This is a large female white lipped python I picked up at the Red Deer show. I have this female and another just like her, so maybe if I do things right I might get little WLP'S

It's hard to tell in this picture but she is over 5 lbs and is very calm. She has not tried to strike at me yet. She is also over 5.5 FT and was bread last year but nothing happenend.

Excellent! Good Job! I would REALLY enjoy to have a few WLPs myself, but i won't let any more animals come in until i leave my parent's place... Gotta get another ETB and another Dumeril, just so that i can get babies someday... Black Phase WLPs are on the very top of my wish list!!! However, i haven't found any good caresheet about them... Richard, are yours WCs or CBs? I would like to know how is their temper... Awesome pic, by the way!!!

My blacks are CH for bushmaster reptiles and both female I got are LTC. Here a picture of me holding this girl at the show. The beads of sweat you see on my face are from the hot building not the snake.

Just picked up two big vison cages and this female is really making it her home. She ate 1 jumbo rat yesterday and you would not even know it. Sh is still calm but think she may get a little mean without handling.

*shakes fist* Damn you Welter!!! She should have been mine!!! lol
That big female golden of yours is absolutely beautiful!! Do you have several males? I hear white lips are "picky" about their mates.
Best of luck with breeding them!! Not enough people working with white lips.

I've also heard that they can be picky with their mates. I guess i'll find out next season when my boy is big enough.
Good luck breeding them!

Ah, the reputed tame White Lip that was at the show, and I thought Tim was pulling my leg when he told me to reach in and find out. *L* Damn you! I wanted her! *L* Congrats on the new addition, she's beautiful. :)
