Our New Male BP Is On The Way!

Our new wonderful male from Adam at 8BallPythons is on his way and will be in our hands tomorrow! He's an 05 100% het for albino and we can't wait to see him! Thanks Adam for setting us up with this great male!

Here he is folks.....he'll have his name by tomorrow (I'm picking from a list of 5 names I love so once he's actually here I'll know who he is LOL)

Thanks again Adam...you're the best!

Congrats you guys on the new addition! He's a lovely looking fellow. I know you guys are excited! :clap:

Awww, he's beautiful! And look how he cooperated for Adam when he posed as a figure "8"! LOL

Another Beauty! Adam does it again!

Well of course Robin! *whispering* he's terribly intelligent and advanced for a baby boy snake...don't let the others know...they'll just be jealous of his obvious superiority! hahahahahahahahaha

Good lord I'm either way too over excited here or I just stole one too many chocolate bars from the kid's trick or treating bags!

Oh and just to top off this great week our two stubborn females that were refusing frozen/thawed this past 3 weeks happily snarfed down live tonight. They may one day take f/t, for now live is what they want...live is what they get...I'm just happy to see them eating again. Snakes eating, snakes shedding, a new male on the way....what a good week (and boy did we need one around here!)


~~Jo~~

I am so happy for you Jo! Congrats! You lucky woman! Nice looking snake you got there.

Congrats on the new addition....What plans to you have for this guy?

Congrats on the new addition! :)

Thanks everyone! We're really pleased to be getting him!

Daniel, when this male is ready we'll breed him to a couple of our big normal girls and keep all their daughters. Breed them back to this male and see who proves out that way. I figure it's a win/win...they give me some albino's that's great...they produce normal females for future breeding stock....that's just as great! Any males we'll find good homes for or raise them until we do find places for them. We're in it for the long haul so it's all good as they say.

At some point it would of course be nice to get a 100% het for albino female but that's not realistic right now so we'll just go the slower route and have fun with whatever the genetics odds give us. Just like my own kids...as long as they're healthy right....LOL.

Heck since I've never hatched out a snake, let alone seen one hatch out....I'll be just as goofy happy over whatever sticks it's head out of any egg next year as long as it's a live, healthy baby ball python!


~~Jo~~

There is nothing wrong with the slow route :) ....Thats how I plan on getting pieds :D

Yep that will be the only way we'll ever get a pied too Daniel LOL.

Just checked and our boy made Grand Rapids, MI about an hour ago! Whooohooo he's getting closer! His tub is all warm and toasty (set it up 2 days ago) and I just put fresh water in it so we're as ready as we can be.


~~Jo~~

Woo Hoo! That tracking feature is a great thing, isn't it? Can't wait to hear when he arrives!

JO!!!??? Here it is 10AM in Tucson, meaning its at LEAST noon where you are... and no pics yet? lol

LOL Ken it's now 1:54 pm here in Michigan and the darling lil male showed up nice and warm in his beautifully packaged box from Adam at 12:40. I've been on the phone for the last hour with Adam and my husband who was tracking the snake from work and then in AIM babbling about the snake with Becky LOL.

He's here and fantastic looking! He's just going blue eyed so we'll have an even nicer surprise when his shed is over. All tucked up in his nice new tub and as I was looking through his paperwork he went and had a nice drink and is now checking out the new digs LOL.

Adam, thanks from Mike and I for this wonderful male! He'll be treasured here as you know and we look forward to one day hatching out his pretty babies. As soon as Mike gets home we'll give him a name to match the lovely snakey ladies.

For those that have never had the pleasure of receiving a snake from Adam at 8BallPythons, all I can say is WOW. The packaging is so professional in both looks and function. The snake came in safe, secure and warm. Everything from the box to the snake bag, etc. was in beautiful condition and it was like Xmas morning opening that up. His records are perfect...all a typical OCD snake keeper could want and more LOL!

Oh I can't wait for Mike to get home and see this snake!
