Honestly im not sure what will happen with his pattern and color. It seems to vary, some hold their dark patterns really well and some the pattern greys out a bit. The breeder told me the dam of the litter was a highly reduced pattern with extremely bright yellows. “Highlighter yellow” is how he described it. I reached out for photos of the parents but have yet to receive anything back. I picked this guy specifically because of how bright his sides and belly were compared to his littermates; they looked nice but his were on a whole other level. I’m hoping that his sides and belly stay extremely yellow or even get brighter, and that his pattern stays really dark and doesn’t fade. But only time will tell. As far as size goes I’m Prepared for up to 9 feet and heavy, but the breeder says the sire is full grown at 6feet. I always take what the vendors say with a grain of salt, it seems like a lot of people like to bend the facts to make a sale. So anyway I’m guessing 6-9 feet and heavy lol.

So, I am very interested in seeing how things go for you. Maybe a Yellow is in my future instead?
Honestly that’s a great approach to getting snakes, especially larger species. I have decided I’m not going to bring home anymore for a few years At least. I would LOVE a green, well, a male. A female would be more work than enjoyable I think at full grown size, they’re too big and heavy. Greens look awesome though! I think the leopard-esk yellow side spots on yellows are the bees knees however, it doesn’t get much better! Such a cool species. If you get one though, you had better make a post for us to follow!

I’ll post if/when I get one. I’m disappointed that Anaconda owners don’t post very often.
The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

Re: 2018 Yellow Progression
Yeah I didn’t realize how little there is compared to just about everything else. There’s a good group on Facebook called Anaconda Keepers that I joined, if you haven’t already go check it out

Lol I joined just about every reptile FB page there is. GTPs, carpets, boas, anacondas, BTS, dumerils, BCL, BCC, Gila and Beaded lizards, venomous reptiles. I just love surfing and looking at all the cool stuff and being the wallflower just reading and learning.
Amazing how much you can learn if you shut up and just watch and read

Re: 2018 Yellow Progression
Still have yet to name this guy, but I’ll get it eventually. He took his second meal with me today no problem, he ate another live rat hopper. Hopefully he’ll make the switch to frozen/thawed for his next feeding in 7 days. I also grabbed a weight on him before I fed him, he came in at 153 grams. He’s probably about 20 inches or so long, not quite 2 feet but pretty close. Even at his size now he’s got a pretty strong grip, he’s real clingy when I get him out and man can he squeeze.
