I just wanted to say thanks for the pair of '02 het pieds I got from 2 years ago. I bred them this year and recieved a clutch of 9 eggs.....and 4 BEAUTIFUL piebalds!!!!! BTW, did you happen to bred an axanthic to pied to produce double hets? There's one baby that looks black and gray?

Thanks again for a great clutch!

Tom is great, I just got an 04' het albino from him last week. I must say I was very impressed with his collection, and as soon as I can get the cash together I hope to buy more from him.

congratulations on the pieds, can't wait till I can get a pied.

Congrats bro, I myself met Tom a few times and thought highly of him and his animals. I look forward to seeing pics. Tom Stevens

I've known Tom for years. He is, hands down, one of the most honest individuals in this business. He deeply cares for his animals and his relationship with his friends, customers, and family. Ask him anything and he'll gladly share his knowledge until you can't absorb any more.
Just my 2 cents.

Thanks for the kind words Brandon. This is the kind of feedback I love to read about sitting down to my computer after 10 hours of cleaning python [bleep]. There's nothing better than to hear that a guy who bought hets from me 4 years ago, and paid his dues, did the husbandry, has finally proved out his hets and blew away the odds in the process. I hope you keeps some of those Pieds and breed them as well. The first ones are always sentimental.
Best of luck in the future

Brandon:

Haven't done Axanthic to Pied yet. But that doesn't mean that you couldn't have lucked out on the female regular side when I produced those hets!
Shoot me some pics of these snakes I'd love to see them.

Tom
