THE VPI DIARY

08/27/11 B

I found this little guy after it looked like he either fell out of his tree or crashed into something on the ground. We gave him a little H2O and let him rest quietly for the night, and he seems to have snapped out of it this morning. Off he flew so he can brave the wilds once again. These birds are precious, but very fierce. Don't let their size fool you they are super aggressive with each other when guarding a feeding area!

This was a neat surprise. It is the first time I have seen a striped baby like this out of the VPI Caramel Albino project. The parents were a male that was 100% het VPI Caramel Albino ("Unrelated" line x het VPI) x with a female that was a poss het (from VPI line het x het).

The long summer without a drop of rain has really taken a toll on the deer and all the wildlife here in Texas. We fashioned a little watering hole and every day there are deer, armadillo, rabbits, and a huge variety of birds that come in to it.

Well the babies from the yellow x yellow albinos hatched and they look really great. Let me tell you how great they will look in about 4-6 months! 

Here is another baby-they all look great! I got a great ratio 3 males and 5 females!

This snake is crazy! She was hatched by Mack Robinette last year. I just love the "Spieds" (Spider Pied). VPI and Robinette Reptiles have been working on the Pied projects and this is just one of the combinations we are loving!

I just love the color of these snakes. A deep red! The albinos from last time are amazing and I really need to update photos. I hope I can get a few more in this clutch!

This was a litter I really waited a long time for! The mom is the cleanest Ghost boa that we have ever had. I patiently raised her from a baby to breed with our best Pink Panther Caramel Albino male.

Albino Magpie. Is this one? It does not appear like I envisioned, definately not like any Magpie we have ever hatched. It is a beautiful and delicate snake that is missing a whole lot of things I thought would be present in the Albino version. It is amazing! I have a feeling that  there is going to be a lot in store for Blood Python lovers!
