The Snake Keeper Blog

Well the chill is in the air and the season is winding down. We have just one more clutch in the incubator and that will finish off our season. That should hatch out in about two more weeks. That it will be the break we need to clean out the incubator and decide what needs to be done prior to the next crop of eggs.

Right now we are working on getting into breeding mode. We are not there just yet but getting close. We have to mark all the snakes we are going to breed this season with which male they will be spending their time with during the season. That is a process that takes many hours to complete. It could take us a week just planning out who will breed who. But by doing so it makes it so easy to put the snakes together.

I will be adding some more news here and getting picture up for you to see soon. I have received emails from people wanting to see updated pics of several of the snakes. So I hope to get to some of that this week. The hypo mojaves are just doing outstanding. The extreme hypo line is being more noticed now as well. Talk about a snake that is a must have snake. The few people that have them now are so pleased with them they are looking for more. You really have to seem them in person and once you do you can see all the possibilities.

Well that is all for now. I have my webmaster working on the site again so maybe in a week we will see a new section open up. That will be exciting. So for now have a great and safe Halloween.

Okay it has been a long time. Summer was just a blur. Kids are back in school and we are winding down on the balls hatching. Only about 6 or so clutches left to hatch out. So another 6 weeks or so and we can shut down the incubator and clean it all out. It sure got its use this season.

This week we are preparing for the Chicago show. Be our first time attending this show. We have put it off for years but this time we thought we would give it a shot. So this week is all about getting out to the show with the snakes and supplies. Going to the show always throws everything off like feeding & cleaning. Also falling behind on the email. Coming home it takes hours just to catch up on all the email and get everyone answered. Some people get mad with some of my short responses. I really try to answer all questions I just do it in a short not long winded manner.

his year has been good to us. As the weeks go by I will start posting some of the cool things we hatched out this season. Many of them you already know about but some are just sitting on the shelf. Like the Super Cinnamon we took it to the Anaheim show a month ago. It sure looks cool and caught people attention. The biggest attention getting was the Paradox Hypo Super Mojave. Wow is that just the coolest snake. It is getting bigger so I will have to take some new pics of it and post them. We hope to be able to reproduce it in the coming years.

Well there is a ton to catch up on but like I said Chicago is calling so I need to get things going here. We look forward to meeting everyone there. If there is something you are wanting to see that we have drop us an email and we will see if we can bring it along.
