    I think they would be fun to own. The only concern I have is their size compared to me. I'm 5'3 on a good day and I'm not sure if I could handle their adult size.

    For names, are there any themes you like? Aragorn and Arwen come to mind for a couple name. Lol.
    Check out Derek Roddy's website. He has pictures of his adult breeders there. You can get an idea of how they should look.
    I also am a fan of k brothers channel. To be honest most of their bhp's are too fat imo. It shows in how few hatchlings they produce compared to how many breeders they have. They do have some big ones though!
    As for the names, I have no themes. I honestly have no idea at this point.

    Here's a fairly large one I had the pleasure of handling at the 2008 San Jose Reptile Show (hopefully photobucket link works, not sure if it will) I'm just a tad over 5'5 for size reference.
    They are so awesome, I don't know if I will ever own one but I will enjoy living vicariously through your updates!

    So here is our first update, for once the snakes have cooperated and both shed on the same day so I was able to get some pictures. The quality is not that great as I use my phone and it is too cold to take them outside and make use of natural lighting. One day I will invest is a proper camera and photo box. Baby steps I guess.
    Anyhow, a little more info on these guys. I actually have to correct my initial post regarding the lines these guys came from. Initially I assumed the female and male had originated from Derek's yellow jacket line. I assumed this because that is what we had been talking about for a very long time. I also assumed that because the female was so yellow in the pictures. After reviewing the parents and following the lineage of both of them it appears the female came from his pinstripe line, the male came from parents Derek produced that have produced high yellow, pinstripe and tiger bhp's. Both have grand parents going all the way back to Lazik/Goergen lines. Tiger is an incomplete dominant and a gene we plan on working with in the future. Pinstripe and yellowjacket are line bred so this pair technically could go either or both ways depending on what is produced and what we choose to hold back and continue working with. Either way we are still very excited. Hopefully by this time next year we will have also added a pair of tigers and axanthics to the program.
    Anyhow, on to the pictures;
    Here is our female. Her colors are much brighter in person, this camera phone does not do either justice.

    And our male.


    Both are doing great. The female has a bit of an attitude and the male is pretty chill, both still have the flighty nature of baby snakes.

    So it warmed up a bit yesterday so I decided to bring the bhp's out for a little exploration time in the front yard. Our male woma had just shed too so I got a couple of pics of him as well. Enjoy
