Bit of a troublesome shed, had to help him with the last third or so.

Some pics of my RHD's I'm pairing this season. Sorry about the bad lighting!

 

[bkevo]

love your RHD's Jason.. girlfriend hassles me to grab one off u

 

[benjamind2010]

Wow Jason, they are stunning, even if the lighting isn't the best
What can I say? I'm looking so very forward to the results of this pairing

Looks like one is following the other off to the love nest in that last shot....

 

[Jason]

Thanks guys, really looking forward to what they may produce.

Yer, that was his first ever encounter with a female, he was happy to be out but she definitely got his attention for a little bit, he followed her around the room for a few min.

And my only two remaining Boodaries. Not sure if I'm gonna keep them, I'm trying to cut back but these ones I really dont want to part with! keep your eye on the for sale section The male is my pick of the clutch from 2009 and the female was my pick from 2010. I reckon they'd go on to produce some stunners for sure! great banding and color, these guys glow in the flesh! Again, bad lighting

 

[pythonmum]

Why not keep a token pair of Boodaries? The ones I got from you are an absolute delight. The male was a bit reactive for about 36 hours, then calmed down. The female is always mellow. They are polite about their meals (but always happy to eat), great to handle and a pleasure to look at. What's not to love? Chris1 came over for a peek and tried to pocket one!

I love the solid bars, Ive been currently monitoring a few white spots on the side and head of my woma which seem to be getting more prominent, I just thought they were scars but now im not sure.

Pic or some on the white spots,
one on his head

others on his body. they are getting lighter, are they anything to be worried about or just ignore them?

Glad yours are going well! your little male would be the best colored hatchie I've produced, cant wait to see how he turns out! I'll probably sit on this pair for a while and see how they go. I haven't really got anywhere for them as adults though, I guess i can fix that though
Womas are a pleasure to keep!



Matt, what is the scale texture like? are the 'white' scales exactly the same as others or are they a little 'drier/rougher'?

 

[matt1084]

same texture, at first i thought it was just a retained shed but its since shed and its gotten lighter. ill keep an eye on it as it grows. the spot on his head is really white but the others are not so prominant but hes got a few spots.

 

[yommy]

Not to shabby those RDH Jason

 

[JoygasmPie]

Nothing spectacular, just my tanami looking adorable.

My-Two,
Pic 1 & 2 of my Male, he has some erratic banding, full dorsal stripe and spotted neck,
Pic 3 & 4 of my Female, nice Topaz girl.
Both animals look darker in the photos, they are both much brighter in the flesh.

As Im moving interstate and have to cut back the bulk of my collection, I may be putting this pair on the market, decent offers considered.

It's entirely within the realm of possibility that you could be seeing the beginning of a calico mutation. Some snakes have white scales in random places and some even have patches of scales where there is no pigment and they just look like what you'd expect on a leucistic snake. Leucistic is different from albino in that leucistic removes all pigment whereas albino only removes the black/brown/blue/purple or other melanin-based pigments. Not sure what the super form of this on womas would be but it could even be leucistic.

I'd keep this one if I were you, just to see how this colouring progresses. If it is indeed an inheritable trait you could develop a "calico" morph. I'm not a fan of calico morphs myself, but I really love the leucistic morphs where you have a completely pure white snake.

Not to shabby those RDH Jason

Hehehe, they're among the best RHD womas I've ever seen. I think URS and Brad Oliver also have some absolute screamers but to be honest I'd prefer to source my womas from somewhere local in the Sydney/Newcastle area.
