    They do have CBB snakes in Africa, especially morphs.

    Re: Sandblast

    I think the little wink .. in the pic. covers that.

    Noah is the ONLY person breeding in Africa, and if he has a sandblast he would be getting top $$ from a American breeder, not playing around waiting to get the $$.

    Hate to be a d*** but as I said before this sounds like a bunch of b.s !!

    I know... why wouldn't you think a Sandblast was CBB in Africa? New Ball morphs are starting to get scarce, so I wouldn't doubt it that some people over there are breeding the scarce stuff and doling them out occasionally to keep the prices high.

    Anyway, I'm not defending the OP. It does seem kind of strange that a person would get a Ball 8 months ago and is now getting some very rare morphs, but if it's true then more power to them.

    Re: Sandblast

    As far as the Sandblast -- I agree with Josh. Josh knows the import players both in U.S. and over in Africa. I trust his opinion most in this area.

    As for people seeming to go diving head-first into balls with no regard for human life -- mostly THEIR OWN. I can only report that I know a guy that went from having 0 Ball Pythons to over 400 in just under 12 months!!! Some people just go over the deep end.

    I won't "out him" online because that would not be cool.

    Hey!!! That reminds me I have to get ready to feed tonight. I've got rats and mice coming -- about 400!!!!!!

    Re: Sandblast

    The big US breeders don't have a monopoly on new morph purchasing power. Maybe they are mostly burned out with the drop in the market here and are very cautious about paying big bucks for new stuff now. Especially stuff that is already established cb in Africa. That said, I have no idea if this thread is legit or not, I just don’t see a strong reason to discount it.

    I don't a strong reason to believe it either, that's the problem....
