This is my keeper male, the female is hopefully going to breed her Reverse Okeetee Dad this season and next year this guy will be trying his luck

Very nice Tom. Good size on him also.

Thanks Steve, but the good thing is the female is twice his size. Roughly 40-42 inches and very stocky, she is in with a male right now. I hope she is ready to rock ttyl

very nice! since they are still young in age how often do you feed them?

Nokturnel Tom Mar 19, 2007 05:00 PM

Well he was not too big around the time I was cooling adults so I kept him up and fed him hoppers, and not very much either. He was not going to be in any project this season and was not grwoing very fast so I just let him eat at a pace he seemed OK with which was a few hoppers ever 2 weeks or so.

ps. the female eats adult mice 2 and 3 at a time every 7-10 days

He's very handsome. I can see why he's a keeper.

Nokturnel Tom Mar 19, 2007 04:58 PM

Thanks, he is from a clutch sired by 4 males. 3 Creamsicles and 1 Reverse Okeetee. The clutch showed babies resembling all the different fathers but this one looks like a combo of two of them??? Regardless he will bred his very Reverse Okeetee looking mate next year and my fave thing about her is she has tons of green on her. Can't wait to see their babies. Tom Stevens
