Python Breeder

If I was to breed a black eye Lucy X bumblebee what would be the offspring?

Asked by marie almost 10 years ago

You would get a combination of the following:

fire bees, fire spiders, fireflies, fires

There's a good genetics calculator on http://worldofballpythons.com that will allow you to enter the genetics of males and females to see what offspring you would produce. It also includes pictures of many of the various combinations that have been produced.

does the snake ever bite you

Asked by jermiah about 9 years ago

Yes, I've been bitten many times. The snakes I work with are not venomous, so it's not dangerous, and usually is pretty painless. Their teeth are so sharp and small that it feels similar to getting an injection.

When bredding ball pythons gow do you know they aren't related or does that not have an effect on breeding snakes?

Asked by melissa almost 10 years ago

Inbreeding isn't generally a problem with ball pythons and in general it's less of a problem with reptiles than other animal species. I don't recall where I read it and I don't have a source to back this up, but I've read of breeders line breeding (breeding related individuals) ball pythons for many generations without noticeable effects on the resulting offspring.

That being said, I'm not recommending that you breed related individuals together. I would recommend against it if possible, but it shouldn't result in genetically defective babies if you were to do so.

I if I bred a ball python to an albino Burmese python would they be as long as a Burmese python?
and is that possible?

Recently bought a ball python who is supposedly 6 1/2 months old... we weighed her today and she weighs 62 grams and is 16 inches long... is that normal for that age?

What is the best bedding for my baby ball python. Petco gave me a starter kit 20L with Snake & Lizard litter and my humidity is really low.
