Hello everyone!
I'm new to BP.net, even though I joined quite a while ago. I've been a reptile hobbyist for years but started out with crested geckos. At this point my rhacodactylus collection has expanded to include gargoyle geckos and a chahoua, but my 'breeding' attention is turning to the wonderful (comparative) predictability of ball pythons.
So far I just have a few young snakes, but I do have future projects planned.
Some of these photos are a bit old. I promise to update as soon as the weather improves for outside pics.I don't think my snakes would enjoy the snow.
--
Hot Wheels, a normal female that I picked up at a show. I chose her for her oddly light coloration, though of course it is starting to brown out.
(And more recently, browner--)
--
Tonka Truck, a pastel male that I purchased from a local breeder.
--
Matchbox, another normal female from who-knows-where. Has a curiously clean white belly. Sorry but I only have one pic at the moment.
--
Legos, a cinny female.

And finally, a VPI Axanthic that I just purchased on Breeder's Circle. He is pending better weather, so I have not received him yet.

At any rate, as you can tell by the tiny sizes of all of my snakes, I am not going to be breeding for a couple of years. In April I will be buying a mojave female or pair from one of the local breeders. I plan to work on several axanthic projects including producing the axanthic mojave (which I'm sure will be more prevalent by the time I get to it! But that's okay). I also plan to determine whether the clean white belly in Matchbox has any significance. Until then, they make great pets!
Here's me with a friend's snake.
