I just saw this post and all I can say is WOW! They are all incredible. Is the Mojave a Pastel Mojave or just a regular? Either way it is outstanding. What is the last one?

Thanks.
The mojave is just a really nice example of one IMO. I hope she makes some awesome pastaves when bred to my light pastel in the second pic. He is over 1200 grams and held his color very well IMO.
The last one is a CH animal. I picked up a 1.1 pair of them and plan on breeding them in the future.

Wow awesome BPS, LOVE that albino.. I love how much variety there is of bps. I with I had the heart to feed live adult rodents I would love to have some bp's but most don't eat frozen.

They all eat f/t.
Most of mine will take it just by laying it in the tub. No teasing needed.

Actually, most can be trained to eat frozen/thawed rodents. Some will eat only mice or only rats, but most will learn to take f/t. I converted both of the normals that I have, and a breeder tried my pastel on f/t before I bought him. If you know a breeder, you might ask that he or she try the animal you want on f/t before you purchase. Converting them is not difficult.

The one bp I got costed 650$(a lot to me) and they SAID it ate f/t but it ate live actually. In 9 months I got it to eat 3 live mice with offers live/frozen every week. I then was forced to give it to another breeder so it didn't die, because I had no experience on force feeding.

Again I love that albino, my favourite type of bps.

That's odd. I have had people on payment plans for animals and gotten them on f/t so when they were paid off and shipped the customer had an animal off live. Did you contact the breeder about this? Only eating 3 mice in 9 months does not sound like a healthy BP. If it ate that sporadically, I doubt it ever took f/t. Do you know how it is doing now? What type of setup did you have it in?

Breeder never posted again after the incodent. The female bred for the first time this year. I had it in a 40G breeder tank, 91o temperatures, hide, water ect. It's eating live now it unfortuently never ate frozen. Honestly I shouldn't have bought it it seemed a little light on the ad, but it was a good deal. Probaly was a ch baby that was used to gerbils or something. I don't know but 2 months of force feeding and it started eating.

Now sorry to kinda hijack your thread. Do you have any Lessers? If so can you post a picture?
