Axanthic Mojave Surprise...
We picked out a baby ball years ago because she was different looking, she just really stood out from the other 500 African Imports.
We grew her up and bred her with our Mojave. They produced 5 eggs, they were all Mojaves, but one male looked similar to the mom as a baby.

We grew him up and did some line breeding and produced what appears to be 2 axanthic Mojaves, 2 BEL, and one normal mojave. I guess she was het. Axanthic.

Still have to prove things out they just hatched today.

Gotta Love African Babies and Line Breeding..

Thanks, We have been really lucky this season between the Cherry Bomb, Albino Mojaves...and now these little guys. We have had a great season.
Here's a picture of the grandmother who started the whole thing....I will get pics of the parents this afternoon.

Thanks...We have had great odds especially considering that we have been so busy with the retail store we only had 12 clutches of ball pythons this season. Just didnt have the energy to focus on the BP's.

Thanks again.

Great looking babies. Sometimes life is just no fair! Hope you'll have 'em at the store, I'll have to come round and check them out. Store looks great by the way, lots of hard work paying off.
