Comin’ back to Dixie…

By Sean : EbN | August 29, 2009

Hi everyone,

Here it is… the re-motivated EbN! I know some of you have heard that before. I just wanted to throw up a quick post to say that after the Daytona NRBE Expo last weekend. I’ve decided that now is a good time to start doing some more shows.

Starting this month, I will be attempting to attend a show at least once a month in some part of this country! This month I will be set up at the Dixie Reptile Show in Birmingham, AL on September 19th. For details about this show’s hours and location, please visit their website www.DixieReptileShow.com

Something a little less normal…

By Sean : EbN | July 9, 2009

Wow Sean writes again?!? I know right? So PLEASE HELP ME!! I have about 200 normal female Ball Pythons ranging from 600 - 1500 grams that need to go! I need to make room for all the rest. If you are looking for some young, virgin girls (SNAKES NOT HUMANS!) then give me a call at the shop (985)893-0082

Anyway… I’m still waiting for the first clutches to hatch. I hate being this late to the party! I got a clutch of Diamond Python eggs the other day! I didn’t even hibernate them. The lowest temperature they go to was about 74F. She laid 5 slugs and 10 fertile eggs!

I’m keeping this one short… G’Day!

Ok… ok… I know its been a year…

By Sean : EbN | June 25, 2009

Hi everyone,

I know its been a year since I wrote on this thing. I’d say that I’m lazy but that’s just not 100% accurate! Life has been BUSY! As everyone has felt the crunch of the economy, so have we. I can’t say that business is bad because it isn’t. Its a little slow at times but sales are still there and so are we :)

Some of you may know that we have moved our breeding collection to a new private facility that we have been setting up for the past 8 months. This has been a long and arduous process but we are nearly done. Our new facility is more equipt to handle the daily chores of cage cleaning and watering as well as the ability to adjust environmental conditions more easily. We now have a larger incubation area for our Python eggs. Our old set-up was a 5′x9′x8′ room with shelves on both sides run with a radiant heating system hooked to a Helix digital temperature controller with an emergency alert system. The new room is 12′x8′x8′ giving us a lot more space to work at the same temperature as the eggs. The room is heated with the same apparatus of the previous incubator but with a little more wattage to keep the temperature a steady 88.5F

The 2009 Ball Python egg record page is up and you can click the link at the top of this page. I will be updating this as I get the clutches into the incubator.

Keep an eye on this stuff from time to time because I’ll do some updates as some interesting stuff happens around here…

Ugh yes… another month bites the dust…

By Sean : EbN | June 25, 2008

So in an effort to avoid a lot of work related stress we have been trying our hardest to focus on other parts of our life, other than WORK! It is really great to have a job that you love so much but I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… IT IS A JOB for us.

So now that we are hatching a bunch of eggs and seeing more babies I am again rejuvenated for a while. The ball python year for us is well underway and EARLY! Wow… its hard to believe there are nearly 100 clutches in the incubator/hatched already, its only JUNE! We’ve gotten some neat clutches that should be interesting and some new babies that are interesting also. A few weeks ago we hatched the first Cinnamon Pastel Genetic Stripe. At first glance in the egg we thought it was a Pewter Stripe (since that was the ultimate goal) but it developed a bit more brown color towards the end of the incubation and once it shed out we were convinced that it was indeed a CINNAMON PASTEL GENETIC STRIPE!

Keep an eye on this blog to see any other developments with this project. We have other clutches that should yield more Stripes, Cinnamon Stripes, Pastel Stripes, Super Pastel Stripes and possibly a STERLING STRIPE!

Time will tell…

Wow… a month since my last post??

By Sean : EbN | May 21, 2008

Sorry about that everyone. We actually took a vacation! Yeah, a REAL vacation not just a reptile show/business trip! Celia and I spent nearly a week in the mountains of North Carolina and then spent a day in Atlanta, Georgia. Why just one day?? Well ever since they opened that huge public aquarium in downtown Atlanta, I have been looking for an excuse to go there. The Georgia Aquarium is one of the largest and newest aquariums in the world. They have successfully kept 4 Whale Sharks in their 6.3 million gallon ocean exhibit. There is a viewing glass that is over 60 feet long and over 20 feet tall that lets you realize just how large those sharks are and how amazing the sea can be. Definitely a recommended trek if you are in the greater Atlanta area, even if its just for about 3-4 hours to enjoy this institution. To find out what ELSE we did while we were on vacation… I must direct you to Celia’s Blog that can be found at www.CeliaChien.com

See most people in this business don’t know that I actually got my start in the pet trade by working with marine fish and invertebrates. That was my real passion before I caught the reptile bug. That is also something that I long to do again, work with my finned friends again. Reptiles are great as are most of the people involved in the conservation, reproduction and commercial sides of this hobby/business but as with any job this becomes somewhat mundane. I think I would like to open up a new retail outlet in the future that caters not only to the reptile and amphibian hobbyists but also the OTHER SCALY wonders of the world. Celia and I have talked and argued about this many times and maybe some day I will be motivated enough to do something about it. Until then I still have my other hobbies and also understand the point of a very well deserved VACATION!

Ok… since I last wrote on here we have gotten to Ball Python clutch #60 and hatched the first 5 or so clutches. Again, you can find our list at the top of this page and if you have any interest or questions regarding this or anything else on the website, please feel free to call or e-mail us anytime!

Uggghhh… Being sick SUCKS!

By Sean : EbN | April 22, 2008

I hope everyone’s week is going better than mine! Yesterday I came down with a TERRIBLE cold or something and it knocked me OUT! Celia and I both caught it but she is, of course, much better off than I am. I guess I’m not all that healthy because when stuff like this hits me it hits hard! Oh well… things are getting better today.

We are up to 27 Ball Python clutches so far… not too bad. I’m looking forward to several of these clutches popping out some neat stuff. Should be an exciting summer around here.

On the 14th we had our first litter of Boas and it sure was a nice one! It was the same breeding we did last year between our original male Aztec and a female Salmon Hypo. This is the breeding that we produced the first Hytec (Hypo Aztec) Boas from. She did a great job again producing 21 perfect live babies with only 6 slugs. You can see a few photos of this litter on our new Boa litter record page listed above.

One last thing… Celia has decided to have an online chat support through Yahoo! Messenger All you have to do is go to that link and download and install the messenger program and add her as a buddy. Her screen name is ebn_celia Or click part of the link below…

MESSAGE ME!!
Add me to your buddy list

Now you can’t say that we aren’t the EASIEST reptile company in the world to communicate with. You can reach us at our physical location, telephone, e-mail & instant chat!
