    I will post the pics. Although if she is all scarred up, I'm not sure I'll take her : I think I want a normal thats lighter with more blushing.

    Well don't buy her if she's not "the one". When you find the snake that you just have to have...you'll know.

    If you have something dark to breed to her she might make some killer black pastels or ....

    Emailed the breeder and told her I'm gonna pass on the normal, I didn't even wait for the second pictures. She really just wasn't up to my breeding standards when it comes to normals, I'm just being desperate. I want to produce animals that are beautiful that I like and that buyers will like, not just animals I produced because the mom was real cheap. I'm happy to say though, I've been emailing Brian Gundy in California and will most likely be purchasing one of his gold blush normal females. His normals have insanely high contrast and will look great bred to my pastel and the mojave I'll be getting next year. I would also like to say, he's a great person to deal with so far.

    I'll post pictures as soon as the deal is sealed, but for now, check out his website or youtube videos. IMO, I've never seen hotter normals.

    (Good example of his normals)

    Glad to hear you're not being rushy, and taking the time to find a perfect snake... the one pictured above is pretty cool, but if it's not what you're looking for don't get her! I almost made the same mistake last year, and a few people here talked me out of it. One poster actually ended up selling me a beautiful girl, who made me some gorgeous babies - my Mojave clutch that's hatching now.

    Good choice on Brian Gundy, as I've met him & his snakes, and he's a great guy. I held his MONSTER red-tail boa at the San Mateo show, and that thing was ridiculously heavy... she's super sweet, though. I don't think you can go wrong with his snakes!

    Lola, the hatchlings in the video look exactly like the one he's possibly selling me. And yeah, he seems like he's a great guy! Very prompt about emailing me back and seems very knowledgable.

    My Normal male has minor scarring, just one little area. im pretty sure that was result in a bad shed, when i had first got him I didnt have my humidity right. If its a breeder you shouldnt worry, scars arent genetic

    Yeah but like I said, she's just not up to my breeding standards. Its not the scarring that makes me not want her.

    Re: Got a Picture of the Normal Female Breeder I'm Buying

    Firstoff as a breeder, I would be upfront with a potential customer if there were ANY cosmetic issues with the animal I was selling, second Gundy is a legend. Just take things slow when making new purchases unless you come across something spectacular, do alot of shopping around. Many morphs in my collection have taken months if not a year or more to find exactly what I'm looking for. If your intentions are breeding, do you have plans for these animals when/if you go off to college? There are many many factors to consider with breeding, its a totally dif world and can be a very expensive venture.
