I love diamonds, he is so cute! Hard to believe they start so small but get so big. Hoping my next snake will be a diamond.

Thanks guys!

I can't get over how placid he is - My other snake Mesaana is still a bit flighty and bites occasionally.

Hey Jazz,

It was great meeting you on Friday night and I'm glad you are happy with the little fella! He has had a gorgeous nature since he hatched and Im sure he'll stay that way... he takes after his parents!!!

Awww did you miss me Hornet?

This was our only baby we had to sell as we lost all the others, either in the egg or straight after birth. We have spoken to our vet at extreme lengths and done tests and it wasn't anything hereditary, just an unfortunate event.

We are breeding Miss Erwin & Tiny again this year plus he has another girlfriend to look after as well
So cross our fingers for lots more stunning little babies like Ophion!

We can't wait to see how he turns out! Keep us posted Jazz.... and we'll have to get together for that mothers meeting one day
Maybe you might want a little girlfriend for Ophion this year?

All the best,
Mell
