A small confesion....

[John Pilling]

I have just found out (Saturday) that venus is in fact a GIRL!!!

Thats the last time i take a pets shop word on the sex of a snake (they stated that a vet had ID her as a him). But they did have a large number of eggs last year supposedley off i female (28 eggs in total? from 1 female). I grew suspicious a couple of weeks ago and probed him/her this weekend just gone, & found he to be a she.

Soe eggs heading your year next year folks as chocky should be big enough then ;D.

So you'll be breeding Venus and Chocky? Nice! Someday I might have Hashmeer and Skye probed. We've briefly discussed the idea of breeding. If it turns out we could breed them what kind of color morphs could I expect in the offspring? Hashmeer is a regular Oketee and Skye is a Snow Het for Amel (I gotta get a pic of her up soon).

[John Pilling]

snow het for amel? Probabley some reverse okeetee's and something else (i'll have to look it up).

[Vicki]

Thats great John! At least now your with me on NEVER believe a pet shop when they tell you the sex of your snake! Both of mine were sold to me the opposite of what they are.

28 eggs looks like she will be a good breeder then! You going to try this year or wait?

[John Pilling]

It depends on Chocky, if he grows on enough later in the year i might try them, but it will probabley be next year, You never knw though he may supprise me ;D.

Luckily John the name venus suits both!

[John Pilling]

I know it's a great advantage, it means i don't have to start going through feeding records and changeing things (I can't be bothered at the min, i've other things on my plate).

So i've got alot of personel baggage at the min.
