Double hets (Ghost & Mendota)

Kerby... Jun 19, 2006 11:41 PM

Here are some pics of my double hets.

I bred my Ghost male to a female Mendota (hypermelanistic) and produced bandeds.

Here are a few pics. I kept 1.1 warm all winter so they are larger than the rest of the clutch.

I do brumate all of my babies except for a few future breeders that I plan on breeding at 18 months.

This is the only one with a slightly aberrant pattern. The rest were bandeds.

1 more question...are any of yours W/C?

Kerby... Jun 20, 2006 07:11 AM

I have a couple of wild caught cal kings, the rest are captive bred. I do have some wild-caught snakes from Kansas and of course a few from Arizona where I live.

I make my own snake racks with melamine boards with the Rubbermaid containers (7 gal). I do not use heat tape. I just use the ambient room temps.

I breed my own rodents (rats and mice). I also built my own rack system there. I have 8 colonies of rats (1.4) for a total of 32 breeding females. In mice I have a small rack with small tubs where I have 15 colonies (1.4) and two large rack systems that have 25 colonies each (1.6). In mice I have 360 breeding females.
