    haha...can you tell its Friday night? Yes Woma x BPs has been done by NERD. The offspring are generally sterile. The number of eggs would depend on which was the female.

    I've never seen one for sale so can't offer a price.

    southernstar512, keep in mind that hybrid snakes can be a touchy subject and not every one is in favor of producing the little abominations...oops, was that my outside voice...:oops:

    It is a "touchy" subject so if it touches someone wrong then find another thread.

    I think hybrids are amazing. I get why people love them and why people hate them. The thing that bothers me is that you want to breed them strictly for the money. Just be aware that you may end up with a bunch of snakes that only appeal to a very limited market. Be prepared to care for them for a long time.

    No need to be snarky, it's a fair opinion to warn the OP that not everyone is a fan of hybrids, and that he might run into problems when trying to sell them or even getting information on them.

    Not gonna lie, when I read the title I wa imagining a ball python slithering up a wall. :P Just thought I'd throw that out there. But anyway, as was mentioned, the biggest thing when considering breeding is to keep in mind that if you are unable to sell the babies, you will be stuck with them. If you can not provide ideal living conditions for all of the possible babies, don't breed. Simply look for the hybrid you're interested in if that is what you want and your reason for breeding. Many people will not buy hybrids, but there are some out there who might be interested. It'd be hit or miss though.

    Anyway, best of luck getting more info and if you decide to give it a try. :)

    Hybrids are fascinating, and the wall in particular is one of my favorites. It -is- a very touchy subject in general though. They're also relatively difficult to produce, from what I've read anyway. I'd say you're better off keeping an eye on the classifieds and looking for a snake you like, I thought I'd seen a wall for sale.... maybe it was a blood/ball though, can't remember

    The problem with hybrids is that you need to find the buyer and not everyone is into hybrid, therefore they are really only worth what someone is willing to give you for them.

    There are a few hybrids I found amazing however would I try to produce them or acquire them? NO I plan on producing some intergrades (75% IJ Jag X IJ) down the road and this is as far as I will go.

    Anyway touchy subject especially, even more so down the road when it comes to generation 2 or 3.

    i am somewhat of a fan of hybrids, i may never try to produce them but i would buy a few later on down the road. The problem is the price that people are asking. There was a wall on kingsnake for months and months and the seller was asking i believe 1500. And as much as i like the wall (my favorite hybrid), i would never pay more than 4-500 for one.
