Super Ball Pythons... Blood x Ball?

I've seen someone advertise a "SuperBall" they say it's a bloodxball. Is that what a superball is? Because I've wanted a blood, but I hear they are bxxxxds. I pretty much wanted a ball python that's thick as a paint can like bloods, and I can't have a snake that's too big. So if this is the true morph... I think I need to save up some money... Also if this is the case, Sammy? Mind getting a blood to lock a ball? Or the other way around. Just a normal blood and normal ball. I'm not a real big money person, but this seems very cool to me. Do people have moral issues with this? Someone just fill me in because I couldn't find much viable information.

Drew Bloody Balls were proven to be a fake, they did not naturally breed, they were the result of a A.I.

If they were artificially inseminated (that's what I assume AI is) that doesn't really make em fake does it? I guess it just means they're expensive and some people have moral qualms. Darn. I want a THICK frienldly snake... :hifit I'm sad now...

I was just reading, it says it is a cross between Borneo Short-Tail Blood Pythons and Ball Pythons, but there were many rumors floating around that they were A.I.

It says they CAN reproduce, but I am interested if it was artificially inseminated, that makes the reproduction difficult and the price expensive. Darn, I wish I could trust people... Then I could just get a friendly blood.

mixing an african python with an asian one is just stupid.
you can get a blood python instead, theyre not always bad tempered creatures. it mostly depends on how you handle them.

Lol apparently so. Yea I talked to sammy. I think I'm just gonna try to get one of the CBB bloods that Ben Seigal has. Hoping Bobby can get some information on them from him since I don't know him. And I agree that mixing em isn't a good idea.

The superball is real, I have seen some at the local shows, and on KS, but not sure if they were AI'd . Must of the bloods that are ill tempered are wild caught or just captive hatched. Most everyone I know that has CBB bloods, they are pretty laid back.

A few of my friends have Bloods and they say the same that "dorton" said... CBB are usually calm and handleable, while the WC are quite the "handful" :twisted:

I'm in agreement. Morphs are not my thing. There are plenty of interesting snakes and localities out there. But instead of finding satisfaction, we have to muddy up bloodlines and make these morphs.

I think the idea of 40,000 snakes is silly. People in the reptile market sell these things back and forth to one another thinking they'll get rich. I'd rather buy a hovercraft.
