Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I don't usually post on the forums, but I had nothing to do today, so I figured I would post a few pics.

Very few of you know me, so I want to introduce myself. My name is Jay Cassidy from Caveman Reptiles I live in New York. I've been into Ball Pythons for a few years now, and last year was my first time producing babies. I devoted the last few years of my life to learning everything I could about Ball Pythons, and I consider myself pretty knowledgeable on the subject. I ONLY keep, and breed ball pythons.
So Hello, to all my fellow Ball Python keepers out there.

The shot is a litte blurry, but I think it's cool.

We had a decent amount of spiders this past season.
9.1 in total in 4 clutches.

clutch#1 was 1.1 spiders-1.3 normals.
clutch#2 was 3.0 spiders-1.1 normals.
clutch#3 was 4.0 spiders-1.1 normals.
clutch#4 was 1.0 spiders-2.4 normals.

Thanks

That is really weird... I wonder how it is that in one clutch you had 4 spiders out of 6 eggs and the next cluch was 1 spider out of i think 7 eggs. That is weird, I wonder what determines if a single clutch will get 4 spiders or one...???.

Each EGG has a 50/50 possibility of being a spider, clutch size really doesn't mean much. People tend to think that if they have a 50/50 chance than 1/2 the eggs will be whatever morph, if they have a 1/4 chance than a clutch of 4 eggs will yeild one of the morph but the odds are for each individual egg. Luck is the deciding factor in most cases.

Yo what's up Kev,

I love the spider morph. Pieds use to be my favorite morph, USE TO BE! The spiders are so cool, I have a 6 1/2 Month old female that is eating med rats and going on 900 grams! Spiders are definitely my favorite.

Yo kev when are you going to bring the albino spiders to the white plains show? I would love to see them again.

Later
Jay Cassidy

Congrats Jay,
