Black bloods hatching...

And I'm pretty pleased with what I'm seeing so far! Heads are nice and dark and there's a lot of reverse striping that got passed on. :banana:

Exciting !!! I'd love to have a Blood, just need to find a decent breeder. Best of luck to the little beauties!

They look great! Congrats.

Beautiful babies! They look great! :)

Very cool! I love bloods! I want to get a couple some time in the not too distant future.

How is their temperment when compared to bloods? I've found bloods to be moody little boogers that are always willing to attempt to eat your hand!

I have two black bloods 0.1 chromehead and 1.0 orange head

I've had five of them total at this point, and all five of them have been pretty docile. Of course if it's feeding time they'll be more than happy to eat your hand, but that goes for every species that I've kept!

I think I have the derpiest blood on the planet. She doesn't strike at her food, just kinda opens her mouth and hopes that food will go in. She once spent 30 mins trying to get a rat to go down sideways. Mina has never been tempermental, even when I first got her and she has been one of the most docile snake I've ever had.

I've actually got a couple that I don't even have to mess with to feed... just throw the rat in there and they'll come around and swallow it. I did have a girl that would actually swallow a f/t rat right off the tongs at one point too.

Lol same here all of my black SSTP's and bloods eat that way, none strike they simply wait for me to drop the f/t eat in their enclosure and they gently grab it and consume, always found it funny but very convenient lol

Nice pixs and congrats!

Blood pythons are SO cool looking. I wish they were lighter-bodied with the same patterning

Congrats

I love SSTPs! and those are some very nice babies you got there, when/if your ready to sell feel free to PM me! ;)
