    My new small breeding project/collection

    I'm relatively new to the forums and I've been learning a ton of useful information on this forum and appreciate everyone that contributes to it! I wanted to share my collection that I've been working on. I acquired all of the balls over the last couple of months and hope to be having some successful breeding this season. I've always loved snakes and have owned a few balls in the past but never tried breeding them.

    I'm housing them all in a melamine rack I built with 4" belly heat tape. The females are all in 41qt sterilite tubs and the males are in 28qt tubs. All the snakes are also considered pets and are treated as such and have names (most with the help of my girlfriend). All of the adults are proven breeders. All the photos were taken on my cell so they aren't the greatest quality. Without further adieu here they are.

    This is Baxter (Pastel het hypo). He was the first of the group that I bought and re-ignited my passion for these animals. He's a great eater and growing fast. He's a little guy at about 130g


    This is Diego (Pastel Butter). He is my breeder male that I will be pairing with all of my females. Hoping to get some awesome combos from him! He's about 1200g


    This is Simple Jack (Spider). He's my backup male, I got him for a killer deal that I couldn't pass up. He's a big boy at 1900g


    This is Dora (Mojave). She is quite the explorer (hence the name), she isn't shy at all an wasn't being very cooperative for the pictures. Hoping for some BELs from her! She's 1900g


    This is Carla (Spider). She has some personality! She's 2010g


    This is Deb (Normal). She's the shyest of the bunch and hasn't eaten for me yet. She's 2125g


    This is Penelope (Normal). She's insanely docile and will let my girlfriend rub and scratch her head all day long. She layed around halloween the last 2 years so I'm pairing her now, and have already seen one visual lock. She's a big girl at 2925g


    Sorry if the images are a little big! Hope you guys enjoy my small collection, I sure do!

    Simple Jack is from the movie "Tropic Thunder". Mostly just as a joke due to his typical Spider wobble head. I mean no offense by it!

    That's what I thought. I think it's pretty funny
