Yeah, here's a belly pic. I'm not real familiar with the differences between the harli's and the wides, but from what I was finding was that they were very similar? What are the distinguishing factors between the two, especially when there is this much striping?

Here's a link to where I was reading a little about them. The original here looks similar to mine, and some of the "wide stripe" babies here have the striped bellies. I don't know how accurate they are with what names they are using, but I'm excited to see the progress they've made with this project, and I'm hoping I can see similar results with her in the future. If you notice at the top of this link, they actually just call it a "Harlequin Wide Stripe Ball Python"

Thanks, the jungle mojave is definitely my favorite out of all of my collection right now... And the striped female is new, hasn't even been here a week, but I love stripes and she's really growing on me... :)

Thanks, I'd really like to get that mojave with her and see if I might get lucky with some striped mojaves. I'm not expecting the jungle-gene to play into it, but that would be cool too!! :gj:

That Mojave and Wide Stripe are to die for :tongue2:

Love the blushes on those Pastels too.

Very nice Bps and awesome pictures!!

Your spider glows! for a second i thought i was comeing on to a honey bee! your mojave is great too

Really gorgeous group,

Very nice pictures too, colors look very rich.

Blake,
They all look great. What a solid collection of animals that should make for some interesting crosses and offspring in the future.

thanks, I really appreciate the comments everyone... well I ended up taking a "few" more pics today so I'll just add them onto this thread if that's okay... :)

and then a wierd male - hopefully he'll turn out to be something. He has obvious bright coloration, tons of blushing, kind of striped, single spot markings (similar to a mojave maybe?), wierd neck pattern behind head, and a pretty belly...

he was so anxious to breed, that he didn't even realize he was trying to breed himself... :D

and then here are a few other hopeful breedings in progress... these two are just cuddling for the time being but they've only been together about 24 hours. Male pastel with a high yellow, head spot normal female... that's the normal's head in the pic...
