Thanks!

NERD has picts on their website - Roussis Reptiles also have some on their website - neat combination of two beatiful animals. TW International is also working with them - you can check their site as well. Renaissance Reptiles has two generations of them - really sweet - check the hybrid forum - they have them posted there.

I saw that NERD produced them first on Roussis Reptiles site, but I didn't see them on NERDS site, I must of missed it.
Thanks Tosha!

We will post a picture of a cross in a bit....

I think I have a decent picture to post a hybrid bred back to a Pastel Jungle, just have to find it!

It makes some cool looking stuff for sure!

Interesting, that of the pics I've seen, they retain the pebbled skin of the Angolan. Do all of them have that?

The pics from Renaissance Reptiles were VERY interesting, there cross(angolan x ball) looks just like a hypo or pastel and THEN backcrossed they really looked like a hypo,pastel and a few more. But I guess since they probably breed together in the wild you'll see it in the imported animals too.

Ball and Angolan pythons do not come into contact in the wild therefore they are a captive produced hybrid, Guess now they aren't interesting or beautiful anymore to some of you, they are crimes against nature.....

As far as I was aware, they don't co-exist in the wild. In Marais' book, Snakes of S. Africa, the range of the Angolan is shown, but BPs aren't even mentioned.

Thank you

Here's a picture of the clutch I hatched out last year from my Angolan Ball to a normal female ball. I bought my Angolan Ball from NERD several years ago and I love him. The Angolan Ball himself is one of my sweetest snakes But his kids (below) are all het for Snapping Turtle

Het for snapping turtle??!?!! I'd be more than happy to take one or two of them off your hands and break them of that nasty habit.

I like the looks of the one on the bottom right.
