...I'd keep the 'pinnacle of pythons' or ever hatch any! Yes, I've been humbled. These snakes are truly the KINGS of Australia! This is a little project that I got into and honestly, I've never kept a snake quite like them before and hope to always enjoy their company. Amazing animals to say the least... If all goes well I may hatch 5 babies by the end of the week. We'll see. Hope you folks enjoy the pics! I'm on cloud 9.

A HUGE thanks goes out to Matt Turner, Derek Roddy and Tom Keogan. They all were instrumental in providing input, advice, encouragement, etc... You want a tough python taxa to reproduce? I think this is it! Hahahaha... Good times.

All the best-

Matt

Matt....that's great!!!!!!
So glad to hear they made it out.

They look great as well.

Keep us posted on the progress.
Cheers.

I've always felt that blackheads hatching were one of the most beautiful sights, they really are amazing snakes. And I have only ever seen pictures. I can't think of any other snake species that looks as nice hatching out, Woma's are close, lol. It must be a great feeling to witness and know you had so much to do with it! Congrats.

Matt,

Congratulations!
Black heads have long been my "dream" snake, and I never get tired of seeing them, or seeing babies hatch!

Now between you and Tom, I'm hoping one of you cheap b*stards will send me a pair of babies on the house

Matt, Big congrats on reproducing on of the most beautiful species on the planet. It could not have happen to a greater guy. Jeff and Debbie

I appreciate the well wishing from everyone! Honestly, I still can't believe I've hatched some of these crazy snakes... Hope everyone has a great season!
