    Paragon ball pythons

    I just happened across one today (online not in person) and thought they were AMAZING. Has anyone ever seen one anywhere? How much does one of those go for, and what are they the result of (what mutations were bred)?

    Re: Paragon ball pythons

    The only "paragon" ball python i've seen was on one page, and i also saw what looked to be the same snake on a different page named "Toffee ball"

    If it's the toffee ball you're talking about, the site I found it on says it came out of africa and this year (2007) it has bred but the eggs have not hatched out yet.

    http://www.theurbanpython.com/mainpa...ffee_ball.html

    There's where I found the information. Hope that helps!

    Re: Paragon ball pythons

    The "paragon" ball is owned by Gail Thorpe (?) and the website is http://www.renaissancereptiles.com/home/ .

    Only time will tell if either of these are genetic and/or compatible lines.

    Hadn't seen this one, I just know that the paragon/toffee ball were thought to be the same from the book Designer Morphs, they're just waiting to be proved out!

    I'm excited about it. I <3 spiders, and my wife loves lessers, we both love that toffee

    Well of course they are two different snakes. But without breeding them together or any of their offspring will anyone know for sure.
    Just step back and look at the different lines of axanthics. Same gene but incompatible.

    Re: Paragon ball pythons

    I have heard they are having trouble getting it to breed. Also heard there was one brought in from Africa this year. I am not sure if it is for sale or not.
