My plans in the future are breeding the male spider to the female normal because by the time shes ready to breed he will, hopefully :D.
Thanks for looking!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

They look beautiful! :D

Thank you!!!!!!! ladyohh

i know i am just so excited, hopefully ill have some spiders in the future.

Btw i picked the spider out from his HIGH white sides :D

Hes only two days old!!!:O He is very nice though, the high white is fantastic:)

i know hes so little its funny lol
i just have to wait til he sheds to offer him a little rat

Nice spider but I would have waited its only 2 days old.. and hasnt even had its first shed or meal...Hopefully you live close to him. Good looking snake though.
Kevin

yes 17 minutes away
he is a great guy and he said if i have any questions or something happens to call him

super cute, congrats :gj:

Sooooooo little and cute!

Nice spider....I just wouldn't have bought him until he shed and had a few meals in him!

I bet you could have worked out a deal to leave the spider there until he was a little more started. But this way you are getting experience with a newborn hatchling, so when you hatch out a full clutch of them, it won't be your first time. And it sounds like you have some good help super close by if you need it!

Of course we'll require an update when he sheds & eats for you! With new pics of course!

I know thats what i was thinking about when i bought him :D
Of course i will for this forum, i have that feeling he will eat (i was putting his waterbowl in there and sucka tagged me on the finger, lol)

awww, super cute!! look how smooth the spider's skin is!!

He looks slimy but otherwise a stunning little spider :gj:.

Arent good breeders supposed to wait untill they have eaten and shed to let an animal go?


I thought that was just like a given?

lovely snakes, congrats that baby is precious!

Congrats :gj:

Bob Clark has alot more experiance than other python breeders out there, hes been doing what he does forever, and he is only 17 minutes away from

I dont know this "GOOD" breeder thing your talking about

Hey Pat, I always thought that first shed and 3-4 feedings was SOP as well....

It's SOP around here for sure. Although everyone has their own way of doing things...........

Cheers,
Kat

whats that supposed to mean?

dito!! actually my breeder wont even let me have mine until they are post shed & have a few meals in them!! he gladly holds the snakes i want & has done it

Hi,

That is the normal procedure - but 17 minutes away in an emergency does make a difference.

It means that I, personally, go by the first shed and 4-5 meals before releasing any babies method, but there are a variety of ideologies and ways of doing things within the community. To each his own.
