Got another white lip last week, and he just came out of shed today, so I got a chance to give him a good once over. Now, I just need a second female and I'll be up to 2.2

I must say, I was waiting to get tagged, but this little guy didn't show the slightest interest in biting me. He put up a little fuss when I restrained his head while Jessy probed him, but other then that, I was amazed! I hope he stays this way, my other male is named "Spaz" for a good reason!


anyways, here are a bunch of pics Jess took.

WOW, who do you get your white lips from? Are they CB or do you get them WC from an importer??? Amazing pics, by the way! I defenetly have to find a couple of these eventually, when i get the room ( maybe i'll buy some babies from you!!! )! We've got a 1.5 year old male at the store i work at, and it's a WONDERFUL animal!!! Nice tempered, good feeder, and amazing looking animal... My compliments to you for your WLP, it's awesome!

Phil, My adult female is a LTC (6 year+) I purchased from Chris R. when he still had ReptileHQ, my other male I purchased as a CB from Grant at PCPC and this little guy I bought from a friend who had a friend selling him.

I Have not bred them yet, but I hope to get them going for 2006. The two males still need another year to get up to size.

Thank you for the compliments!

VERY nice looking specimen, Justin. I hope you can get them to breed.

Thank's Ken.. Breeding them is the goal. However, from all i've read, it sound like it will be a challenge! regardless of breeding success, I'm still more then happy to even be working with them!

I really liked your papuan pythons (I think i spelled that wrong).. I know you said they were hard to find in canada, but exactly how hard? Does their price tag match their rareness?

Take care,
Justin


edit: BTW, the marking on the snakes back is either some dried urates or some retained shed. As far as i can tell, it is not a scar or anything bad.
