Re: Gravid Nelson's

It's actually a nelsoni/sinaloae. The chocolate color is the Tplus gene from nelsoni and the patternless is from a sinaloae line. I bred her to another nelsoni/sinaloae, which is amelanistic from nelsoni and hypo-e which makes the red a more orange/pumpkin color from sinaloae's.

I don't think there are many out there. I know there maybe a few breeders that have produced them but haven't offered them for sale yet.

Just adults, over 100. I have 30, 2010 animals that will be able to breed next year and I have 35 from 2011 that will possibly breed the year after. So, in total probably close to 200, I can count them all if you want. I do have some left over hatchlings from last year and the year before. I am trying to get pics of all my breeders and sub-adults. It just takes time and right now I am to busy cleaning and feeding.LOL

That's a female het melanistic I produced last year. She held off eating all the way until spring. She is now pounding F/T. I won't have that trio ready until 2014 to try and prove out them out.

As John stated it really isn't hard you kinda get down a schedule. It's during the spring when I feed all the females heavy and in the fall when you have an extra 100 plus hatchlings is when it gets kinda hairy. This is only a hobby for me so I enjoy every minute of the time I am in the snake room. When it starts to feel like a job is when it will stop growing.
