BP hybrids?

Just a question of curiosity, what hybrids have been produced with BPs?

Have any except the blood x ball proven fertile?

Do some hybrids fail to thrive?

Just trying to understand a bit more of python physiology.

carpet x ball

burm x ball

woma x ball


As far as I know, all of the ball hybrids live normal lives, even reproducing "mud blood" babies.


....yes freakin HARRY POTTER!!!

anyone tried ball x retic(dwarf or super dwarf might be possible???)

Just reaching here, but I imagine the shear size difference would make this impossible, not that a burm is much different, dont know why my mind thinks like that though.

I have still been wanting to see that burm x ball i just cant imagine what it would look like. (pics anyone)

burmball

That's a pretty cool looking snake.

:O That burmball is gorgeous. I wonder how big it gets.

Burm x Ball = Ballmese

I have seen them in person and they are very cool looking snakes. I am not big on crossings but that cross is pretty neat.

There is also the Ball x Angolan not a big stretch there, but cool none the less.

there was a wall and carpall on ks like 2 days ago
ball+woma=wall http://market.kingsnake.com/detail.php?cat=7&de=649307
jungle carpet python+ball=carpall

the ball has been crossed with the short tail making superballs which have then been bred back to a ball making mongrels. roussis sells them. i haven't herd of anyone doing a blood ball cross.

i think the super dwarf X ball would work if the blood ball works. full adult bloods are pretty big so???

if you are into hybrids there is a forum for them called hybridhaven.net. its kinda cool but there is not alot of activity. the best hybrid IMO is the carphondroXGTP. they look amazing!

I wouldn't think it would work too well. Even though Super Dwarves are smaller than any other Retic, there is still a vast majority of developmental differences between the two, such as girth. Bloods and Balls share a similar girth, body shape, and development....where as Retics and Balls don't. This is one of the reasons the Retic x Burm, and Burm x Ball have been so difficult. I'd think Amethystine x Retic would work much better.

I have noticed that one hybrid is missing from the list thus far into the thread. The Angolan x Ball. I realize this is not as much of a stretch for the simple fact that their natural ranges do cross, but it is still a hybrid. It's been awhile since I have seen one, but they were done a number of years ago. This hybrid I find the most unsettling, as the captive population of Angolans is still not that great, and I don't know why you would want to "muddy" the Angolans at htis stage of their population.

Just my .02 cents.

the link is down for the ball x woma...i really wanted to see it

Good point there Money Bags, Angolans are hard to come and now that people are crosses them at this point is ridiculous.

my godd thats amazing! Imagine what it would look like now crossed back to say a spider or a lesser that would be awesome to see, I think lol.

I saw a ball x angolan at N.E.R.D. It was pretty cool looking.
