I am a reptile breeder in the Pittsburgh area. Hognose, Boa morphs & localities, various colubrids, some pythons, and Australian Water Dragons.

I haven’t posted much lately, so here’s a pair of Crawl Cays giving me some promising signs. Way too early to tell, but I have my boas and pythons paired up while the colubrids are down for their winter nap.

Not the best photos, but this girl just shed and is looking great. She’s a pure Ron St Pierre El Salvadoran Blood Boa produced by my buddy Dillon at CBC Exotics. Whenever she’s ready in the next couple years I’ll be pairing her with my pure male from Vin Russo. This locality morph is super saturated red in person with a great iridescence, and they stay super small. My female is maybe 3ft right now and her mom is a proven breeder at 4.5ft. They’d make a perfect pet snake if they were more available, but not many people are producing them pure.

I got to check another dream species off my list thanks to my friend Dillon at CBC Exotics, Sanzinia madagascariensis vo...

Photos do this girl zero justice, which is why I don’t know if I’ve ever posted pictures of her. But since this season will be her first breeding trials I figured I’d share her. She’s an Anery Colombian Rainbow Boa. In person she’s very iridescent and has a cool blue gray tone with just a slight amount of peach tones on her head. These are also known as Ghost or Blue Ghost, that was their original morph name when they were first brought into the States. But since Ghost usually refers to Hypo + Anery in other species, Anery became the official morph name. Not a ton of these around and they’re very underappreciated, but they may be my favorite Colombian Rainbow morph. Pairing her this year will be the first step in a 5+ year project to hopefully make some T- Anery and Hypo T- Anery. I haven’t seen any made so I’ll be pairing her to my Hypo T- make to make some hets.

A customer requested pictures of a Scaleless Amelanistic Texas Rat snake, and I realized I never posted any of this guy. As far as I’m aware there are only a handful of these floating around. I made two last year and this is my holdback, and the guy I got the parents from seems to have made a few. They start out kind of dull, but the older he gets the better color saturation.

I tried getting some photos of a few snakes the other day and just missed the direct sunlight which would have shown their colors and iridescence better, but figured I’d post some anyways. This is one of my female Kunashir Island Blue Rat snakes I’ll be breeding this upcoming season. Against the blue sky her belly doesn’t look as blue in the photo, but in person it’s very blue. When her boyfriend is done shedding I’ll be getting photos of him because he is super blue. These Kunashirs get bluer as they age, so generally the bluest ones you see are older.

I got to check another dream species off my list thanks to my friend Dillon at CBC Exotics, Sanzinia madagascariensis volontany. The Western Sanzinia, aka Mandarin Sanzinia. Such a cool species, and in just a short time now of interacting with her I can tell there is something special about them. Very inquisitive and intelligent species of snake. #sanzinia #sanziniamadagascariensisvolontany #mandarinsanzinia #westernsanzinia #treeboa #madagascartreeboa #babyboa #babysnake #snakebreeder #snakekeeper #boabreeder #snake
