I think I'm addicted

I bought my first ball python in April, a very nice male mojave. After picking up three big female normals at the All Ohio Reptile Show today I now have eight ball pythons and three more coming on Thursday. I am definitely addicted, but I absolutely love these animals.

This is my male mojave, I got him from Tim Koppenhofer.

Here is my pair of het axanthics, I also got these from Tim.

I don't have pictures of the big normal girls yet but I also got them from Tim Koppenhofer and they are very nice. Now all I need is a female cinny, female het albino, and a few more big normal females...:D

WOW! All of those animals in just a couple months? Yep, I'd say you're addicted. lol

Best of luck with them all. They are all gorgeous!

Love em all:) Grats!

Thanks. Yeah, once I bought the first one I just haven't been able to stop.

Very nice collection!!!

We got our female het axanthic from Scott S. He's a really nice guy.

:DSweet collection! :D Yep, you're addicted for sure! Wish my collection was half the size of yours!

im doing the same thing its horrible!!! :gj: we should just go halfs lol
i started the day i joined this site less than a month ago lol

very nice! the first mojo is bomb! the spider looks a bit narrow,is he a picky eater?

Thanks for the comments.
The spider might be a bit thin but I don't think he is too thin, an unhealthy thin. He is 763 grams and about 41" (using snake measurer). As for feeding, I got him on Thursday so won't feed him for the first time until Friday and I'm not sure how consistent of an eater he was for Scott.

Awesome collection!

Looks like he has taken the breeding season off from eating! I'm sure once he's comfortable with you, he'll go back to eating. It's quite common for snakes to go off feed this time of year.

We went just as crazy just as quickly! We'd have bred this season if I'd not been pregnant/had a baby right in March. Can't wait for this coming season! Congats on your awesome new snakes.

wow...nice...

You and me both- it'll be a big adventure for us both!
