Just bought a male 05 snow the other day so I can pair it up with Esme in a year or two (amel stripe het butter and snow). Thought I would share some shots:
he's a big lad, at over 4ft....

Even in a couple of years Esme would be too small to breed with an 05 male. Or atleast i would have personally thought so.
The male would probably be atleast twice if not three times her weight.
How Old is Esme now? in that picture she only looks like a little hatchling. |

The purchase was not just for breeding reasons, and I wouldn't be putting a tiny female to a huge male. The rate she eats and grows I can forsee her being a big lass in a 2-3yrs. There is no hurry for anything. |

I see, its just the way you worded the first statement it was as if you bought the male mainly for breeding and was going to introduce them as soon as the female waqs ready.
They are some beautifull snakes though, esoecially the amel stripe. |

What fantastic pics Karl, they show off Esme and Carlisle beautifully.
Esme's stripe is a lovely colour and I think the small 'streaks' on her head are striking.
I must admit that I am not a fan of snows, but Carlisle is already showing some beautifully shading....it will be interesting to see how that develops as he grows.

best thing is is he is a complete darling. Only held him a few times (as he escaped during water changes) and he is nothing but a gent. He is drinking like mad, never known a snake drink so much! He has just come out of cooling though. |
ooops, I bought another......... |

Camera is a Sony A200 with an HVL F42AM flash and a 100mm macro lens
The names, I have to admit I named them all after the Twilight books. |

Nice ones and that cute little "shoe lace" is lovely. I can't remember who I stole the terminology "shoe lace" from in this forum, but I hope you don't mind.It's better than the piece of thread with a head attached that I was using for hatchlings.[quote]Originally posted by Karl
