    taking advantage of a warm and beautiful day !!
    to make new pictures of the 3 Desert Ghosts :)
    I tried to make shots in the bright sun as well as in the shade, as that changes their color and contrast ;)

    Arjana (Pastel DG) is not part of this photo shoot because she is deep in shed.


    Starting with Sirius, Pastel Butter Enchi DG male

    next is Venus, Pastel Enchi DG female

    last is Aurora, Lemonblast Enchi DG female. I don't have great pictures of her. She truly is SO much more beautiful then that. But she is very shy and still stresses easily. So I don't want to put her through "posing" for pictures. When I put her down she tries to hightail out of there, LOL. Very sweet girl, though, and coming along great. Finally switched to F/T, eating well, and getting much better with handling (not freaking out so much). MUCH better pictures will follow when she is more relaxed with handling.

    I just posted in another thread how I am happy if I own a brown snake but I have to call myself a liar because your snakes are always amazing looking.

    Thank you :)

    This is the Beauty of owning a Ball Python. There is "some look" for everybody. Beauty is in the eye of the Beholder. There are many "wild type, normals" that make me drool. I find many single gene animals stunning as well.

    Then you have the generally beautiful personality of the Ball Pythons. They can be shy, but they do learn to trust. And there are different nuances within.

    Some people say they are boring. I have had Blood Pythons, Borneos, Brazilian Rainbow Boas, Redtail Boas, Carpet Pythons, Rubber Boas, Green Tree Pythons, Russian Ratsnakes, Rosy Boas, etc. But I have to say, Ball Pythons are still my favorite. Even though all the other species were unique, beautiful and interesting as well.

    My heart lies with BP's. And not just because of "morphs". Sure, I love the appearance of Desert Ghosts but I admire many other colors/patterns as well. No matter how rare or costly they may be (or not).

    I'm still new, but I'm curious as to what morph in Sirius makes his blushing so prominent? I LOVE the way his blushing is.

    It is the combination of the different genes. Butters have that beautiful soft blushing, pastel lightens it and enchi + the desert ghost clean it up and give it the glow :)

    Thank you !!

    Since I keep a very small collection, I figured, lets go with what I love :) I might breed them later on (probably) but that is not my main objective. I just adore this gene :)

    I am a BIG fan of the yellow coloring in BP's. Your collection is very nice and something you should be proud of having!
    I love my Pastel Banana boy, even though he likes to pee on me every time he is handled. Then on the other hand, my Pastel Champagne het pied is a sweet heart. I love the bananas so much that my Cal King snake is a banana morph.
    The only one in my collection that doesn't have the yellow coloring is my Hog Island Boa... But she is in a class all on her own :gj:

    Thanks for sharing!!

    Speaking of Hog Island Boas , they are my VERY favorite !!! I had all kinds of Boas at one time, but never a Hog Island. And I regret this, because they are just beautiful. So softly colored and often with that peachy hue. They are very under rated imho !

    Sounds like you have quite the nice collection, even though one of them is a pi$$er :rofl:
