Dont get caught with your pants down!!

OZZ1978 Jun 24, 2008 11:50 AM

Today I had a hopper left over from feeding the little ones and everyone else was still eating so I gave it to this guy. Well he missed, came flying out of the tub, landed on the ground and nailed the first thing that moved ... which was my pants! lol ... I got some pics snapped he wouldnt let go so finally I had to literally take my pants off and put him under running water ...

Gotta love those kings ...

Gracias ... Rainer is the one that produced him I was lucky enough to snag him.

Hes a nice solid animal Im glad I got ahold of him. He eats everytime and bred my axanthic female right away...

I've had to put my finger under water for the same reason.

ZFelicien Jun 24, 2008 01:36 PM

is that snake a female?...

it looks like one I got from Brandon Osborne in `04... I sold it to a very nice lady (I can't recall the name)

I wish I kept it as I think there is something to consider with the stripping... she was poss. het for hypo as well so it would've been a cool project "genetic stripped" hypo, lavender, axanthics, snows, etc...

That is my female I've had her and the male since they were hatchlings about 4 years ago. I bred them this year but not seen any eggs yet. Here is the male she bred with. Buddy.

ZFelicien Jun 24, 2008 01:38 PM

well after comparing pix it's not the same snake but seems to be the same "thing" at work... cool project on your hands either way

Isn't that how you're supposed to do it?
Maybe that's why I get strange looks at the bar.

That's hilarious! But you know...I would feed that thing some tasty nylon. Cotton has too much fiber.
