    Re: het pied females not breeding for 5 years?
    I have a 100% het pied female, she has locked up more than three times with the 100% het pied male. The poss het pieds females that are big enough have also locked up with him.
    I cannot say that they have laid eggs yet, but at the oldest they are 2.5 years old.
    Does this help?

    They are still ball pythons and will mature sexually at the same average rate as other female bps.

    I wouldn't necessarily assume that all morphs are cosmetic only changes. As more people get enough morph experience to make reliable generalizations we may find that some of the mutant genes do make changes that are more than skin deep and effect things like how well the animals grow/reproduce and perhaps even things like personality.

    Joe told me the same thing a few months back ... except in my case he said it was the pied females, not the hets. He was explaining to me that I would be better off selling my pied female and getting into something different :rolleyes:, or buying some of their pied hets. He said their pieds were into their 5th years and finally breeding, so I told him I would be fine if my pied female took 5 years to breed .... I would be just as happy.

    Like Vaughn said, contact Peter Kahl of you want to know about pieds ....

    How do you know they were doing very well??? Did you see their books? Not everyone that claims to be the biggest ball python producer in the world actually is...

    What most people don't realize is that Joe claimed to be the BIGGEST Ball breeder... until he discovered Trimspa. :8:

    going by what joe said they were doing well. on fauna it seemed like quite a few people were coming forward and saying they did buy from him, but who knows

    Anyone can say they are doing well. Watch, I sold $1,000,000 worth of ball pythons last month. See it's easy, not true but very easy to say. I have heard from a couple of sources that they actually produced a pretty small amount of BP's.

    I spoke to Joe a while back when I first saw all of the threads starting up about MKR... He seemed to be bragging about how many snakes he bought just as much as how many he's sold...:confused:

    I would imagine that they have a decent collection but I'm sure they buy in bulk as well so they can fill their orders when need be...

    Because EVERYONE in the business knows the real deal ... I'm lucky enough to be in a position to get the straight scoop from the big boys themselves ... the ball python world is a small one and 99% of what goes on goes on "behind the scenes". ;)

    and IF pieds did take 5 yrs to breed, so what? i really like pieds and an extra year or two wouldn't stop me from breeding them or buying them.


    i've liked g-stripes,caramels,pieds,bumblebees ever since i first saw them. haven't produced one of those yet and i'm still crazy about them.
