1st Bateater Makes His Way Out!

might have to put bateaters on the list for possible snakes in the future... love their patters and coloration as well as the wild look in their eyes.

start savein. Sorry to say, I haven't seen a bateater under $1,500. Granted, it was for an adult, but there still pricey

I love jungle burm/tics, what are your plans OP?

Haven't decided what's next as far breeding plans. I do have a few ideas on the table though, consisting of some Jungle Retics and Burms I may also go off the deep end and try and get an Afrock in the mix at some point.I'm just kicking around ideas for now since I have at least 2 years until these guys can do any breeding.

I thought males could breed in a year?

adding a rock python to this mix will be awsome. But Iv been told That mix animals are infertile, is this true?

Also just an idea, I think mixing a Super tiger retic with a Labyrinth burm will make a Beautiful snake.

Morphs don't cross. Diffrent genes won't x-fer to the babies.

Um, no. 18 months is pushing it, but 2 years is a safe bet.

Same for females?
