    It's been a good year so far so I thought I'd share some pic's.

    Some royal(ball) python eggs,these are from a nerd pastel x normal breeding,these
    are dew any day.

    Next our female sonoran dwarf boa,this girl with her mate is het for
    anery type II which is still very rare,do you think her bum looks
    big in this. :eek:Finger crossed. :D

    HPIM1910.jpg
    HPIM1912.jpg
    And a few corns.
    This is a blood red corn bred by serpenco,likely one of the most accomplished and respected cornsnake breeders in the world,this line is one of the most saut after in the world. Anyway,this is a blood red het hypo, and lavender,we
    have eggs cooking from this girl.
    HPIM1853.jpg
    And hopefully the sire of her clutch,a serpenco hypo plasma,still very rare
    in Europe never mind Ireland.I'll get better pic's of this guy soon.

    Next a serpenco golddust and some of the babys he sired this year.

    Probably a very silly question, but are there any snakes that you don't need to feed creepy crawlies or baby mice to?

    There's a few,there are egg eating snakes and garter snakes
    can be fed fish. The only stupid question is the one that's not
    asked in my book. ;)

    Thats a really nice one!
    How much would a female super pastel cost?
    I was thinking of getting another after getting so attached to my first so soon.

    If a normal were bred with a super pastel will the clutch be all pastel or am i getting it wrong?

    You could likely get one for £800-£1000 Stirling this year
    mate and yes breeding a super to a normal will produce
    all pastels.

    It is likely one or the other but the differences are that subtle they
    can be a nightmare to identify. Does anyone have any scale count info?

    Garter snakes eat fish

    Rough green and smooth green snakes eat insects but are very hard to keep alive long term
