$800!? I swear,these morph breeder are pulling random figures out their arse

That's nothing, check out a banana royal/ball python, they are a new morph and they sell for $25,000 USD

It's all about supply and demand

Me too!

It's weird with bps because to produce a BEL you need a mojave, butter or lesser bred to either a mojave, butter or lesser. None of which are albinos or leucistics and you have a 25% chance of producing a BEL.

Weird....So what if you bred two leucistics? Or a leucistic with a mojave or something?

If you bred 2 leucistics all the offspring would be leucistics. I'm still new to bp morphs and genes, I use this Genetic Wizard - World of Ball Pythons

It's a great genetic calculator for ball pythons, I wish there was 1 for garter snakes

Awesome site! I wonder if there are/could be issues with breeding two leuctistics or any other morphs directly together. I know that with Chinese Crested dogs you can't breed to of the hairless ones together. It's gotta be a hairless and a powderpuff if you want hairless babies. And even still I don't think they are all born hairless.


Edit: Someone needs to come up with a site like that for garters

Here's a funny Tank story for you.

Last night I was talking with Tank (Chelydra serpentina -Common Snapping Turtle). We were discussing how he should come out and go to bed. I must have been getting through to him because he started to come out. As I got his blanket ready he stop and decided to think the situation over. I knew what this meant, he was going to go back into the water. I quickly grabbed his front legs and started pulling him out. The big power brute started kicking and pulling himself back in. I released his front legs and quickly grabbed the sides of his shell mid body. At this point he kicked it into 4 wheel drive and made great effort to get back in his water. While all this is happening I'm yelling "No Tank, no" The battle continued and I was able to pull this 20 pound turtle out onto his pillow and blanket. Once on his pillow he started digging in, in an attempt to go to sleep. I covered him and within moments he was still and probably asleep.

Some recent pics of Panzer She weighed less than 1lb when I got her back in April. She's just a tad over 3lbs now.
