"Unusual" Ball has mated

EmberBall Dec 21, 2003 01:29 PM

My unusual male Ball Python, I am calling the "Concrete" Ball for now, has been mating with a normal female on and off over the last few weeks. I am hoping to see carbon copies of the male, but who knows. This male is VERY similar to the "Desert Ghost" currently being offered on the Classifieds. Anyone have any opinions as to the possible genetics of this animal? Think I will get all normal looking offspring (assuming I get eggs

He's eating once for me, then immediately went into shed. He's at 458g now. When I got him he was around 380. Thanks Hermin.

I've had this girl for a couple of seasons and it has taken some work, but I have gotten her nice and plump to where she is ready to breed this year. She will be bred to a special male, so I hope the babies look like her, or I will hopefully have a very interesting possible DH project in the works. Keep us posted on how your babies turn out.
