Lets give this a try...

Well theres been a few members that have noticed or observed lockups (and posted pics) and best of luck to everybody that has... I still have a few weeks until my girl comes out of quarantine and I can attempt my first season of breeding. On that note it's always great to see peoples lock-ups and I thought it'd be cool to create a thread for people to post their lockup/copulation pics they've captured so far this year...I'm sure other members would love to see them as well all in one thread...

So go ahead post your lockup pics and again...Best of luck to everyone this year!

:rockon:
P.S. even if you don't have pics to put up maybe specify what your expecting/projects your attempting this season...Should be a decent thread and thanks to everyone that participates!

This would be a cool thread if people participated...

:D

LOL :clap:

I guess he didn't specify :D

he wants "copulation" pics too..but i don't think that kind of prison content is allowed here. :rofl:

You know what I was talking about...seriously though, This could be really cool to see everyones (ball pythons) breeding and laying from start to finish...

Even if they haven't started breeding yet it'd be cool to see what your expecting or attempting to breed this year.

*once again best of luck to everybody this year!

Let me help get this started, these are rare pics from me, I dont like to disturb breeding snakes. but its very exciting seeing numerious pairs of breeding ball pythons on a dailey basis at this time of year. heres a het. albino X Lemon Pastel. :) https://ball-pythons.net/gallery/fil...rge640x480.jpg

A Graziani Pastel Male het. orange ghost X het. orange ghost female doing what comes naturally! :) https://ball-pythons.net/gallery/fil...001640x480.jpg

Thanks Ed!


Yeah, I know alot of people don't want to disturb their snakes...Awesome pics though! Thanks for helping me get this thread started!

Yeah, it really sucks too! My male JUST SHED last night so I'm a little tempted...I'm thinking about going ahead and putting them together tho...The fact that he just shed and she's only got a couple weeks of quarantine left...She's eaten everytime, shedded in 1 piece and been pooing Just as she should.:)

I get tempted too when I think about missing the whole season all together, but then I get over it when I remind myself the incubation period of bacteria and viruses...

I don't know, it's not so much missing the season as it is knowing that both animals are wanting to go at it... My males producing the sperm and she's been hanging out in the cooler side of the tank alot lately... (my guess trying to develope follicles?)
