Montana Agate with a Lavender Albino/50% Het Piebald.
Breeder Notes:
-Started seeing my first mating locks of the 2025 season. One of my axanthic males locked with his female before I even had time to close the enclosure door...
-With 13:51 (males:females) for mating-15 of those females are dedicated to my new Super Blade male, assuming he does not breed this season...it brings the number of females down to 36.
-With the majority of my female breeders entering their first season-I expect about half of them to reabsorb follicles due to immaturity (no correlation to size/weight).
-All factors considered: I am realistically expecting 16-20 clutches for 2025 with a potential of many more-conditionally upon the performance of my Super Blade male.
-If I miss my double recessive goals in 2025 I will need to retain most of my female breeders...and while I do have the space...this would mean I would need to construct additional incubators for 2026.
-I have also ramped up rodent production as I have a record number of holdbacks from 2024. If I ever decide to stop keeping ball pythons-I probably have enough rodent production to open my own snake food supply business lol...
