    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Yesterday had to be one of the WORST days ever for me... Total stress-fest. I think my Kenyan Sand Boa Boo Berry got the vibe and decided to surprise me by having her litter. It's amazing how sweet little newborn sand boa faces can brighten even the worst of days :) These are the first babies I've ever bred and produced myself as far as snakes go. I've hatched Balls but didn't breed them myself. Live birth is a whole different ball game compared to eggs... It's awesome!

The pairing was Boo Berry (100% het Anery) and Count Chocula (probable Hypo Anery). 11 healthy little worms and 0 slugs. 4 Anerys and 7 100% het Anerys (if dad is hypo, all these babies are 100% het Hypo). Enough blabbing, here are some pics!

All of them, when I found them.

Have to thank my friends Mark Huntley & Scott Miller for learnin' me the ropes of sand boa breeding... Thanks guys :thumbsup:
 
Do they all have homes already? Are ya keepin any? :D

9 of them went to Mark yesterday - I'm keeping back 2 :) Well one of them is for my mom as her first snake, lol! But I will be borrowing him when he's big enough to breed.
 
*licks paper towel and rubs it off* you're messy, you know that? :D

So why did you keep the dark one? Is it a girl to try and prove your male out to?

I am, lol! :D

and I'm pretty sure it's a girl ;) Going to try to see if dad was a Hypo or not.
 
Awesome! I'm thinking about getting into Kenyans. I tried earlier this year, but got a bad trio that wouldn't eat, and after getting them to eat steadily, all three died out of the blue. No clue what happened, and the breeder wasn't of any help. He pretty much said, 'don't know what to tell you, they were fine eating here. sucks you're having trouble.'

I will definitely buy from Mark and Jennifer when I'm ready to move into them again. They are awesome.
 
The mother of that cute pair you held back gave me a nasty bite the other day, she wouldn't let go!

Whitney we'll be in Atlanta for the Repticon show at the end of January....bring your best cresties and we might be able to work something out!
