New arrivals :)

It took a while to get these guys home, now I know best to finish orders before fall sets in, or wait all the way through winter.. but Finally I'm headed in the right direction.

My 07 VPI Axanthic from 8ball :D Named Tux :D he arrived last week.

These two have quite a ways ahead of them, But I'm already hoping for the snow to come :)

They are beautiful!! I am sad that the albino looks a wee bit... what is that? Is that her backbone or the 2 muscles on either side of the backbone? I can't imagine that she would be underweight- Adam takes A+ care of his snakes!
Lucky you, a chance of snow this winter :D

i love the axanthics!!!


thats definetly a beaut.

oh sorry i didnt specify the albino isint from adam, but those are her side muscles, when she coils in certain ways there is a noticable ridge. as i said nothing a few meals should fix up, shes got a lot of time.

Could someone please elaborate on this a bit? Is any sign of ridge in the back indication of a BP being underweight???

JonV

I wouldnt say 'any' sign, ...if the snake has a obvious consistent ridge and its body is looking *triangular* thats a clear indication of under weight, if you can see the ridges in its spine, thats probably severly underweight.

Hey congrats On the pick ups. I might be missing something here and I swear its wont be the first time but adams cards says its a Het Axanthic not an axanthic or am I missing that part??

Either way Great looking little snake I'd be happy to have them too.

It does say het on there, but i think its refering to his mother and father, , his mother being the het axanthic and thus he got labeled under her I suppose :P

But the id number says het....

Wow, Ed, great catch! To the OP: Give Adam a call; seems like a typo!!

Hmmm, I think maybe you need to check with Adam on that. The ID says Het Axanthic. I checked my paperwork from Adam from my het pied and het hypo and they both have the ID as hetpiedXXX and hethypoXXX like yours has hetaxaXXX

To me - it reads that you purchased a het axanthic, not an axanthic. Look at the receipt too - it probably says het as well.

Oh jeez....running to check all of my paperwork..... :bolt:

EDIT> Okay, my axanthic from Adam says: ID: axa07-xxxxx
So, yours is a typo. Just let him know; he'll get the paper work out to you in a heartbeat.

Guys.. THAT is an Axanthic.. The paperwork states Axanthic under Type. Adam may have just made a mistake with the labeling. No biggie.

Yeah, of course it's an ax, but I feel that paperwork is very important and is the way to prove future clutches. 'Type' just means it's a VPI ax and not a TSK ax (for example).

Yeah, you might wanna let Adam know...but you've got two BEAUTIFUL snakes there!!! Congratulations!

Very nice pair, get that albino fattened up :gj:

I'll be giving him a call today, I probably would have never noticed that, since this is my first ball from adam, I thouhgt it was all peachy keen

Oh, you can't go wrong with purchasing a ball from Adam, he has some awesome, very healthy snakes, you don't have to worry about that. Just a type on the ID number section of the paperwork, he will correct it in no time. With as much as he has going on I think he did a pretty good job getting it to you with only one mistake, he has his plate full right now. ;)
