Bad news everyone...

The pair of angolan pythons i was offering has been sold. for those of you still interested, feel free to email me and I'd be happy to put you on the waiting list. Below are some examples from my collection. The first shot is the granddaughter of the original "hypo" angolan, the second is an unusual somewhat striped pattern, and the third is one of my favorites - just spectacular contrast and coloring.

This is one of the rarest snake species in captivity, probably less than 500 pairs here in the country. They were produced by Casey Lazik, one of the frontrunners in breeding Angolans, and great guy. You can check out his collection at www.reptilia.com . He also has a page describing these snakes - http://www.reptilia.com/angolan.htm

About my hobby
I am a bit of a perfectionist, preferring quality over quantity. So, I only own 3 species of animals, but am setting up breeding programs that will yield the most healthy and enjoyable animals possible. I am currently working with Angolan Pythons (Python anchietae) and two species of Australian Rough Knobtails: Nephrurus Amyae and N. Wheeleri Cintus. One day I hope to get a better website, but at this point all my attention goes to my animals. Enjoy! -Paul pdeboer2@netzero.com
