Just curious about why you have a problem with it and would consider anyone breeding it just doing it out of greed?

i'm under the same questioning as pfan151 as to what the issue is as far as not breeding these? it seems to me to be an awesome snake unless we're missing some detail?

I'm probably gonna' get crushed for this, but here goes....

I would not breed this BP. Color morphs are one thing, but this is a serious defect. No different than an Albino born without eyes....don't see a lot of people lining up to make more of those. Now I know there's a school of thought that says all color morphs are defects as well, because they don't look like a Normal. Not a school of thought that I subscribe to, but I'm sure that arguemnt will be brought up.

To me a BP born without scales or heat pits is the same as a human born with flippers...it just ain't right.

Having said all that, I have no doubt someone will breed this little freak, provided it's not sterile (one can always hope), and people will line up to pay stupid amounts of money for them. To each their own...you won't have to stand in line behind me to buy one.

Me and my future wife are going to try and produce a skinless human.

Should be cool.

I heard that it is healthy and eats without issue. I do not think that it is an anymore danger from a rat bite then any other ball python. If anyone has ever seen, or seen a picture, of a ball python with a rat bite, the scales do not seem to help. The teeth will go right through them.

I think the scaleless ball pythons is very cool, and would love to have one.

I agree with you.

I'd be way too worried about things that could be wrong with it that I can't see...it's nifty, but I don't think I'd want one O.o

This really isn't fair to the mites. I mean without scales.. where is there to hide? Ticks too. They just stand no chance.

I hate these snakes.
