New Yellow Belly In Our Collection

[stano40]

While at the Manchester, NH show this Apr. 7th, 2007 Michelle ran across a good buy. A male yellow belly (het for Ivory) adult ready, willing and able to do his thing.

He was a sold to us for $150.00, which I didn't think was a bad price for him. The vendor "Reptile Kingdom" out of NJ guaranteed him to be a yellow belly.

When we got home we went to Hunter's guide and checked all his markings according to his pictorial and he checked out OK.

So far he hasn't come out of his ball position since we got him home but here he is anyway.

The photo's don't show his great coloring.

We named him "Yellow Beard" he is a Yellow Belly (Het for Ivory)




This next guy we bought for $50.00 and was 66% Het for Pied. We also checked him out on Hunters Guide and he too checked out OK.

We named him Viper, 66% Het for Pied.

Very pretty snakes! Do you plan on breeding them? I have the very same scale. I've been using it for the guinea pig whose taken a turn for the worst. I should be using it on the squirrel babies...but how do you keep something so...well...squirrely in the tray?

My wife already has him with one of our normal females that is already following him around. So far he just keeps moving away from her.

We'll keep them together for a week and see what happens.

She's already dreaming of lots of yellow belly female babies.

No quarantine or being allowed to settle in first? I'm sure they'll produce some really wonderful babies. You know we will expect pictures...:-D

If I were allowed to make any decisions in this matter, "Yellow Beard" would not be introduced for a few weeks.

But seeing we already have a female with folicles almost bursting, my wife decided to go ahead and risk the introduction to the female "Dudette"

I have two other females that are possible's, but I have to check out their weights first to make sure they can handle the pregnancy (alias gravid situation).

At least they are laying together and now only time will tell.
