Working with snakes since 2003, formerly TopNotchBoas, we switched solely to ball pythons in 2019.

This little girl just had her first shed. She's the first visual ultramel I've ever produced, from a leopard enchi het ultra/clown to a het ultra/clown. I missed on the 1/16 odds for a ultra clown, which was expected in a 5 egg clutch. I'm not seeing enchi in her but she looks obviously leopard. What do you all think?

I'll get her shed tested to see if she's het clown (66% possible), really hope she is!

Another new pickup over here, Pastel Enchi DG Het Clown female. Got this girl to push into the sunset DG clown project. She's my first DG and I'm blown away. Thanks !

14/08/2024

Sunset het clown male just in from Guys Balls !

This boy is going to be some crazy new firepower for pretty much all of my projects! Extremely excited to get him. Thanks a bunch Brett!

BH Confusion Lav x YB Pied Het Lav

This clutch was split into two egg boxes. It looks like the two non-albinos still in the egg are BH Confusion. I produced a few of those in lavender form in a previous clutch and it will be neat to compare the non-lav versions. The sole lav that has crawled out already is an obvious confusion, nice! There's also an obvious BH Confusion Lav (het pied) still in the egg. I'll have to see what the other albinos look like when they emerge to get an ID. Very happy with another excellent next level lav clutch!

YB BH Confusion Lav Het Pied Male

I produced two males of this combo in this clutch. It was a tough call because they're pretty much even but I think I've decided on this one as the keeper simply because he has more consistent unbroken striping.

BH YB Lav Het Pied

The reds pushing through on this boy are outstanding!

07/08/2024

Confusion BH YB Lav Het Pied

My odds to hit on one of these was 1/8 and I nailed 3 in a 10 egg clutch! This one was the last to shed. The other two are a 1.1 pair I'm holding back, unless I like this one more. Decisions...

06/08/2024

8 of 10 have shed out!

Decided to go ahead and separate and photograph them. There was a slight sprinkle of rain from Hurricane Debby but I went for it anyway.

YB Dreamsicle x Confusion BlackHead Lavender

05/08/2024

A handful of the first ones to shed out from my YB Dreamsicle x BlackHead Confusion Lavender clutch.

I believe these three are all BlackHead Confusion, two of which are YB. I think there may be even more YB BH Confusions waiting to shed. Smashed the odds if I'm right on these ID's. They're all 100% het pied as well!

29/07/2024

Amazing how much of a difference pastel makes in the confusion lavender combo eh? These two are clutch mates. The scalation on the pastel is pretty crazy and he's pulling in more pink in his sides as he develops.

28/07/2024

Blackhead Confusion Lavender x YB Dreamsicle clutch!

All crawled out of their eggs. 10 egg clutch, good job first time mom! Definitely hit on some good combos here. I'll wait until after they shed out to nail down ID's. The color differences between them is already obvious!

25/07/2024

Some outdoor photos of this little full-pattern dreamsicle boy. He's colored up a bit more since taking his first meal. He's got some crazy side color!

19/07/2024

This baby just had his first shed.

Mom is a Pied Het Lavender.

There were two potential dads:
1. Blackhead Dreamsicle

or

2. YB Dreamsicle

It was a 3 egg clutch and the other two are clearly YB Pieds (het lav). This one is a full pattern dreamsicle (has to be pied since both potential dads are pied). It does not appear YB to me. It also has some pretty crazy side color and opened up pattern like the BH Dreamsicle potential dad has. I'm thinking it's just a nice dreamsicle but there is a small possibility I got a splitch clutch here and it's actually a BH Dreamsicle.

What do you guys think? Normal dreamsicle or did I hit on a split clutch and get a BH dreamsicle here?

10/07/2024

Clutch 5 babies all crawled out. Pre-Shed photos.

There were two potential fathers. I saw no locks from either of them and mom never acted gravid so this was a very unexpected clutch. One potential dad was a YB Dreamsicle and the other was a BH Dreamsicle.

I knew there were two YB pied het lavs and one dreamsicle. I was waiting for the dreamsicle to emerge to determine if it was YB or not. But it is interesting. Full pattern dream with lots of lateral red coloration. That's the type of look that BH can throw with pieds. I either got a split clutch here and the dreamsicle is BH dream or it's just a very unusual dreamsicle. I don't think it is YB but I'm not certain on that yet. Either way its another head scratcher!

A little Enchi Leopard YB het Ultramel/Pied action!

07/07/2024

Nice little OD Leopard Het Pied/Ultramel Female

05/07/2024

Top Pick from Clutch 3 (ODYB Leo Enchi Pied x Ultramel)

I'm confident in OD Leo Enchi, but is it YB? There's some opened up "flames" but not extremely clear that it is YB.

What do you guys think?

He's pretty sweet either way!

04/07/2024

Happy 4th of July everyone!

Here's clutch 4, the entire clutch post shed. Pastel, Blackhead, and Confusion make for a nice variation of lavs.

From left to right (all are het pied and lavender albino): Pastel Confusion, Standard Lav, Confusion, BlackHead Pastel, and Pastel BlackHead Confusion.

Pastel BH Lav Het Pied Female

I'm thinking I will hold onto this one to make super blackhead dreams down the road. Having pastel in the mix will be a nice addition.

I'm IDing this one as BH primarily from the heavy orange blushing in her sides. In person it almost looks like she has burn marks down the sides of her. It's difficult to pick up on the camera. From her pattern alone I wouldn't necessarily have thought BH but that heavy side blushing is a BH trait and not something I've seen on a standard lav, or pastel lav. Pastel lavs start off much less colorful than standard lavs but that gets flipped once they hit the 6 month - 1 yr range. When the standard lavs start fading out the pastel versions begin to really color up. This will be a fun one to watch develop.

Confusion Lavender Albino Het Pied Female

Confusion really spices things up with Lavender!

02/07/2024

Pastel BlackHead Confusion Lav Het Pied Male !

02/07/2024

Pastel Confusion Lav Het Pied

The only thing that "confuses" me about this ID is how much pastel reduced the Confusion gene pattern. Pairing was Confusion BH Lav Het Pied x Pastel Dreamsicle. I suppose it is possible this one has BH too but I don't think so based upon a sibling from the same clutch that has another level of white space, pattern reduction, and striping. What do you guys think?

Clutch 4 - Confusion BlackHead Lav Het Pied x Pastel Dreamsicle

These are the first three to shed out.

Confusion Lav Het Pied
Pastel Blackhead Lav Het Pied
Pastel Confusion Lav Het Pied

Assuming my initial ID's are correct, it's interesting how much pastel seemed to thin out the pattern of confusion. Still left to shed out are a standard lav het pied and the all gene animal (BH Confusion Pastel Lav Het Pied).

I've raised a few pastel lavs and pastel dreamsicles. They start off more faded and pull in much more color over time versus non pastel dreams/lavs. These will be very interesting to watch develop!

27/06/2024

Top pick of the ODYB Leo Enchi Pied x Dreamsicle clutch!

I'm confident he is ODYB Enchi Pied (het Lav). I'll be growing him up to go with a number of Pastel Dreamsicles. Adding Pastel to the mix should tweak the color and help with long term color retention. I have other clutches coming in incorporating BlackHead and Confusion into the dreamsicle project as well - the push for next level dreams continues!

25/06/2024

I think I've settled on these holdbacks from clutch 1, ODYB Leo Enchi Pied (from Ozzy Boids LLC) x Dreamsicle (from ).

From left to right: Female OD Enchi Pied Het Lav, Male ODYB Enchi Pied Het Lav, Female ODYB Pied Het Lav, Male OD Enchi Pied Het Lav

I haven't really handled them much since they got on food. The female (left middle) promptly bit the male (right middle) after I sat them down here for photos. She was in go-mode! He's a tough guy though and didn't really care.

25/06/2024

Clutch 3 - ODYB Leo Enchi Pied x Ultramel

I'm pretty late to the Ultra Pied game but I think I hit on some good combos to help me catch up here!

24/06/2024

Clutch 4 - Confusion BlackHead Lav Het Pied x Pastel Dreamsicle

PreShed photos just out of their eggs.

Whiffed on the pieds, arg! Still hit on some nice combos, looks like the high white one got all the dominant genes (pastel, confusion, blackhead).

21/06/2024

Sneak peak of two more clutches starting to pip!

Clutch 3 - ODYB Leo Enchi Pied x Ultramel (9 Eggs)

Clutch 4 - Confusion BlackHead Lav Het Pied x Pastel Dreamsicle (5 Eggs): Looks like I may have whiffed on the pieds which is a little strange. Starting to worry that the male, who was originally a possible het pied, could have been falsely proven out due to s***m retention from a previous male. But it's just 5 eggs and they're not out yet, might be some dreams in there. He's also got 21 more eggs he sired this season that are still cooking so we will definitely find out for sure.

20/06/2024

The "regular" pied het lavs from clutch number 2 (YB Dreamsicle x Pied). Outstanding bloodline!

The first girl is a spicy little one! She was trying her best to bite me while still in the egg. First time I've had one do that! She was also the first to crawl out a couple days ahead of the rest of the clutch.

18/06/2024

Here's a couple high white pieds from my first two clutches this season. The interesting thing about such low pattern pieds is that the white will stay white their entire life. If you want a mostly white ball python that will stay that way high white pieds are a solid option.

The first one is from my ODYB Leopard Enchi Pied x Dreamsicle clutch. Outside of her head she only has a very small bit of color on her tail. I believe her to be leopard (which tends to create higher white pieds) and OD (from the head shifting into bright orange and what I can see on her tail). Yellowbelly and enchi are possible with her but I would expect enchi to pull in a bit more pattern (because it tends to create higher patterned pieds).

The second one is from my YB Dreamsicle x Pied clutch. He's clearly a YB. I like the tiny little dot of color near his tail.

Had no idea this girl was gravid. Never saw any locks with two different males that went in with her. One of which was a yb dreamsicle that ended up being the dad. Not sure if the dreamsicle is YB.
