Reptile & Amphibian Forums

nearing Valentines day doesn't bring out the love. No prudes in my house it's "Sex in the City", or more like sex in a small town plastic tub. This is the 3rd lock up I have witnessed in the last few weeks. Hope they are both fertile, time will tell. She is about to shed and she usually takes a big dump when she does, hope he doesn't smear himself all over it and the tub, what a mess that would be.

Hi Jeff,...........Man that Pastel came out REALLY NICE Far better than even I expected, looks like he actually got lighter with age an size. NO SHOCK as it came from Marc Bailey, GREAT ANIMALS....AREN'T you glad I talked into buying him? HA HA!!..Breeding it to that reduced patterned female should produce some great babes..........I have 6 huge females gravid right now, all laying on there sides....All appear to have gone through the POV shed so it should not be too long....Suppose I better build my incubator this week.... DO NOT USE a hovabator to incubate BP eggs!!!....I think there is a good DIY incubator design on Damon Salacies(spelling??) pages... Uses a truck sized cooler.....I suggest a spyder robotics Herpstat:I as a thermostat. Cheaper than a helix and rated better, GLK herp and the Bean farm sells them, I went through the bean farm as it was a tad cheaper.....Alternatively, I should have space in my incubator for them. I am building one big enough to handle about 15 clutches. I anticipate a total of 8-10 clutches of BPs this year, TIME WILL TELL!!!...........OH and here is a pic of my Pied male OREO sorry could not resist showing him off................God Bless, lee <

wow Lee that's a purdy one.
