A few questions for ya. Why do you want a GTP from Mr Walsh? Yes he is a pioneer in the hobby of keeping GTP's but IMO you can get a quality CB GTP fom any number of the qualified breeder's out there for quite a bit less $$$. If you haven't already check out chondroweb.com there are a few links on that site to quality breeders which would probably be a bit cheaper than going to the man himself. And as far as I know he does't have a website and also I am sure there is probably a long waiting list that you would have to get on. No offense intended Mr. Walsh

" Why do you want a GTP from Mr Walsh? " Is this a joke question? Well, let's see, why would someone want a chondro from TW...
1) He's one of the first ones to produce chondros in captivity, and has been doing so for around 30 years.
2) He's got an awesome reputation and you can buy with confidence knowing that you are getting a super well established snake.
3) Not only does he posses, but he is the originator of almost every single "designer" bloodline that exists. No one else can offer the selection of extreme animals that he can.
Is he cheap? Of course not. Do you get what you pay for? Absolutely. There is a reason he has people lining up to pay him big bucks... I've attached a photo of one of them.

I completely agree with you Marcial but if you are buying your first or second Chondro why not get one from any of the very reputable breeders out there. Of course everyone would love a chondro from TW but if you're new to the hobby there's plenty of other (cheaper) options out there. Just my .02

I have to agree wholeheartedly with Marcial. Although I do not have any of TW's chondros yet, I would definitely have no problem dropping the asking price for one or two of his babies when I can afford to.
Sure, his snakes are more expensive than many other breeders, but he has earned the right to charge as he wishes. He produces killer designer chondros that are WELL worth the investment.
Marcial, that TW kid of yours is amazing! It wouldn't happen to be a female now would it?
