    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....

So I spent the money and got me a pied cause I was supposed to be getting some het pied females,which I should have waited til I already had the females,but anyway I ended up not getting them.So my question is all my females are just normals so I could wait and put the time in breeding him knowing I would only get some low percentage het pieds or should I try to work a trade for him to get some co-dom males and possibly more normal females or some female morphs.He is eating good and putting the weight on really good dont have a current weight for him but I can get one and he is currently getting ready to shed.
 
If you breed a pied to a normal you will get all %100 het. pied normals. Heck, if you got some co-dom morphs and you bred them to a pied you would get normals and lets say mojaves, or spiders or pastels all %100 het pied... so just think what you could do if you produced some of those and then bred them back to your male pied! I absolutely love the endless possibilities when breeding ball pythons! Good luck with your guy! Keep us updated!! :)
 
Thanks I actually put up a post about possiby trading him for some other male/female ball morphs just to see what trades I might get but still not sure which way I will go.Guess it depends on what offers I get for him.

Are you just wanting take your breeding projects in a different direction? Or did you want to produce pieds?

Het pied females are readily available, I'd say hang on to him and wait for the right female to come along!

Actually Lauren has a really good point... Would you like me to talk to a local breeder to see if he has some het pied ball pythons for sale? I can ask him and then let you know if you would like!!! :)
 
I was supposed to be getting 2-3 het pied female but that fell through.And all I have is 3 normal females so I thought about trying to trade him for some other morphs for now and after 1-2 seasons of breeding adding pieds in with the mix.

Not my intention to be rude but this is a discussion forum... I asked him a question so I am not sure what harm I am causing I am not trying to sell an animal I am not giving prices, I am just asking if he would like me to contact somebody. But I will move it to a pm if it truly needs to be moved. I am sorry if I did something wrong.

So anyway, I forgot to ask you what morphs are you interested in? And if you dont mind me asking, what morphs do you have in your collection?
 
Harald I am sorry... I will take the discussion (if it continues) to a pm. I hope that you don't take what I said in a snippy or disrespectful way.. I was just asking what I did wrong. But I guess it's not my place. I would really appreciate your understanding. Thank you and have a wonderful evening!
