Above is a close-up photo of the head of the Calico female, showing the reduced black colouration of the hood covering the head.
Orders are now being accepted for offspring from this female. Her babies will carry genes for Axanthics and also for the Calico trait, whilst not strictly double hets they will be special.

Sloughing on the 6th of August, the
Calico female should lay her eggs in
the first week of September.
A couple of photos here post slough.

The Calico female ovulated on the 19th
of July as can be seen by the massive mid body swelling. This lasts a couple of days until the eggs are fertilised.
Previously she has laid up to 17 eggs in a clutch.

Below are some recent photos of this years breeding season in the snake room.

We have put some nice black headeds together this year on a very carefully planned mating schedule. This has been designed to hatch what we hope will be the very best young so far produced here.

After many generations in the pipeline this will be the apex of the lines developed to date, they will not get much better than this.

Orders are being taken now.

Below are some images of the recent Expo in Sydney.
Congratulations to the organisers for a well planned
and successful event.

The last of the axanthic babies
has hatched and it looks amazing.
This one has the most reduced
banding of the axanthics so far
produced and is the F5 generation
from the original pair from 16 years
ago. Number 731 on the tree, so far!
Sorry, this one is a keeper.

The first hatchling from the pure
axanthic clutch. Very happy
with this one.

The second clutch of bhps is on
the way to hatching. 3 heads out
this morning, photos of babies
coming soon.
