How Old

How old do these guys have to get before you start wanting to sell them??? I just haven't been able to work up the motivation

Like a good father, I take equal pictures of all the children.

And last but not least (not counting #2 who is taking too long to shed)

Those are some great pics!Nice snakes also.I usually don't sell anything until I've seen them eat at least 3 or 4 times.I have given a few "naturals" away but,I haven't sold any candycanes or okeetees.I'm afraid I'll get rid of something that I'll regret later. lol! They change so much. jeff

I agree. Some breeders I know wait for their first shed to have been completed as well

Well I know that you are supposed to wait until they eat 2-3 pinks, and all that. They have actually eaten 5-6 each. I just can't seem to work up the motivation to make a flyer to start selling them! Prepare for another pair of pics, #2 is shedding! He's my favorite, has awesome pattern and color.

I keep saying he, but all 6 of my baby snakes ended up being female! Is there a market for an all female gene?

This little girl finally shed like her sisters. I love her wide borders and merging saddles.
