Ok..so don't all click at once..lol

You could classify me as a keeper.. not a breeder. However that doesn't mean that I can't make an attempt on my own just to see if I could do it. When and if I'm able to accomplish this feat the cool ones I will keep for my collection.. the rest will be rehomed. So far, this is what I have to work with...

Here's the guy who started the ball rolling (little herp humor). He's a normal not het for anything that I know about.. don't really care for that matter. He's just an all around great snake to work with. Also is my "disposal" if the small guys don't wanna eat. He normally is in a small 2 footer Vision but he's been chillin in the rack since cleaning day. He is not apart of any breeding project.

Here is my Blonde Pastel. I think he's handsome. He will be apart of my first breeding project. Bought from a breeder, he is %75 het for the VPI line of Axanthic which i absolutely love. I also have his sister for this project as well.

Didn't feel like prodding him so I left him be for the pic. Here is my male High Contrast Albino. My first Albino anything...

Here is yet another Normal but het for Albino given to me by a breeder friend. I also have his younger sister from a later clutch.. although me and her don't get along for some reason. VERY Nippy for a BP.

In all I have 6 in my collection.. no sense in pics of things that look the same. We will have to see in the next year or so what I can do. Even if nothing comes of it to write the press about. Its a start and I would be proud to have accomplished it.

I love ball pythons - you are very lucky. Not allowed to keep them in Australia. Natives only for us. Thanks for the pics.

It would really suck if all we could own were natives. No pythons only Rosie Boas and Kingsnakes would be the only cool ones to chose from. Some nice looking snakes. Best of luck!

Wow really? I'm sorry to here that. There are alot of native species here in Pennsylvania that you need a permit to keep. Mammals or otherwise.

Thank you for the compliments. The Pastel really surprised me when I opened the box as the pic on the computer when I made the purchase didn't do it justice. His sister isn't half bad either.
Very nice little collection you got there.

Aaron.. if that sounds off to you then it probably is. I forgot what his listing said altogether and the paperwork is being sent seprately. I knew there was a % but forgot the exact # but don't remember it being a 100%. That whole side of it is foreign to me. Need to find a good source to figure what makes what. Thanks for the compliment!

Thanks Marvel. I get alot of (i mean sometimes its out of hand) Rat/Black snakes running through my yard along with water snakes that come up from the creek running in the back. ALL have some sort of regulation as far as when/how many you can keep.. and alot you can't at all. Or your not suppose too. My facination started when I was a kid growing up next to a river bringing all kinds of stuff home. My father had a list of prohibited as well.. like ALL of them lol.
