het pieds breeding

Have seen these two locked up a couple times. What a great time of year. They are '03's from Harbour reptiles. Hopefully we can hatch out a pied or two.

Here is out het pied male breeding last season. He was a little guy, but he got the job done.

This little girl hatched in August. She was slow to start eating, so she's a bit smaller than her siblings at around 250 g. I call her velvet because of her nice black.

Here is a sibling to the above female. She grew a bit quicker and is around 650 g. She has slowed down with winter coming on, and I hope she resumes soon. I named her sister Christian. Can you guess why?

This is a female from a different clutch that hatched out in June. She is a fabulous eater, and on the same schedule as the above females is around 1000g. She also has thick "pied marker" traits, so hopefully she'll be a het as well. It's amazing how different the growth rate can be for these snakes. It must have something to do with genetics. This is a fun project, and all I need this year is a little (or lot) of white to make it complete. If I had known ball pythons were this fun, I would have gotten into them years ago (even thought they are not Australian). Hoping for pieds in '05!
