Medium white female is the first snake we got!! Awesome girl! Can’t wait to produce a banana pied!! Super cool!

@Grammy1313 4 года назад

It's funny what you are saying about the pied's feeding difficulty. I bought a pied one month ago he is my first snake ever. He was four months and was only eating live. As a complete amateur when it comes to snakes I have successfully switched him to frozen-thawed and he eats every time he is offered food; he even ate when he was first in blue. I didn't realize he was in blue until right after he ate. He just ate tonight. He is putting on weight like crazy.

@ToniTone888 3 года назад

what does blue mean?

@Hecksii 3 года назад

@@ToniTone888 it means that the snake is about to shed.

@schangstrong8633 9 месяцев назад

We both got lucky mine came after the frozen thawed without hesitation

@morgangobin9985 5 лет назад

I wonder why the Pied gene leads to pickiness in the first place. It’s almost like genetic defect or something, because I’ve heard about SO many people having problems. I had a friend keep my pied for awhile since I wasn’t comfortable transitioning it to frozen/thawed myself and it gave him absolute hell. It wouldn’t eat willingly and regurged on a regular basis. Luckily it’s been eating like a champ since I’ve been keeping it...but said friend hasn’t had as much success with his own pied. The poor thing actually died because it wouldn’t eat or keep anything down. Pieds are lucky they’re pretty, because they’re also absolute pains sometimes! 😓

My pie is 2 month old and he is an awesome eater so far but he is my more striking snake and I don’t know why. I’m told cause he young but my Ivory is 3 months old and he never strikes at me. So I’m thinking my pie has an attitude haha mine is all white but the head and about 2 inches on his tail but I picked him because he has emoji smile face on his tail it’s a little crooked but you can see it.

Why not bread your pied to a bamboo to make bamboo pieds with a hopefully better feeding respons.

@luotingkun 5 лет назад

Luke Cairns In my experience all the blue eye leucistic complex ball python are good eater, as well as albino, but once they mix into pieds they are not. I have a mojave pied and albino pied, both are very picky, but my other albinos and BEL are all great eater...

@danielrichards2246 Год назад

Its crazy that pies are difficult for feeding. I own about 45 ball pythons and 30 of them are pieds. I have one pied that is the best eater of any snake I've owned. He's never missed a single meal ever. I have 4 snakes though that are crazy picky eaters and 2 of them are pieds.

@ssserpentarium5968 5 лет назад

@douglasgriffiths3534 Год назад

A visual champ pied is a white snake. I've seen one. Maybe I'll get a visual pied boy and breed my champ pastel female with him. Something to consider. The champ het pied looks pied to me though. It's stunning. (Jan Griffiths).

Champagne het pieds are cool but don’t Breed them together because super champagnes are a lethal combo. You would need a champagne het with a normal het or visual pied to avoid that.

@SADDLEBAGS6969 5 лет назад

It's all about how they're living, if they're stressed out an look timid all the time they wont eat.... get a nice dark cave hide, nice substrate, I have mine in a glass tank an my pied rats really good. Infact the first week I fed him he slammed a medium rat an was slithering around climbing his stick an was just fine.... my pied has eaten every week sense I've had him, he was stressed out in a 10 gallon on a wet paper towel with no hide, they said he didnt eat for 4 weeks..... they told me he wouldn't eat for me, he hasn't stopped eating until now sense hes in mating mood....... so ya create good husbandry for your snakes an they will all be happy an eating!

Quick question I got a baby 2 months ago and he's constantly out crawling around climbing everywhere does this mean he's stressed or is he just curious my other ball python doesn't come out till late at night!?

@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures 5 лет назад

Some snakes will crawl around more than others. If they crawl all over and then go on a fast it could be stressed. If it's eating OK it's probably fine.
