Nice, animal looks great!

Sorry, Andy forgot to tell you he uses titanium zipties. LOL!

Thanks for the great ball python! I have never seen zip-ties like those before, lol.

why doesnt that box have "live harmless reptiles" on every side of it? We are still responsible for federal regulations wether we ship overnight service or with the airlines. Anything that is going on a plane has to be labeled. I ship fedex and my boxes have "live harmless reptiles" on them. It seems like you are hiding what you are doing using the old "perishable" bs on the boxes. What is it with your fedex deal? They do not want you to meet the TSA regulations?

Hey Evan...

We cover the Lacey Act in detail on our site, in the Help section. Check it out.

There is no such requirement that you have to label your box "live harmless reptiles" on every side of the box.

The box is marked Wildlife by the label, and has an itemized packing slip readily available, as is the legal requirement.

That was fun to watch.

The anticipation, even just for the viewer.
Nevermind what YOUR heart rate was. lol

I really like that combo.
The reduced, tidy pattern looks unreal.
Or rather, it looks more like someone's quick sketch of a Pinstripe Ball.

It has me wondering what a Tiger (Enchi/Desert) Pinstripe looks like??

Congrats and Best of Luck with all of your breeding plans for him.

The Tiger Pin gets a touch lighter, kinda creamier, this is a pic of a hatchling Tiger Pin...

Suh-weeeet triple combo you have there.

I had a feeling the addition of the Enchi gene would further 'smooth' things out.

Another unreal looking combo.
That one looking like it was drawn with Pastels. (Oil-based, not the co-dom variety...*wink*)

Thanks for sharing. I didn't have to wonder long.

Yes, I couldn't wait to see how it compares to my lemon blast balls I held back from last season. It is beautiful. I can't wait to make Desert Lemon Blasts. Working with Pinstripes is fantastic since you can almost predict what they will come out looking like when mixed with other morphs.
