    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.

    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....

    What the heck?

    Alright, I bred a pretty nice looking Graziani pastel male to a reduced pattern normal female. The catch is that I purchased the normal female from somebody who'd also bred her to something else ( don't know what ) I ended up with a couple "typical" graziani pastels and one that looks way...

    Good Guy James Hysell "gulfcoastreefer"

    New hatchlings normal or pastel?

    Just had a clutch or babies. The female was bred to a woma, and a pastel. I'm having troubles telling if some of the babies are normal or pastel.

    Nice clutch to remember my favorite pastel!

    Wow what a relief. A couple months ago I traded my favorite pastel male, and and a couple of the gravid females that he'd bred for a couple kingsnakes, and 3 boas. Sounds like a win/win right? Well all of the sudden the gravid female that I kept back seemed to stop developing after ovulation. So...

    Simplicity - Incubating eggs

    Alright, one of the biggest questions you see running around now days other than "what morph is this?" is about incubating ball python eggs. "What substrate do you use?", "What mix of water/substrate is best?", "What temperatures are best?". I don't know if 30 is old, but I remember an old...

    Best Burm/Retic breeder diet

    I know this subject is highly based on opinion, but I wanted to get a good idea of what people consider the best diet to promote fertility in large boids. I've heard from many people lately that guinea pigs are causing low fertility, and in some cases infertility. I've heard from a lot of...

    Little girl on 19 eggs!

    Well for some reason I wake up at 4:30 any time one of my snakes lay eggs. Don't know why. Anyway this morning I rolled out of bed at 4:30 so I new one of my girls must have laid eggs. I knew none of the ball girls were due for another couple weeks but checked anyway and nothing. So I go over...

    Burm fertility

    I've got a 16' burmese female ( albino/green ) that I purchased from a friend. Anyway she's a proven breeder, but last year she laid 55 duds. My question is what would be the most likely cause, or better yet how many different things could cause this? Is it likely that a perfectly healthy girl...

    Maybe not a "slug out"

    Well I woke up at 6:00 a.m. to find one of my normals laying her clutch. The catch is I predicted a "slug out" with this girl. BUTTT.... She's laid 3 slugs so far, and when she tightens up I can see 3 more egg outlines, and they look full size sooooooo. Wish her luck! Anyway I'll keep this...

    SHE ATE!!!

    I'm SO happy!!! I didn't post much on it, but one of my reduced pattern normals bred to my woma, and yellow belly males laid her clutch on the 10th of this month. I quickly removed the eggs, cleaned her tub, and herself then replaced her bedding. Her eggs were beautiful. 5 perfectly healthy...

    Wise's rights?

    Retic albinism

    HI! Well, now I get the genetics of all the ball python, burmese, and corn snake mastered then I get overloaded with the abino tic bug. So that I know ( know, or think... ) there are 5 albino genes in retics? I guess there's T+, T-, lavender, purple, and amel? Or is Amel not albinism? I've...

    Calm down leos?

    Alright... I've got 4 leopard geckos in my collection. One is a male I'd imagine a bit over 1 year old. He's very nice, and likes to hang out, and be a cool little dude. I was originally told by some friends that this was the general nature of leos. BUTTT!!!! I also have a trio of SHTCT's that...

    Line breeding

    Hello, I'm trying to learn more about line breeding, and inbreeding in ball pythons, but there is little written about it in detail online. Anyway a few of my questions are: Does line breeding really help to intensify a trait? For example if you have a spider that has low white, would line...

    Corn x King???

    Hi, well I've been considering a few hybrids, and one I've come across is a corn snake bred to a king snake. At first I'd believed that this was impossible because of their family differences. BUT... I've as of late actually seen them in person. My only concern with this is the possibility of...

    Still can't call the dinker

    I still can't figure out what she is. Clear belly, bright pastel or enchi golds, and a mustache. She looks a lot like a sulfur, enchi, or a spot nose. I can't wait till she's big enough to prove out. Let me know if you have any guesses on what she might be. She's a real looker in person. Funny...
