Yeah dave thats the girl though pics don't do either of them justice. When i originally got them as hatchies i asked Rob for two contrasting patterns as these guys are something i really want to develop and see what they can produce.
Though i do like the strong thick dark bands of the male too. What isn't to like about womas?? except a bite i guess :)

Sweet pair there taylor.......
 
had an interesting observation tonight. Thursdays (bin night) being my set cleaning night noticed the male boodarie pacing his cage and being unusually active. So i thought for something different while i cleaned his cage i would place him in with the female. Last seasson she showed little interest in him for ages but tonight they were all over each other, both tails going a million miles an hour similar to a over horny male spurring though no hook ups not that i was excepting any this early in the season but as tails aligned to each other his wiggling got more fanatic. Obviously he was enjoying himself and she didn't mind his advances. Facinating to watch as last year they were so sectretive.
Good signs for this coming season.

Alot of my snakes are like that, especially the womas, as soon as they see the oposite sex they'll go crazy, I had some childrens out a few weeks ago in my hands and the female started tail waging, good luck for this season, it's a good sign, allthough I probably wouldn't bother with the introductions yet, keep em keen.
 
yes way to early for proper introductions, i've still got a solid 4 weeks of feeding at least left until i start really reducing temps and backing off the food intakes. Just a cool spectical as last season i was all in the hide box action, not a free for all, all around the cage moving stuff. But defineatley some interest there. Bring on jun/july intro's
 
Here are some of my tanami womas

very nice greenmad really good size and condition, should get some nice offspring for them

thanks yommy they bred for me last year with nice healthy hatchies
 
I'm assuming, because no1 else made a big deal about it that it must have been a trick of light common to photographing womas (being an aspiring woma owner, not an actual one, i dont know). But back a fair way, wasnt there a photo of a blue phase woma? I have never heard of this, but then again I have never looked for one. can anyone shed any light on this for me as i am obsessed with blue phase and white albinos.

you sparked my interest witha blue woma so went through the thread for a look.
Pg 5 No-two's SA woma. Probably the best example of an SA i've seen, they tend to take on the silvery blue colour in some though it could also have been going into a shed cycle as i have a patternless adult childreni that come shed time she goes from a rich brown to a pale grey silver, quite a contrast in colour change from the norm.

No-two any more pics of this particular animal if it's that colour normally put me on the list for some as that is a speccy animal :)

And as for albino womas there are rumours and it would be awesome if true, i'd re-mortgage the home loan for some of those. But like they say if there no photographic proof it never happened. and this elusive albino woma will just be a fishing story

Sorry i should have clarified, blue phases and white albinos in general. I currently have a blue phase common tree snake, looking for white albino olive when i win the lottery. in the meantime a blue phase woma would be a fantastic display animal. does anyone know if womas do hormonal blues like the GTP? or shedding blues/silvers like yommy's anteresia?

and jommy if there was such a thing as a white albino woma, ill fight u for it! ;) (you can keep all the yellows)

Sye
 
Not a woma my apologies. But here is the female childreni for those who thought i was pulling ya leg - mid shed cycle.

And also one to keep with the theme of the thread :)

does your anteresia have something wrong with its tail? (it seems to get very thin at one point) and that photo makes it look much bigger than a childreni, almost as large as a small-medium adult olive size.
Gorgeous woma

You don't keep childreni do you??

It's defineately a childreni (katherine NT locality) from Reedys Reptiles. It has the same tail as all my other ones though she is a large adult 6 years now and about 1m +. Bred some top babies for her in the last 3 season which all started patterned.

As this is a woma thread, I'll put some pics of her in the 'Show us ya Antaresia' thread thats on APS.

Though i do have a flavour for the unusual :)
 
yommy - where did you get that patternless woma from? Really weird colour for a woma......... =)
