Some summertime blackhead fun!

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!

Such a cute model pic

Different one

Try as we might, we could not time a strike with these guys but I did get this big hiss

This is a nice one

Clean

Nice tongue shot

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

Did you breed these yourself?

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.

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

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.
