Check out my Male Angolan

JJ_Snakes Nov 07, 2006 11:27 AM

Hello all!
This is my first time posting here but I thought I would show off my male angolan. He is about 400 grams and loves to eat. I just love how they feel. Their scales are like beads.
Thanks!

Angolans are sweet!

Ok, I'm not breeding it to a ball python.
Thanks for the compliment.

Hey, I believe you! And nice snake(s).

Can you share with us what conclusions you wished us to draw by posting a photograph of the two species together? Do you normally cage them together?

Thanks,
Joan

No conclusions. Just a picture of my Angolan. Thanks

Regardless to whether this poster is looking to produce hybrids...I think that it is interesting to see how hobbies differ. Angolians are hard to find in captivity and in the wild for that matter, I think that we should work on preserving the species by captive breeding with other Angolians! I also own dart frogs, and if you even mention you have darts of different species together you are going to be slammed. I guess the difference is that there is no money in hybrid darts...people are "stupid enough" in my opinion to spend thousands of dollars on a hybrid snake, in which the vast majority are useless and unbreedable at that point.

My two cents!

Amy, a vast number more hybrid snakes have proven to be perfectly fertile than those that have not so please explain what you mean by "unbreedable".
Also, if it's a snake that you don't breed or "can't" breed, why would it be useless as well?

This is quite funny! I don't remember asking for peoples opinion on hybrids. LOL!
I do plan on producing a few hybrids but will mainly focus on producing more angolans! LOL!
These are for my personal collection! Thats the funny thing about America.... Its a free county.
