| The pictures will definately be coming soon. I have had a phone malfunction and a computer issue; but we picked up 2 racks with heat tape, 2 really pretty clocks with a bumblebee BP background and a Pied background, and we picked up... DUN DUN DUN DUNNNNN Male Lesser Genetic Stripe and Female Black Pewter het Ghost. We may also now be trading our Lesser male and some $$ for a Male Lemonblast this week since we have the Lesser GStripe Very Happy Girl here - as soon as I find my camera and get on my daughters computer since mine is hitting the crapper, I will get the pictures posted. Everywhere we walked with our Lesser GStripe we received numerous compliments and alot of the vendors had heard of it being at the show but didn't get to see it so we had to walk around and show it off... Both ball pythons were picked up from Outback. We have bought a few of our snakes from them but yesterday's experience with Ian was one of the best we have had. He was alot more personable to talk to and deal with but we are super happy with our new additions. | |

| Lesser Genetic Stripe (Male) Black Pewter Het Ghost (Female) Traded our Male Lesser and Female Cinnamean for Lemonblast Male Also saw one of these guys - wish we could get one And this one was a little bit bigger... very very tame/calm. The guy held it with his head on his shoulder and was petting him like a cat, he just relaxed and enjoyed the attention. Got to touch it myself... not as gross/rough as I expected. | |

| Seeing those gators makes me sad. My first pet was a gator that my mom brought home from a Georgia vs. Florida game. They were selling them for next to nothing back then. It was the early 70's. I think it was the Sugar Bowl, many years ago.
I raised that gator for a couple of years, then my mom sent me to summer camp. When I returned, Wally was gone. To this day, when I asked what happened to that gator, she just laughs. That is probably just one of the reasons I haven't talked to her in years.

| Thanks everyone. We are happy with our pick ups and really excited on what we can do with both of them.... too many options right now to even pick just one but I really think the Lesser G-Stripe is our greatest investment so far | |

| Yea the original picture I saw of him I was not pleased with him and he looked very dull but I think it was the lighting.
After seeing him in person I loved his coloring and how bright he was. Very glad to have him. Just not sure what to do with everything we will have up to size for breeding next season. | |

| ah, i see what you mean... i picked up a 350 gram mocha female that probably acts the same way your cinnamon did. i also have a normal girl 2000g+ that everytime i slide her tub out she's ready to bite my face off! she's mean but im hoping she'll be a good breeder | |

| We have a few that come off as aggressive in a sense and it doesnt bother me. the cinnamean girl though would follow me. I mean if I walked past her tub, shed strike, If it was open for cleaning and i walked around it to the other side, her head would follow my movement. she only struck at me... bit me... was nice to everyone else. So I didn't mind if she went. We have plenty of other good females to offer once we figure out what to do with everyone. | |

| Not big at all, roughly 250 grams I think? We traded her and our lesser male which was approx 300 grams for the lemonblast. We should have hatchlings the first week of July. Ghost female to a cinnamon possible het ghost male. *Fingers crossed he proves out*. And then 2 weeks after that we should have Albinos | |
