Some summertime blackhead fun!

[Jason_Hood]

So back in September I brought some of my snakes over to a friends house to get some outdoor pics and ended up taking around 300 photos and just never made it around to processing the photos until now. Someone posted a pic the other day from that day and it reminded me to get off my butt. First up was just a quick shot to get a size of one of my females.

Always hate these photos with no scale and just grass but I don't have many pics of this girl so...

We tried a bird bath shot

Then I tried my big male in a tree hole but that was a big mistake

Right after that shot I looked at my camera and then back at the snake and his head was gone down a hole :lmao::lmao:

We dug him out and got another shot before changing up the plan

Next I tried one of the females on the grass again

She scooted over to the planter...

And immediately found the hole in the wood

So I moved on to a different female that I knew would be a better model, she likes to stand and fight

About then my bud wanted to play with the babies so we broke them out

Male hotty!

Beautiful animals! Thanks for sharing! :D

[alessia55]

Those are amazing!! The pitch black heads are just incredible... great photos all around. Keep 'em coming :yes:

Did you breed these yourself?

[BarelyBreathing]

Beautiful snakes!!!

[Wyldrose]

Wow great shots!! I love that first baby you posted, love his markings!

Yes I have been breeding them the last few years. They are really fun to work with and offer a fun challenge. Not the easiest to breed that is the fun part.

Okay. I am really considering getting one of these. Do you have any for sale? If not when may you have more? A pm may be best.....

[Lankyrob]

They are awesome! are they always so dark down the spine or is that some kind of morph?

[Trent]

Great pics!!!

[Nikki1984]

I have been contemplating getting one of these. I think this post was a sign. Gorgeous animals!

I am not sure what you are referring to but these are not morphs in any classic sense but there is a couple different looks among these.

From memory the pics of BHP's i have seen previously seemed to be a LOT lighter coloured (less black) along the body of the snake, may just be my memory playing up though :)

You might be thinking of womas... Some of these are super light for blackheads and some others are average as far as how dark but their pattern is weird.

[GUITARZAN509]

[TeaNinja]

[shaunyboy]

those are some beautifull looking BHP's mate

i hope to add a pair of BHP's to my Morelia Collection one day

from what ive read,people have problems with fat overwieght females,who tend not to produce when bred,would that be correct in your opinion mate ?

cheers shaun

Yeah fat girls don't reproduce well at all.

These are incredible...the babies, particularly that first one are stunning

The ones I've seem before don't seem to have those colours or 'cleanness'

Are babies generally like that or are the parents producing extra gorgeous ones?

[Jendee]

I see some great tongue shots for the photo contest!!
