the other day i saw a BRAND NEW MORPH the first off its kind (i dont remember what it is called) for only 800 the market is very down i was very tempted to buy it but decided against it because I know right now i cant take care of one properly

doubt it was brand new. Can't really verify without a title though. Any idea who the dealer/breeder was that had it?

no but I did a lot of digging and found that in the national record thing hat breeder was the frist to produce it and after he did blood work and stuff verifying it was a recessive morph the ban passed and decided to sell her

Full grown giants are hard to move. (Sell) Unless they are designer then they might fetch a good price as breeders.

Where would a 15year old come up with $800?

Dale, you're right-I don't know you or your experience level; however, your post speaks for itself. The fact that you were considering breeding a female Burmese that is waay way underweight and not nearly long enough for breeding, not to mention sick, tells me that you are NOT knowledgeable about breeding, or about Burmese pythons for that matter, enough to attempt it yet.

I tried to give you advice in the nicest way I could. Honestly, your original post that you are wanting to breed your snake this season pissed me off. How can you even consider breeding a sick (or recently sick) snake that is that underweight??? If you've been keeping Burmese pythons for 25 years as you've said, how do you not know the minimum size for breeding and a proper length/weight ratio???
I'm sorry, but the way I see it, you really need to do more research about breeding and the proper weight for Burmese pythons before you put your girl through the stress of breeding- it is stressful and taxing on a female's body, and yours is in no shape to go through it.

Which is why in my last post I said I was waiting at the very least 2 seasons...thanks for the input, sorry to have "pissed you off"

Ooooo! Looks like you got yourself a new burm!

Will0W783 · 02-06-12, 07:34 AM

It's ok Dale. I'm sorry to have offended you too- I have just seem too many ugliness from people power feeding their snakes or breeding them too soon. When I sense that someone might be rushing an animal I get really nervous. I am glad that you are choosing to wait- it'll reward you in the long run as a bigger female can have more eggs and they tend to be stronger babies; also, you can see where this ban goes. I personally am holding out hope that USARK can get the ban reversed or at least reduced. If you have any questions about your Burm or breeding, I'd be happy to help as much as I can.

I worked full time in high school since i was 13, i had $800 easily to spend at 15 since when you're that age you dont have any bills or otherwise, minimum wage is more like $25/hr if you arent paying bills!

Will0W783 · 02-24-12, 09:06 AM

Skumbo, I sure miss those days....

I remember when I used to feel rich having $20 in my pocket, lol. Then dozens of mouths to feed, car insurance, health insurance, rent....etc came along.

I don't wanna grow up.... LOL
