First hatchling ever! :D

Hi ! :carrot: :carrot:
I just wanted to share some pics with you guys.
I've been working for that since almost one years and finally today, 4 little head were looking at me when i checked the incubator.
Thx a lot to the bp.net community for tons of information i did not find anywhere else.
Here 2 pics i just took more to come later :carrot: :) :carrot: :rolleye2:

Two of the head are not the same colors as the 2 other but both parent are normal.
I'm a little worried is it normal?

Tyvm for looking and sry for my English, I'm learning everyday reading bp.net :)

Holy cow! Is that a Hypo???
It sure looks gorgeous :eek:

Please, post some more pictures after it sheds :carrot:

congrats! that def. doesn't look like a normal to me!

Very Nice looking snakes right there. I was thinking a hypo as well, the only thing I know of that can cause changes in a snakes physical appearance without being a genetic trait would be varying swings in the incubating temperatures. Are you sure both parents where normal and not heterozygous for some other trait? Post some pics when they come out of the eggs for sure!

Congrats! I'm not sure I'd leap the gun and call it a hypo let. I'd wait until after it sheds for the first time.

Yep a normal but hey I'm a nice guy I'll give you fifty bucks for it unsexed and even pay shipping!!

J/k

Nice hypo! Either your joking or you've got a horseshoe tucked away where the sun don't shine. Either way congrats!!!

omg!! :carrot:
Are you guys serious? Both parent doesn't look like hypo at all.
If those are hypo, it means that both parent are het ?? or hypo+het ?? :confused:
I just checked the min/max on the herpstats of the incubator and the max were 90.1F so no spike occurs.
I looked again few min ago : two little black head, two *purpleish* and 1 egg to go.
I'll post some pics when they come out and after they shed.
But its almost impossible that both are het :( :confused:

thx for looking :) :sunny:
Frank

edit* Mom and dad are w/c from different pet store

Congrats you are a lucky ass fella. It is either a ghost or a caramel albino hard to tell by the picture. Congrats man.

Congrats Frank you have your own line of Hypos.

Hi,

Congratulations!!:rockon:

It definately looks intresting but once you've had the shed you should have a better idea.

Not sharing pictures would be almost unforgiveable at that point.:P

It would be awesome if your first ever hatchlings were a new line of morphs.:eek: :carrot: :carrot: :carrot: :carrot:

But just breeding them at all is a great achievement.

Oh man I love the purple color hypos give off - did anyone see that hypo g-stripe?? SICK!
Congrats man!

Wait - r u serious???? I posted, and then you responded. You seriously bred 2 unknowingly het for hypos?? Wow - jealousy. right here.

SO PRETTY!!! Uber congrates!

This is a pretty interesting thread.

They certainly look hypo to me. I must say, it has to be a pleasant surprise to hatch 2000$+ worth of babies from a supposed normal x normal paring, lmao. Good job!!!

Congrats on your new Hypos. I would love to see pics after they hatch and shed. I would say that you are lucky to unknowingly pair up a pair of Het Hypos together, as the odds are definitely against you. Where/when did you get the parents? Do you know if they were farmed babies?

Those really do look like hypos to me :)

Hi,
First tyvm for all the comments. :sunny:
I still cant belive it.
I just got back from school and its been a very long day.
I checked the incubator and only 1 normal is out yet. :rolleye2:

Tim: I bought the female in 2002 from a petstore and the guys told me she was wild caught.
I got the male from from a different petstore in January 2006. The girl told me they had w/c and c/b in the same tank. I dont think they would place a w/c with c/b so i guess they all w/c.

Pictures as soon as i can :carrot: :sabduel: :carrot: :carrot: :taz:
thx

Frank

Update !!
Here the pic 2 are out!!!
Tell me what you think plzzzzz :taz: :rolleye2: :taz:

thx

Hi,


Yup that looks special alright.:sweeet:

Remember if it does turn out to be something (you will be more certain after a couple of sheds) then the normals are possible hets for it as well.:D

keep the pictures coming.:rockon:

In fact can I request one of the belly patterns of the specials (mid body-ish to tail if they squirm and you cant get all of it.:) ) ?



dr del

Wow, that is a nice hypo!

Derek brings up a very interesting point. I would definitely say that that is a Hypo from the picture, but remeber that Hypos do shed clear (meaning that there is no pattern on the shed), so it will be easy to identify those as Hypos after their first shed.

This is nuts. The end.

Thats a hypo with 100% certainty............and a dang nice one at that

i think im speaking for everyone when i say that you are living one of the bp breeding dreams right now. FREAKING AWESOME! Hope im just as lucky :D

Wow from a pet store!!!! Thats amazing.... :rockon: man good for you. :salute:

Hi,
I just wanted to do a quick update before i get to work :)
4 are out of the eggs.
2 Special and 2 normal
Last head just poped and its *purpleish* too! :sunny: :taz:
Group picture as soon as the last one is out.

Tim: Tyvm for the info it will be easy to see indeed if shed are always clear.

Dr.Del: Ill get a shot of the belly as soon as i can

thx for looking everybody :)

We hear, all the time, new people asking, "I just got my new bp at Wal-Pets-Mart-Co, how do I know what its het for?" And the standard reply is "If you got it at Wal-Pets-Mart-Co, its not a het, its a normal. Sellers know its a het, and price it accordingly." You, my friend, seem to be proving what we should all know deep inside. The morphs we have are wild occuring. Its not that our wc/ch snakes aren't het, its that IF they are, proving it would be horribly difficult, because we don't know what genes to put with it, if any!

Just speculating here, but my guess is that your male is CB. I've heard more than one breeder state that he dumps his male hets on the wholesale market to pet stores to be sold as normals. You really lucked out getting a male het that "matches up" to your possible CH/WC female! All this assuming that your babies are truly Hypos, which they sure appear to be. You might want to ask the store where you bought your male where they buy their snakes. If they can give you a breeder's name, contact the breeder and ask him about het hypo males.

How many eggs total? So far, 2 normals and 3 possible hypos? Fantastic odds for het to het breeding! Should be 25% normal, 25% hypo, 50% het. Even a homo to het should give you 50% hypo and 50% het. Somebody is smiling on you!!!!!!

I'm stoked for you!!! That's the kind of luck I'd like to have!

Hi guys,
The first "special" shed today while i was at work. :taz: :)
I checked a few time and the shed is clear.
I tried to take it for a belly shot but he didnt seems to like it.( hehe he got me 2 time).
I'm waiting for all the baby to shed for group picture.
The one who just shed seem to glow !! :sunny:

Pretty amazing :eek:

Daaaaang.. Care to buy me a lotto ticket with that luck? :D

Wow, what luck. Little beauties you have there too.

Hope to see more pics of these little guys.

WOW that is amazing. Congratulations to you. They are beautiful babies. I can't wait to see more pics.

Cool nice looking babies.Good luck with them. Could you post a group pic or 2 of all the babies together. Maybe a few of mom and dad too. Oh if you can find out for sure if they were imports or not. Im not sure on how all the naming works,but if there imports. I think you can name them. A new line of hypo or something like that. Im not sure but never no.

That is like the most believeable unbelievable thing, lol. Incredible! KEEP THEM ALL!

Just wanted to know how they were doing and if we could see more pictures :) That is soooo awsome and congrats.

Yes, I most definitely demand recent pics. :-D

Hi all :)
Sorry if i didnt post any other pic i've been very busy with school and work.
So far, 4 have shed (im still waiting for one normal who is a lot smaller than the other).
I've been able to talk with the owners of the petshop were i bought my male in 2006. He told me that each years, he throw a few 50% het yellow ghost and piedball male with the normal. :cool:
As you can see with those picture, the color changed a bit.
I had a very hard time taking picture of those snake, i tried almost any kind of light i could find, but im not able to get the right colors ("lavender") to show. :(
Tell me what you think :D

Frank :rolleye2:

That looks like a hypo head! Very cool! No need to wish you good luck, you got it already! :rockon: with your bad self!

Congrats, :sweeet:
I never have that kind of luck!!!

woow amazing. such a beautiful discovery. congrats man. I love hypos. :carrot: :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:

Wow - simply the most incredible story I have heard (about ball pythons anyways)!


Congrats on this - they are beautiful !!!!! :rockon:

Hmm your ball python is faded.....off color. Must be a defect! If you would like I can take that defective ball python off your hands for you ;)

You are a lucky man! Most anyone who breeds BPs would love this to happen!

INCREDIBLE! That is so cool. CONGRATS!! I am DYING for more pictures, too. Are you able to sleep, or does this keep you up at night b/c you are too excited?!

I might have to do some asking around at local pet shops and see who they got their bps from, lol. That really is awesome.

After seeing this Im going to breed a few of the pet shop balls that i have. Ill be holding back the babies to breed back. Never know could get something.

Can we get some more pictures of these guys now that they are a little older?
