites. She's yellow all the way to her belly. It was a shame the grass hid most of the bright yellow but you can get some glimpses. She ended up being free thanks to my negotiation when I bought my fist four :D

Thank you. I appreciated Pastels but not truly until I got her. She's almost everyone's favorite. My brother visited and couldn't put her away. He was snapping all sorts of shots.

She was a smart pickup for sure. Not only is the breeding potential amazing but she's really one of my most stunning snakes.

I love the lemon blast, the pastel is pretty, the bee is amazing, but where the heck is your fire mojo photo....holding out on us? :rofl:

Thanks for sharing Brian :)

Thanks Jerry!

Hehe... I'm keeping that secret under wraps. Just kidding. Fire Mojo, Mojo, and Cinnamon had all eaten so I didn't want to bother them. The Sugar, Lesser, and Pastel Yellow Belly were all in shed. I will get shots of them soon. I'm usually too busy feeding to get photos. :D Sad for sharing photos but sweet for my little growing sausages. :snake:

Regards,

B

They are gorgeous as usual, beautiful pinstripe and pastel but I do have to say the bee if my favorite. I hope I can find one next year as nice!

Thank you Sama. I love my Bee. He's a great example of the morph and isn't a ding dong wobbler. It is only even slightly present when we're about to feed and he is super excited. I don't know your time frame but I hope to have some bees next year :) Hopefully they will be at the standard I've set by buying this guy.

B

Very nice looking snakes! A Lemon Blast is going to be my next purchase. Yours looks nice and clean.

Thanks a lot :) She tends to be everyone's favorite when they stop by to check out my snakes. I love her too. She's tearing up F/T rats :D

Lemon blast all the way!

Great looking animals!

Very Nice Brian! I really like that bee.:gj:

Thanks Anthony. He's still my favorite. Years ago when Bumble Bee's were first produced and cost a second mortgage, they sparked my interest in ball pythons. Irregardless of the price, I still smile everytime I pull him out. The magic wasn't lost over the time and depreciation of the combo. </sentimental>

B

Good looking bunch Brian :gj:...I still want to see that Mojo fire girl though! lol

She's coming, she's coming :)
