Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

How available are Axanthic Conda Hogs?
I was browsing morphs for Hogs and one in particular struck me. Axanthic Condas are absolute gorgeous snakes and i'd love to breed them. However i'm on a budget and can't get any snakes till next year, so i'm trying to price everything out and such. Are there any Axanthic Conda breeders I should be aware of, and I have no idea how much one would cost... Can anybody help me out? Thanks in advance!

Breeding tips
EDIT: Axanthicondas are extremely pricey from my research (Like $2200 per female), so I've decided I'm going to go with a Male Axanthic and a Female Anaconda HET Axanthic, which from my research should total around $450 for the two snakes. Now my question lies in breeding them, I know from a calculator that my results should be:
25% Anaconda Het Axanthic
25% Axanthic
25% Axanthiconda
25% Normal Het Axanthic
Do these numbers tend to be accurate or is it more of a hat draw then that? I'm very new to breeding so any help is appreciated.

Odds can always go either way. I once bred two females to a conda het albino - one normal het albino, and the other a normal. Out of the four clutches, totaling 31 eggs, I only hatched 2 normals - everything else was albino, conda, or albino conda. I've also seen people hatch dozens of eggs only to get a single morph.
As far as your pair decision, I'd personally go with a conda het axanthic male, and use axanthic or het axanthic females. You could probably pick up a few het females pretty cheap, and get a more eggs for a comparable price.

I had never considered buying two het females with one conda het axanthic male, and I feel quite foolish for not. It does seem like the much better choice for producing not only the morph i look for but more (hopefully) of it. Thank you very much! Do Female hogs breed multiple times a year? You mentioned 3 snakes and 4 clutches, so I am assuming they do. Sorry if i sound inexperienced, because i am quite inexperienced hahaha

No problem at all. They'll usually double clutch, so the story above was 2 clutches from each female.

Alright I'll keep that in mind. Is there any particular timeframe in order to get a double clutch or can it just happen whenever?

They've always just naturally done it for me, so I couldn't advise whether or not there's a trick to it.

huh, interesting. I thought most snakes double clutch only if you time it right. Thanks for the tips!
