Cub scouts education talk last night! Our purple albino dwarf girl did fantastic with the kids!

Always love when it comes together like a plan for how she behaves. We also brought a ball python, carpet python, transpecos rat snake And chomper our Gila Monster. All in all a great night for us and the kids.

Yowza! Is that the 50% Jamp girl from the 2014 update video? What have you been feeding her, ponies? Man she's a beauty and obviously a gentle giant, but definitely goes to show how important it is to get genetic specifics when looking for a "dwarf". Can i ask, would a conservative feeding schedule (not starving her, of course, just conservative) have kept her smaller, or would it have only slowed the progression to this eventual size?

Same one, and yes / no - the thing about being part mainland is they can still grow. They don't all, but some do. The other thing is - in the wild dwarfs typically go for extended periods of time without eating. This results in keeping the populations smaller. In captivity, it seems heartless to place them in these same conditions so they tend to favor growth. Genetically however, pure animals are still bound by genetics and will stay small regardless of food pounding.

Yeah that mostly. The mixes of dwarf and SD stuff can be tricky. The mainland will still give influence. If say 7' is a safe estimate. However, I'd still suggest to be prepared for up to a 10' male l. Thickness would be maybe a pop can

What size enclosure do you use for males up to 10'?

4x2x18" or 6x3x18" it really depends on the individual. I had an adult male in a 6 ft and he stopped eating. Put him back in a 4' and things went back to normal.

I figured I’d post a few updated pictures of Gene. Gene is 16months old, he is 25% SD & 25% Jamp platinum
and right around 4.5’. He is by far the most amazing snake I have ever owned, he is such a puppy dog.

Gene is pretty cool!

Nice update! Good looking boy.

Figured we could bring this thread back to life. Gene gets a lot of outside time since he likes to piss every day, so he is out for at least 30 minutes a day.

Found his way into my backpack while I finished up some emails from work.


I'll bring him in the bathroom after a hot shower when he is close to shed, and he'll just sit on the towel rack for 30 minutes or so.


I made this climbing tree for him with some left over PVC I had from an install project. He loves it, he'll usually climb on it, then hell just rest. Nice part is I didn't glue is, so i'll pull it apart into 3 pieces and slide it under the couch.
