everyone today I'm going to give you a
update of how my REE tics are doing I
only have super dwarf retakes and lots
of people have a lot of interest in the
size of retakes with their age do they
get really big do they actually stay
small with I have six of them five of
them I raised from the time that they
were babies and one of them I bought as
a large snake so I'm gonna start off
with the biggest oldest and work my way
down so this is Queen Queen is by far my
largest one a first or second generation
super dwarf so she's actually supposed
to be a hundred percent super dwarf she
was produced by Henri tyran pyrin I
don't know if I pronounce his name
properly but he imported some of the
first ones into Canada he produced a
batch of viewers from them from his wild
cot and this was from either the first
or second generation she was bought by a
guy that goes by the name of second skin
and after about two three years of
having her she had a funny shed while
the color came off of her so she looked
like an ivory she looks like mostly
almost white over time developed some of
her color again but it was never the
same as what her what she looked like
originally you can see that she actually
has some white spots there's some on her
neck
she has those white spots there she has
a few the nice ones right there you got
that so when you look at her pattern it
looks very almost as if someone took the
blur tool and blurred her out I'll show
you a couple pictures of her from when
she was a baby
I don't have a lot but I have a picture
of her from when she was a baby I also
have a picture of her I believe her
first litter
when she was about five years old and
she was she was just tiny
I have a friend Chris L I don't know if
I can say his last name either it's like
Chris Levesque Levesque II I don't know
something like that and he had a pair of
her babies and they're producing now at
a tiny tiny size I'll show you a picture
but they're some of the smallest ones
I've ever seen
I think she's fabulous she's super sweet
she is very inquisitive like she does
not want to stop moving but she's not
aggressive she's never struck at me she
just very looks around at everything
doesn't stop moving after she had that
ship
she went brighter it's what's people
called calico so she went calico and
that's what those white spots are to my
knowledge I don't know of any other
super dwarfs that are calico so she
might be one of the few I'm very excited
to see if that affects her babies later
to come after second skin got sick and
he sold off his collection a guy named
Chris
Dyer's he's in ninth grade he bought her
and he's had her since then I'm not sure
how often eat better I think he'd better
very well because she is just pretty
good size 11 feet long and 30 pounds so
still nothing close to a mainland but
she is a sweetheart hopefully you'll see
babies from her next year next up we
have ivy Ivy is a 75% super dwarf she's
head for lavender
she was produced by on Chuck Royale in
2015 she's four years old she was bought
by a guy named Brad who ended up in some
unfortunate situation where he needed to
raise money to fix his car and he ended
up selling her to me and that made me
very happy and Brad is now my friend
she's got some character I've never been
struck at by her I've never been bit by
her and Brad said he took a bite from
her when it comes to the to the retakes
I always give them extra respect I'm
extra careful with
I always use like a hooker something to
get them out I never just reach in and
grab them because I don't really want to
get bit by them they do seem to have
more serious teeth than Boas do so you
can see that size it's very manageable
still I don't think she's gonna get much
longer
right now she's sitting at around 8 feet
and she started to thicken out so I am
gonna try and put some nails to her
later this season and see what happens
and that's IV for you you might wonder
wow that's a beautiful height where did
you get that I found that buying them
this is really expensive so on garbage
day you can find plastic bins and make
your own homes I made a little video
about that so I'll stick a link up check
it out enjoy let's say goodbye to ivy
with the retexe I found that some of
them like to hide some of them don't I'd
say probably about 50% of them really
enjoy hiding the other ones they're
never in their Hyatts I'd like to just
chill out whoa we tics are not really
good for a first-time snake owner once
you take them out they're totally chill
they're fine
like now I'm not worried about him
biting or anything but when you first
open up their home they're just like
excited they're like oh my god you're
gonna feed me feed me feed me feed me so
Hercules was also produced by Chuck
Royale he's a 75% super dwarf and he is
a purple albino
he was actually my first super dwarf
retic very happy with him so he was born
I believe in 2016 now he's 3 years old
he's starting to thicken out a bit but
this is his it seems like it's his
adults eyes he might get a little bit
bigger but then 3 years old there he is
was much smaller than IV is so I'm gonna
be trying to put him towards Queen and 2
IV later this year we'll see what
happens he's one of the ones that every
time I get him he's just he's ready to
go he's like beat me feed me feed me
okay this is Jasmine Jasmine out of all
my retakes is my favorite for her
personality she's just a sweetheart
I still use the snake hook to get her
out but she's one that I feel confident
that without the snake hook I could just
grab her take her out and she's always
fine she's always sweet and so she's a
fire tiger a hit purple albino and she's
also produced by Chuck Royale she's 60
8.75% super Dorf and she is 2 years old
so what's going to be interesting to see
is that I have her stuck in my pants
take note of her size and she's quite
manageable still talk about a snake
being clingy huh well very good very
good very good okay so let's take it
good look at her body just so you can
remember her size so we're gonna pick
compare her to a two-year-old enry ultra
when I first saw the ultra gene it was
just my favorite gene I thought it was
the coolest most beautiful snake I've
ever seen this snake was just gonna be
able to make ultras so this is a
platinum or a fire fire and platinum are
basically the same gene some people call
them fire some people call them platinum
they have three different forms that
they can make just like the albino
there's the purple albino there's the
lavendar albino and there is the white
albino with these guys they can make
ultras which are more yellow they can
make ivories which are more white and
then they can make the leucistic switch
are just totally white with blue eyes
and amazing so remember this two years
old 68.75 super dwarf and now I'm going
to bring out a 50% super dwarf from Bob
Clark so this is Calypso Calypso is a
two-year-old 50 percent super dwarf
produced by Bob Clark
personality-wise she is a little
strong-willed
I'll get bit by her every now and then
it's tricky with her because lots of
time she'll act super nice she'll be
sweet she'll never strike me she's being
good now but one thing that I'd like to
try doing with snakes is playing with
their face a lot to slowly get them
desensitized because
the snake is used to its face being
touched and pad and not reacting then
you should be able to pet it anywhere
well I've been trying to get closer to
her head and pet her kind of like that's
the only time that she's kind of turned
around and bit me into hand so it's been
a little bit it's been a little bit
scary to work with her but I'm trying to
work with her a lot more now before she
gets bigger because she'll probably end
up being my biggest snake at the same
time when I look at her size compared to
Jasmine's
they seem almost the same size she's
just a little longer and a little
thicker so I'm really excited to see
where she ends up size-wise compared to
the 75 percents I'm very happy with her
I believe that Calypso is the oldest
enry altra that we have here in Canada
so that's exciting
so hopefully she'll be able to produce
babies in a few years very excited for
that
just to have even on altra was my dream
idea of a snake so to end up getting a
tannery ultra was pretty awesome and she
behaves quite well most of the time but
that's there it is a two-year-old 50%
super dwarf very manageable great animal
last but not least we have Nintendo
Nintendo is an ultra het honoree so he's
the same genes as last snake except that
he's not showing the Anri and I'm
telling you when I first saw the ultra
gene I fell in love I saw this guy's
face and I just thought they're so
beautiful and cute
Nintendo's a funny one he's not very
aggressive he's just a scaredy cat
so however he if every time I take him
out he likes to crap and piss himself
and I have to give him a little rinse
off after cuz he just he's a scaredy cat
but as soon as you get him out he's nice
he's looking around at everything he's
very kind of like Piper and explorative
but he's just he really is a scaredy cat
so as you can see he's much smaller than
Calypso when I feed my super dwarfs I do
it pretty sparingly some people say that
when there are window retakes of rubbing
around a lot so feed them more and that
keeps them tamer for me I actually find
the opposite when I'm feeding the super
dwarfs weakly I find they actually get
more aggressive because they're
expecting the food to come more so when
they're young I feed them weekly until
they're on smalls once they're on smalls
I feed them every every two weeks and
then I keep them at that and slowly up
the prey as they need to once the once
they get too large I'll drop them to
every three weeks and I haven't noticed
any ill effects of that they seem to be
fine calm slender and good and then when
it goes into breeding season I plan to
bump the females foods up to once a week
until they stop eating see if that works
that's
my plan so far I have just two males
Nintendo and Hercules and I plan to try
breeding both of them to each of the
females when ready I think that it's
exciting since Nintendo is an ultra
every baby he has will be a platinum
slash fire whatever you want to call it
so that way I'd know exactly who
produced what and any other snake
produced by Hercules would just be a
normal hit purple so cuz they've been
having these two males it's pretty good
to work with because I'm going to know
exactly who the father is
for each clutch and let's say one of the
males isn't that creative breeding or
something I'll have like double the
chances of her getting some good fertile
eggs and having some more visual morphs
and also being able to grow some double
recessive so I'm excited for Calypso the
anima ultra to be put to Hercules and
getting some double heads to make some
snows anyways that's the plan that's the
update now you can see the different
sizes and variations of some of the
super dwarfs and that's that hope you
enjoyed it like subscribe leave a
comment share your thoughts if you have
any questions I'm happy to answer them
and that's that see you later
