well lil dude wanted to know if he could have a sleep over at ambers place this year look at him he is so sad

Lil dude is beautiful!!!!

Amber won't be ready for sleep overs this year. She was a bit of a picky eater and is only about half the size she could be. Good news though, she's recently decided she's starved and is eating everything in sight as long as it's not too big. Have three weeks in a row of two small mice each week.

well thats a tough one i have had him now for about hmm a year or so now the guy i got him from said he had him for about 2 years and was a proven breeder already now his size makes me wanna think different. but of course i dont know how they were feeding him but i only do one small rat a week somehting to barely put a lump in i dont like feeding my males large meals evry week or even larger meals every other week just enough for a full tummy once a week. he does have HUGE spurs tho lol not that that matters to much. he does have a iffy temper when misted he usualy strikes but when it comes to handling him its hook out and slowly slide hand under and can usualy be handled and moved etc without a bite he is not evil just not trust worthy main thing is DONT have other ppl walking around he will stike at them like crazy. soor i can be of more help on is background he just needs a girly friend and we all know how much i like amber lol but im giving my girl this year off since she didnt go this past year i want her even bigger for next years give her one more year of maturity and one more year of feeding for extra weight etc.

only if he is goin with that hypo lol and i get some babies lol still waiting on some pics lol

an anery or perhaps Dave's fella Lefty with an anery cuz of their "lighter" colors meaning little to no reds so maybe lighter colored anery and that means lighter color ghosts perhaps. Hell if that is how it might work I might have to save back the dullest hypo I produce to make some double hets for ghost while I'm thinking about that in 3 years lol but not to hard you might hurt my feelings. I haven't started on the pics though so give me a week or so but it's over 100 easily with the index and that means no outside for Bob so I'm staying my a-- inside for the time being. I am in the process of getting a male het for my hypo from Mike and you should try and pick up a trio from him or a pair from Dave and get in on the hypo project while it's still young but their not for everyone but they are truly beautiful in person just like your male
Bob

i would love to but only projects i am putting money into right now is herpstat pro and maybe a black pastel ball python if i find one nice enough and cvheap enough. plus i want normal brb to breed before i go n get the het hypos but i would probly go all out n get a reg hypo lol

stat but a ball lol but you can't cuz the joke is on you. No really though real nice pastel balls look good especially the zebra-line pastels, those are friggin' hot hot hot. Yeah I wanted to get a couple of het hypos and I got a hypo instead and haven't looked back yet. I wouldn't mind having a couple of real nice normals like a high red and a high orange and a very dull light colored looking brb to mix and match some new blood but all in all I don't plan on breeding normals but I prolly would if I had 2 worthy enough lol like that male you got and something nice like Betty, Wilma, Daisy or Savannah-but I don't so I have to daydream about the morphs in the meantime but hopefully I get something special from Dave this year besides a Xmas card lol the joke's on me this time
Bob

hey nothign is wrong with pet rocks i meen umm balls lol i already got the regular pastel nice n yellow now with the black pastel i can breed to another black pastel and get a all black snake and i breed the black to a yellow i will get a peweter the options are endless lol and im in it for diff colors and cool things for me not what can i sell them for. i already got normal balls a pastel ball a pair of het piebalds and a pair of het albinos i have more balls than other species due to i can house them in smaller areas and my girly loves them to hell lol plus they are fun lil guy who actualy i have seen the same if not more action out of them at night then my BRB thats right i said it and meen it bring it lol.

That's the right way to do it Tim, work with the snakes you like and produce what you want to produce and that's what I'm going for myself but I tend to be wanting to buy more bci and bcc than brb's. Don't tell anybody I said that either that will be our secret and I won't tell nobody you are big boned lol How many balls are you keeping at your house Tim out of curiosity? I hope you get a high expression piebald but for some reason I don't care for those but then again if I saw one in my hands I would prolly drool over it as well. The ball combinations are endless I would have to agree with you though. I like the blood pythons a lot but hate the short stubby body so maybe one day when I get one it will be the next next to liking ball pythons but I have many ahead of it on the list though

Tim - I believe you live somewhat close to Chicagoland area. George Knaack has helped me quite a bit with snakes and is into Ball Pythons. His website is http://www.reptilenews.com/

He is usually at the Wheaton, IL show 2 times per month. Not sure if he attends the monthly Grayslake, IL show or not. He also distributes the Herpstats.

If he is not producing the Ball that you want, he should know someone that is.

geesh i didnt htink i let out my info like that i got stalkers now lol just kidding im in the lower part of wisconsin wich is pretty close to IL specialy where the show is held i talked to him a lil bit about the thermostat but he didnt have the black pastel i was looking for a tthe show and didnt talk to him to much abotu it. i plan on talking to brian (BHB) about them a lil more since i am probly getting a few poss hets for a buddy of mine form him so maybe grab a few more animals and get a discount lol.

I figured you lived somewhere close visiting Chicago Retile House, I believe you posted on the show in Racine, and something you or Aubrey posted hinted where you are from. I live in N. IL less than 2 miles from WI in South Beloit.

0.1 Colombian Rainbow Boa
1.0 Albino Motley Corn
1.0 Black cat

he had my female this past season but i he didnt do a good job and nothing came of it so she is getting the year of to get more mature and larger in size. him on the other hand is sying to play with amber but she is to young and he is scared to go to jail lol so now he needs a different girlfriend to play with this year. hopefully i find some1 close to do a loan type deal with either he goes there or she comes here pending who i do the loan with cause i wanna see babies be born d@m!t lol and it has to be a stellar girl his looks need to be put together with another looker i breed for looks and tempers and cause i like the animals not so i can have loads of babies to off to whoever i can for a few $$

It's a shame his last girlfriend failed in the baby making department. But he's one good looking guy I bet he can find a sexy little sorority girl for the year that make him lots of sexy little babies
