Update: Giacomo 1.0 Hypo

Well, Just like Brittany years back “Opps, I Did It Again” [emoji23]
2.5 month male Hypo Burm. He’s a cutie, snappy lil things..
Had a drink and ate one of my weaned Rats. Now happy to relax for a few days in his new quarantined enclosure until he moves upstairs with the Girls. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1bd5a4d181.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f8dafb4afe.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e8c13cdd29.jpg

He should calm down quick.

Yeah, nothing better than rats in the belly.

“Feed me! Fill my belly!”

Glad he ate happily for you.

I have a hypo as well, and shes the sweetest. Shes never hissed at us. They get big so quick ! This is a picture from a couple of months ago. Shes a little over a year old. Congrats enjoy !https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...db242544bd.jpg

Super light coloring! Nice quality hypo bud!

He Hiss’s like a air Compressor, lol.. no different then my Old boy..
I usually wait until their good and hungry before I try Fresh Kill but decided no harm in trying.....no problems at all.. he came out of his hide and ate like a Dog off the enclosure floor. No dancing it around or anything [emoji1362]
Thank you for the comments and I hope to see more of everyones updates[emoji1360]

Well you'll have quite the update from me! Dexter has found a new home with a guy from Indiana who actually drove up here.....he has an extreme amount of experience with Burms and agreed to take on his stubborness and extreme stonewalling/mouse only habits as far as feeding goes.

.....and in the mean time? Im in the process of acquiring a normal male albino through a buddy that has recently produced numerous clutches and was able to select a very strong feeder. It's not that I just tossed in the towel with Dex I tried EVERYTHING I possibly had with that worm to try and break his habits, it's just that his personaility belonged in the hands of someone with a LOT of experience with Burms. The guy who took him agreed as well as several breeders I talked to.

It happens and it sounds like you chose what was best for the animal. As you know my big boy is at my local zoo and we could go and look at them anytime and he has a gigantic room with a huge pond a rock Cave and everything else for his retirement years. I look forward to seeing what you get & if that falls through let me know my friend has about 30 hatchlings and they all eat like Monsters.

3rd day of 10min handling session and now he crawls into my hand when I open the Enclosure Door. No more Hissing or Flight/Fight. He’s as calm and inquisitive as a Puppy. Just like my Old Boy.. love him. Real sweetie [emoji1373][emoji1373]

Such a handsome fella! My burm days are over, but I sure enjoy when y’all share photos. :)

Jock is 6 months next week. He has his days when he rather stay in his Hide, but all in all he is really chill once I get him out. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0b6104cfe2.jpg

He looks great brother! Keep up the good work :gj:

Beautiful!!!

When it comes to morphs, that has got to be the most beautiful one I've ever seen in a Burm. Hands down !!!

I’ve already decided that this beautiful Burm morph will be my first when we get the new house! Absolutely gorgeous! [emoji7]

I concur! Many of the Burm morphs don't do much for me but this one looks amazing. If I ever got a giant I would go for that beauty in a heartbeat!

We have HD (Half Dwarf) Hypo Burms in the U.K. .. I just sold one not too long ago .. very inquisitive, fairly fast moving but very calm .

It was about 3 years old and he topped out at just 6' .

He was tiny when I first got him ..

How big will he get?

Normally 13-15 for males.. my other two are close to 16’ stretched against a wall. Around 22 & 24 years old


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh my. Alright then. Why can't they just stop growing at that size? Cheers

He is such a beauty...just love his coloration.

Gorgeous, I just stopped myself from messaging someone on the classifieds for a half dwarf hypo... Totally your fault if I bought that lmao.
