I think you missed the joke that moved over from another thread...

Jlassiter · 10-12-12, 05:33 PM

Possibly....LOL

**Pareeeee** · 10-12-12, 06:37 PM

Cool snake and beautiful colours...how big is he? He looks huge in that first pic, lol.

CK SandBoas · 10-12-12, 06:38 PM

I believe he's around 40 inches, give or take a few.....Typical King, eats like there's no tomorrow, if given the chance, and poops every other day

Pete Q · 10-13-12, 04:28 AM

He looks great, the first pic makes him look really big.

SnakeyJay · 10-13-12, 04:35 AM

He looks cool.. Do you have any pics of him in the sunlight?

Unfortunately no, i was afraid he would take off like a speeding bullet if i brought him, outside, and now that it's really too cold, i will have to wait until next spring/summer to try outside shots

Fair enough, better than a snake escape

No it's not your fault at all......I enjoy not jumping on the proverbial band wagon!

Ahh, another of the "unpopular for unpopulars sake" keepers.
BTW, I got into balls (1999) prior to the explosion of them in the early 2000's.
I've got a question for you as you seem like a level-headed, intelligent keeper. You've been around a long time so my question to you is this: why do many (nothing personal) feel like working with "cheap" (for lack of a better word) and unpopular mutants that they are taking the moral highground when talking down to ball python keepers and breeders?
Is it sour grapes that they missed the financial heyday of ball python breeding?
Is it that they feel that ball python keepers are only in it for the money?
Is it that they feel ball python keepers are "less" of a keeper because they work with the most popular, profitable species?
I'm really curious.

BTW, I LOVE your sig.

Jlassiter · 10-14-12, 04:17 PM

Man you sure are reading into this way too much...
I have nothing against any of it.....thus the J/K and the lol....

I'm glad you are doing well with the BP craze.
I choose not to work with them for multiple reasons.
I am not in it for the money. I enjoy Lampropeltis the best and will have them forever.

One day I will choose a BP I like and work with some but right now I have alot of projects I'm working on in the colubrid world...

Cheers
