Hey guys. Long time no post. Is anyone producing Amber lavender or Amber opal? I bought a trio some years ago, and recently lost the last one to a mysterious ailment (we're having a necropsy done), but I'd love to know if anyone else has them or is planning to breed them. Thanks!

So. Long story short: I have a badly kinked hatchling. Longer story: This is from a lav stripe x charcoal het lav+ pairing. There are 9 other healthy babies so far, so not a disaster. But. The last hatchling appeared to be stuck, i.e. in the same position, 3/4 out of the egg, for two days...

I am a huge Shakespeare geek. I love my snakes. So, I decided to combine them in this project (though they're not my only snakes named for Shakespeare characters). Saying that I'm excited about what these guys might produce, eventually, is an understatment. For now, though, they're all amazing...

Got a late start this year, but that's all right. Nothing to rush around about. After waiting what seemed like forever after her pre-lay shed, Lilith is finally laying eggs today. The poor girl is incapable of making small babies, though. Last year, she laid ten good big eggs. This year, so...

For a first year's breeding, we got along fairly well. Both of our gravid females double clutched. None of Lilith's second clutch survived, but two of Salome's second did. One hatched out big and healthy and ready to go. We think it startled the second one out of its shell too soon. She emerged...

Hey all! These are the lingerers from my first ever clutch. These are big babies, with excellent feeding responses, and a bit of the 'tude to match their hunger. The parents were Samael, my big Miami motley het amel x Lilith, crimson het amel. These are sibs to Eventide, posted in the gallery...

I was dinking around with my phone to see if it took moderately decent pictures (since I have no idea where the camera is post-move) and decided that it did. So, let's have a progression thread for some babies. This one is for Eventide, aka Eve, my candy cane (or maybe amel but I think she's...

I am seriously rethinking this breeding thing. Yes, I managed to hatch out two clutches this year. They all hatched healthy. Go me. But they keep escaping, despite making sure I close the tubs. I swear I do it, and yet once a week, someone's out. Have found all of them so far. This time, no...

So, Baptiste, who I am now convinced is a ghost, given the number of hypo+ babies he made, apparently had a surprise charcoal het, as well. Hey, not complaining. But, it does mean I'm kind of puzzled over one (or two) of his babies. Any ideas on this little one? Its eyes are blue, but I...

Decided to do a progression thread. We'll see if I can keep up with it. I have been notoriously bad with other snakes, but I'm determined to keep better records now. So this is Pandora, the pewter I got from Crested Kingdom earlier this year. She is constantly on the go, so getting a decent...

So, we headed to the Bay Area Reptile Expo today, and I pretty quickly found this little guy/girl. S/he was only marked het lavender, which I usually assume means a classic het for whatever. However. Wigglet (temporary name because I'd forgotten how wiggly hatchlings are) is pretty clearly not...

I know it's breeding season and all -- Baptiste has been very interested in that -- but do males normally rub all over themselves? Today, he is doing the herky-jerky want a girl dance, but he's doing it to himself. He is twitching on himself, twining around his own tail, etc. Odd behavior, or...

This is our first year breeding, and I am so excited I might pop. I only have two pairs right now, but that's more than enough for newbies. Lilith x Samael (LBR crimson het amel x LBR miami mot het amel) We have had 2 (3) successful locks with these two so far. 3/15/2013 Lily is blue as of...

I figured I'd just post this to keep track for myself as well as for a potential wish list. I am not currently purchasing (unless an outstanding offer comes along) but in 2013? I am sure I will buy, trade or both. I can hope, anyway. So, I'm looking for: Cinder Lavender (or cinders het for...

If/when I have new babies, I will do individual progression threads because I think they're fun. But for the adults who are not going to do any more growing, I want to post pictures when I can get decent ones. So. To be updated with pictures that are worthy of being seen. :)
