Nice sunny day in brissy on the weekend. This is a female mixed local tully over atherton (thats what it was purchased as anyway), not the brightest yellow but she is a nice calm girl and at 11 months she loves a feed.
 
He has a good appetite. 3 adult rats look good in snakes skin.

Kris.
 
Yeah.........he's alright I guess ;) Seriously, why would anyone want jags when you can have such awesome looking animals here?
 
I wish I could get my boy to eat regularly let alone 3 in a sitting how old is he Kris???

Thanks Dave,
That was bred by a local guy Alistair I think he is aliali on APS. I think he just sold the parents recently. Think it was Roger Lester tully and I don't know much about the atherton.
Is massive compared to the palmerstones and sxr line animals I have, she is the reason for the bigger rats I got last time.

Cheers

Bigger than SXR Athertons?That line produces animals that get huge,I have a couple of 7 footers and had an 8 footer thicker than say 2 coke cans.If they're bigger than SXR jungles depending what line I'd be surprised to see any that get bigger and still holding colour.It wouldn't be classed as a TRUE jungle which are tiny and inhabit the thick rainforests tending to gt not much bigger than 4-5 foot max.

Hey Browns,
I only have five animals and they're all only 10-11 months old so not a huge amount of expeirience. That animal is by far the best feeder so it could be just that. She is around 1200mm at 11 months where my others are between 750mm-1000mm. She was also my first so I probably upgraded her food a bit quick while I was in no hurry with the others I got a few months later.
Just out of interest are there any documents which go through the history of the various blood lines such as SXR or are they closely guarded secrets. I have been through the SXR website but couldn't find much own the development of the line.

Cheers.
 
Wait till they get to 3-4 years and older nd I guarantee you will see what I mean.They are Athertons which are well known to reach up to 10 foot and are usually quite dull animals however SXR produces some top quality animals also I know they have put a Palmerston across their Athertons which I have discussed with Simon several times and what the crossing of 2 completely different types of jungles and what the outcome would be as Palmerstons tend to all fade and get black smudging in the gold/yellow however SXR Athertons can hold their color well into adulthood so crossing the 2 lines should produce even brighter coloured animals that hold the colour without smudging as well as bringing the size of SXR Athertons crossed to smaller Palmerstons producing smaller adults with great colour that doesn't smudge or get too big.

I do know the original locality but won't be saying where as they are notmy animals therefore it's not right to give out information like that without permission of the owner of the bloodline.
