A generation must move forward to honor MOM.

EVERYONE:

Well here are some ETBs, been awhile since I posted on them.

Below are some photos I took awhile back when they were in shed. These 2 are siblings I got a few years back from a friend Gerry who lost the mom a few weeks after giving birth. These 2 are the only survivors of 3 in a litter. Litter was 6-7 but only 3 were alive and only these 2 grew up to adults. The 3rd baby did not live past 1 week with my friend. These ETBS are sitting on 2 inch thick wooden dowels. In the next week or so they will upgraded to a new cage to start up my breeders for the coming season. As of 3 days ago they ate medium thawed rats :D

EVERYONE:

This reply is in loving memory of JADE (Gerry' s WC ETB).

Below is the same ETBs as babies with MOM. This is Gerry' s cage and this is him showing me my first ETBs ever, he sold me well on them and I can' t have enough of them now.

You can see 1 in the back and 1 in the front.

And this is Mephisto taking his first hit of human blood, but not mine. Gerry got tagged by the mom when she first arrived. I think it was 6 hits at once from an angry adult being put in her cage. After he described that situation and showed me all the blood on film photos, I was not about to be tagged on 1st day with my new baby ETBs. So he did get tagged again and said "damn small teeth hurt too" :D

With only 1 book and some guidance this species has put a spot in my heart. Now some years of experience and alot more information I can' t get enough of them.

ADAM:

Yes handling ETBs are a bit different than my larger constrictors. The large ones don' t even notice me and think I am just there, but the ETBs they use you like a tree and don' t turn there heads from you :D

CONNER:

ETBs are my favorite boas aside from morphs, an ETB in any collection is like the final jem in a crown.

RICH:

I took the photos, that' s my buddies hands and blood :D

Thank you all again :D
