ABOUT ME
I have been breeding boas since 1982, and I am having a blast. We maintain about 300 boas and pythons, a few geckos and a pair of bearded dragons. At times during the summer we can have well over 1000 snakes here. Now that is a lot of mouths to feed.
My family owns the largest rodent farm in Colorado. We supply two zoo's a wholesaler and a large reptile store chain callse Scales N Tails. And of course my obsession.

GENERAL INTERESTS
I am a wife and mother of 5 wonderful kids. Ken and I have 3 boys together 21, 16, and 15. The other 2 are my step children, 32 married with a daughter and lastly my step daughter is 30 and handicapped, she lives at home and is my right hand gal.
My oldest two sons are Eagle Scouts. I love hiking and camping with the boys. I take Boy Scouts very seriously, these young men are the leaders of tomorrow. It is great watching them grow and become men. My youngest son is now working toward his eagle, so I hope some day I can say I have 3 Eagle Scouts.

Thank you, Thank you,











I love your page.

Cheers, as sparse as it is! I MUST grab Baggy to show me the ropes.









I hope you are having a good week?


















Well my week ended with a pop. I got 4 clutches of ball eggs and one of the boas had her clutch. Sadly it was 1 baby and all the rest wer un fertil folicals. I hope yours went better.















Awww I'm sorry to hear the sad news about your clutches! Though 1 has been a proper little trooper there eh? May it continue! All my fingers n toes crossed!





I've been spending some time this weekend, getting more confident in being a proper mummy to our bigger snakes! Jessie & Drew the Guyanan Red Tails can be very skittish! Usually Baggy supervises, due to their size! I have the tiniest hands in the world, and find it hard staying in control without Baggy having to intervene after 10 mins or so. I held Jessies, on my own for an entire half hour! A proud moment for me... ha ha ha





Oooo and we went to see the latest Transformer Movie...





Enjoy your week






Good for you. I was cleaning on the 4th of July and one of my big girls was none to happy with the intrusion and bit me good. I found a tooth left in my finger last night from her.




Good to hear from you... I hope all is well. Ouch about your finger... That happened to Baggy once, Sophie got him good and proper. He was showing me feeding her and, (unlike Baggy) he forgot to feed her with the tongs. Kinda my fault, as I was soooo eager to see, he just had a moment of not thinking. He had to go have an operation to get x2 or x3 teeth extracted!

These things happen I guess.

Keep Well...






I know I took a while to get back to you.  I put on a show in colorado and things have been crazy.  I had a tooth left in one of my fingers once from a big argenntine.  I went to the dr to take it out and he wanted to take x-rays and what not.  I went home and said to h with this.  Sat in the bathroom and dug at it and finally had to push it trough my finger since I could not grip the end of it with the tweezers and the point of the tooth was curved around and closer to coming out.  Darn thing looked like a rose bush thorn. 


I'm glad your keeping well. Feel free to drop by and say HI as and when you are able. I completely understand what it's like to have other commitments that can prevent us being able to get on RG as often we like. I hope the show in Colorado went well.

I have to say even more OUCH at you extracting the tooth yourself, very brave. I've been quite lucky. Only ever been bitten the once. Again all my own doing. Suprisingly it was Wesley our Ball Python. The most timid and shy of all our snakes too! LOL I'd just eaten some chicken and Wes was curled up next to me. Straight after eating I leant over and Coochy Cood him, breathing directly onto his head. Before I knew it.... STRIKE he bit my face!

Baggy walked in to the room. All embarrased I wanted to hide the fact. Alas with blood dripping down my face from various ickle holes I wasn't able to! HA HA HA Silly ME!

Keep Well!

I love your little cinnies you got! I really like the last female you produced, her colors are awesome.


















Thanks, I hope to get the rest I have in the camera up today.















I'll have to look later on! How are the Pins coming along? I have the money, I could easily buy a little cinnie off you but I don't know about being able to buy all the supplies and such :(






I am sorry I did not get to talk at the show. I was swamped, how long did you stay. I sold 2 of the pins at the show but have lots more hatching. I will give you guys a good deal on one when you are ready.


Yea, we had been looking forward to holding a little Pin while we were there. We didn't stay long, just long enough to look and see what was all new. I've been talking with Jason of Top Line Constrictors lately so I wanted to see his booth and see what he had since we're both Rosy freaks!
I would love a Pin. I was just offered a free pair of Rosy Boas I am considering but I would have to keep them in tubs since I don't have much room. What kind of price tag would you be giving us?
