So what's in your snake ~ reptile collection ?? Here's mine to start things of !!
Sooooo I just keep snakes ( plus a Leucistic Axolotl ) ( plus tropical fish ) .
I've kept most things in my time but snakes just seem to float my boat - as they say :)
Let's see what you all keep !!!!
Here's mine :~
Snow Boa ( Kahl ) ( 7' adult male )
Dwarf Hypo Burmese python
Caramel Albino Spider Royal
HC Albino Royals ( Pair )
Pastel Royal
Rhino Ratsnake
Bamboo Ratsnake
Leucistic Texas Ratsnakes ( pair )
Imperial Pueblan hybrid ( King x Milksnake)
Mexican Black King snake
Amel Stripe Corn
Cali King snake ( black / white banded )
Desert King snake
Lavender Albino Striped Cali King
Albino Chequered Garters ( pair )
Plus these three beauties are due in the next few weeks ...
Butter Royal python:
Dwarf SunGlow Boa
Super Dwarf Purple Albino Reticulated python
=======================================================
So by the middle of Sept my collection will finally be complete !!!
In saying that .... I've just fallen for Fishboy's Lesser Pastel Royal and I loved the look of that hatchling Green Tree python at The Reptile Room , Cleveleys the other day . It was so gorgeous and so tiny plus it had a cute little black tip on its tail .
I also love those Grey Banded Kingsnakes and the Arizona Mountain kings ...... Don't get me started on Cape File snakes ...

Just received my new baby Super Dwarf Purple Albino Retic from WildSide via ColdBlooded couriers . He was in fabulous condition plus lovely and warm :)
He looks to be just going into shed so I'll leave him to settle in for while ..

Thank you for the kind words !!
I like that photo myself as so many people spread nonsense that they're poor feeders and yet those two eat EVERY time albeit every 10-14 days AND on defrosted rats / mice .

5 years old, 6.5' and 9lbs.
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...399cf32f_h.jpg
3 years old and 45 grams, he's a bit chubby so he's getting his feedings spaced out to 10-12 days.
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...3f761cce_h.jpg
3 years old, 55 grams, he's also chubby so also eating 10-12 days.
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...0aa4e443_h.jpg
2 years old and just over 7'. This photo is from September, so she's grown a bit since this photo was taken, but she's currently just over 7'.
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...e6a15aa9_h.jpg
Almost 1.5 years old and 3'.

Just over 2 years old and somewhere around 3.5'.
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...5365b960_h.jpg
10 years old and roughly 3.5', he was a terrible eater for a good 3-4 years, and has only started eating reliably again for me this past year.
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...a660127c_h.jpg
Almost 1.5 years old and 193 grams. No clue on length, but she has to 3' by now, or close to it.
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...7aeab077_h.jpg
Almost 1.5 years old and 44 grams, no clue on length. He's my special needs snake, and is extremely sensitive to prey size. I've been having a hard time with him, all his info can be found in his thread "Morzan and Homura-BRBS."

I bought him as a lesser butter from the breeder, so I write it that way, but I'm of the belief that lesser butters and super lessers are the same thing.
He's really just pure white with no hint of yellow or burnt marshmellow coloring at all, except for the times he smears himself in pee/pooz. LOL

I mean to say that I'm of the belief that butters and lessers are the same morph, so whatever mix of the two would produce the same as my male BEL, which is pure white. Super mojaves have a dark head and are light yellowy as adults. Lesser mojaves can also turn out with a yellow dorsal or some yellowing as adults.

What about Butter/Lesser to a Mojave? Pure white or is there coloration?

I mentioned in the end of the last post, lesser (or butter) mojaves can sometimes get a bit yellow-off-white as adults or have a light yellow dorsal. They look the same as super lessers when young though. But super lessers are the BEL that consistently stay that white throughout their lives.
Unfortunately, super lessers sometimes have bug eyes in hatchlings, which is the main reason why some breeders prefer to just do lesser mojave.

So here's what my collection is looking like, Monty and Sahara are in shed right now so those are older pics,
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...pskipztpdk.jpg
This is Monty the enchi, OD, pastel, YB. I picked him up at last years CRBE. This is his second winter and with any luck this will be his first year breeding for me
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...ps4bceuyky.jpg
This is Sahara, she's like 8 years old now haha She was the second snake I got and the only female I've ever gotten a clutch from (also the only female I have that's breeding age xD)
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...pscywsps2c.jpg
This is Kezia (bonus points to anyone who gets the reference) she's my only snake that isn't a ball python. She's a 3 year old 75% IJ jag. She's definitely more of a handful than the ball pythons but she's still awesome
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...psbkuvdiyq.jpg
This is Gobi, he was the first reptile I ever owned and he's about 8 years old as well.
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...ps0ejmapzq.jpg
This is Savanna, she's the last baby I have from when Gobi and Sahara bred. I say baby loosely because she's a year old... She took the longest to start eating and I kinda grew attached to her... the fact that she was also the prettiest baby imo doesn't help either lol I still haven't decided for sure whether she'll be staying here or not but it'll be difficult to let her go at this point seeing she has a name and all
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...ps0ykisjwk.jpg
and last but certainty not least is Cinnamon. She's a banana cinnamon that I picked up at the last expo I went to. When I was younger I never thought I'd have a banana and now I do, and a female to boot!
-
My Collection is in my Signature, don't have any pictures on my work computer at the moment:
-Tegu
-2 IJ BTS
-5 Dart Frogs
-Beardie
-Childrens Python

I like what I see so far. The diversity is very interesting.
Here is the "gateway snake" she was a present for our son. She's a normal from a local pet store. She's over 5 years old and doing very well.
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/IMG_5050.jpg
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/DSC00139.jpg
Stretched out. Her name is Hunter.
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/DSC01359.jpg
She is closing in on 4.5 feet long and is quite lean. She is VERY picky about eating. She'll live forever!
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/IMG_3592.jpg
This was MY first snake. After getting my son his gift, I was instantly hooked.
As far as having something special is concerned, this guy takes the cake. He was produced by none other than Gus Rentfro. Gus is a world authority on boa constrictors and produced some of the finest locality animals on the planet. I bought this one from Legacy Reptiles they were considering keeping him as a breeder male but I got very lucky.
Male, Barranquilla, Colombian boa constrictor. Sniper is his name.
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/DSC01264.jpg
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/DSC00125.jpg
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/DSC01676.jpg
Sniper is over 4 years old and closing in on 7 feet long.
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/IMG_3180.jpg
This was #3. I bought this one at a local expo. This is Jewel. She is a coastal carpet cross. Her mum is about 10 feet long. Her dad is around 8 feet long.
She is a very entertaining animal and is very close to 7 feet long or possibly a bit over that. She is a fussy eater but she still grows.
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/DSC01701.jpg
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/IMG_3194.jpg
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...a/DSC01707.jpg
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...IMG_3204_1.jpg
And last but not least, this is Wallace. He is a SD X Dwarf Tiger reticulated python. He's 5 months, one week old.
He just had a photo shoot today in another thread. Wallace is 3 feet long.
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...tput_30e3.jpeg
He's a looker and the only snake we have here without a head pattern.
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...tput_30e7.jpeg
He's hard to photo stretched out.
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...tput_30eb.jpeg
I really enjoy this guy.
http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/y...tput_30f4.jpeg
Great thread and I hope more folks add to it. There so many people who have unique collections. They are worth seeing IMO.
