I found this guy at the Dixie show in Birmingham, AL today.  I couldnt believe it when I saw him.  They usually only have flames and lower ends there.  I picked up a nice mocha & cream male too but resold him, and I traded a few of my other cresteds for an adult pastel ball. Grin

Really nice.  How is that Birmingham show?  I live in Atlanta, is it worth my drive time?

He fits in with one female.  This is her.  I'm going to put them together next month.

The birmingham show is good sometimes.? This month was big.? A lot of ball python morphs, but not many cresteds, just my table and the guy I got this one from.? Next month probably wouldnt be worth the drive because of the Daytona show, it's usually slow that month, but after that it picks up again.

I just got her today for the creamsicle.  She's a light orange when fired up and this yellow color the rest of the time.

Thanks.  I got her from a friend, his last female.  She needs to put on a little more weight before breeding.  She's been laying eggs all year and is a little on the thin side.

Ebay has cheap scales.  I got mine for $15 after shipping.  Just look under kitchen or jewlers digital scales and a million of them will come up.

Right on, I got mine from ebay as well for about the same price.  Most of the bargains do not come with a calibration mass.  I didn't care because I have access to plenty of them, but you might want to shell out the extra few dollars to get one though.  Look for digiweigh or digiscale, best accuracy for the money.

Just put him together with a female yesterday and he was all over her  Grin.  Hopefully in a few months I'll get to see what he produces.

Whtwulf,
If you do decide to go to the Birmingham show let me know and I'll tell you where my table's at.  I think I've only met one other from the forums so far, I bought a few cresteds from him.

That seems to be the problem doesn't it.  You have to buy them young and pray.  Getting any breeder to part with a true female creamsicle is like trying to drive hyenas off of a fresh kill. Wink

My first was a male from Anthony, then I saw this male.? I dont think I've ever seen a "true" creamsicle female for sale.? I've seen a bunch on ks but they were'nt really creamsicles.  Next on my list is a red harley male and a couple lavendar &  cream with side stripes from Anthony, like his male Stripes

He's not for sale.  I was going to sell him the first week I had him because I have another male but he started breeding, so he will probably never be for sale.

Yea, that's an old one.  I had all my cresteds up at one time.  I was going to get into the ball python market but decided I cant get rid of my cresteds.
