The Potential of the 'Bamboo' Ball Python!

[@definit1on119]

Bobby needs a raise! Putting in so much air time lol

[@karyannfontaine8757]

Bobby, the best representative of Bamboo Ball Pythons. The Clown Bamboo looks like an Ivory (Super Matrix) Blood Python. Love the Pinstripe Bamboo, will you be making more this year? The Champagne Bamboo was a surprise- what a snake! Love that Combination.

[@karimwalieddine2598]

Amazing video ! This definitely needs to be a serie where you talk about a certain morph and it's potential ! Maybe do the axanthic next ?

[@yvonnerogers6429]

Bamboo talk AND drone footage?! Perfection! 👌🏻 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻Thank you! 🙏

[@katiemathias4514]

I’m mad at you Chris. Showing off all these amazing combos now I’m going to have to get a bamboo. Ok disclaimer yeah wanted one anyways....

[@corald3638]

These morph videos have me spending all my money...xD

[@jennybiggs1739]

Oh cool! I've got a few snakes from Breeder's Circle, where you got Bobby from! They produce some great lines! I'm definitely interested in working with bamboo - this was informative!

[@Paintopia_VR]

Your drone footage is beautiful Chris

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Thanks 👍

[@permanentmarqsify]

Thanks man. I asked you about this morph on live yesterday!!

[@newgenexo7580]

You got me at the super enchi bamboo . Now I have to get one ! Keep up the quality morph vids chris 👍

[@Duzzer_One]

Hello Chris, I feel I have to thank you, you've been the soul reason in my recent investment. I put a beautiful baby bamboo spider boy on hold on morph market. Along with the boy, I bought three other balls. One is a Fire OD ph DG (male), the other is an OD ph DG(female), and the last is an awesome lemon blast (male). I've been wanting to breed reptiles for a long time now. I've owned them for years but never brought myself to actually breeding them. I hope in 3 years time or so this boy will produce some beautiful babies. Great content my guy, keep up the awesome work.

[@scottwilliamson7157]

Always wanted the bamboo since early 2000, worth the wait! Thor!!!!!!!!!! I think he going into shed! 🐍👍. Doing great, exploring, sweet, ate, pooped and seems to be ready to eat again! 😊🤗Lil piggy! Scott is at ahhhhh with the drone footage, he has been wanting to upgrade his drone for sometime now (he really wants that follow feature) for his Razor, quad and etc. (Lol I suggested the lawn mower too, lol, chores!) Great video and beautiful footage! P.S. I am Eyeing the coffee mug, ......nice.

[@johncomeau66]

The last scene on your drone footage was sweet it was cool to see the speed and height of drone great video

[@_sweetdreams_529]

The bamboo morph is awesome! I'm thinking about getting either a bamboo ghost or a humblebee paradox off of morphmarket.

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Go for it!

[@treybarker936]

I hope to see you making some Bamboo Clowns soon. Are you working on it?

[@mussu4859]

I just got my first ball python, he is Bamboo coral glow and it's surprising i get so little information about his combo, it was unintentional choice. We just went for a snake available xD now am learning all about morphs

[@HealerAmberNicole]

You’ve convinced me. I need a bamboo now.

[@soupajaggah4534]

Love that end footage

[@EliteExoticsBp]

Oooo ya super Enchi bamboo sunset 🤤🥰great topic Chris ✌️✌️✌️Ausome video 🤘🏻🤘🏻take care brother

[@raredog939]

Question? You have a great knowledge of morphs and genetics. Especially for someone who's not been in Ball Python a really long time. Does your past education, I know it was science based, help you grasp what seems to be a complicated thing to understand and easily learn? To most of us you may as well be speaking Greek because it's not so easy to understand.. Love your dedication to being such a well rounded educated breeder.

[@bipolaraquatics]

Bamboo looks pretty versatile lots good combos

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I agree!

[@blntmanreptiles8800]

I do love the bamboos some really good different ways to go with it but with so many Gene's out there are limitless ways to blend

[@jimiwilliams7176]

Your place looks like where i live 100 yards from where i have live since i was born in any direction looks the same as yours its great place

[@taeviansworldofreptiles3828]

Bobby felt so special being recognized in this video lol

[@punkrawkahballpythons]

I need a bamboo now!!! I've always wanted on because of Bobby but never realy took the time to check out the combos. Oh my heading to morph market now!!!

[@kinte1870]

Finally a show about Bobby ..we only need to see Bobby for this demonstration

[@dylanwickund9109]

Ive just got a bamboo lemonblast poss HRA poss het hypo for 500$ so stoked to finally have one i remember when they came out and where 10grand

[@walkerscalls]

Bamboo Phantom or Bamboo Mystic are my favorite bamboo. BEL with a ghostly bamboo pattern.

[@alanprado4908]

Will you be at Reptile expo in denver next month? What BP’s will be available if so?

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I'll be at Reptilian Nation on the first day but I won't have a table and won't have any snakes. I'll just have my camera LOL. I'll probably be there from 10 AM to 1 PM.

[@KYKonstrictorsandExotics]

Cool video. Love the footage of the drone. Been thinking about getting some more stable equipment to film my videos. A good drone is definitely in the discussion. Love the bamboo gene. I'm currently working the bamboo/ultramel project. My pastel bamboo is currently building as we speak. And if you want to see what a good pastel bamboo looks like,come check her out on my channel!!! Her head is literally glowing! Have a good day bud

[@suzystone244]

Hi chris. Been abit for me to comment. Dealing with temp issues and cold drops in my reptile room. Hence the humidifier fogger. Meanwhile the kids are doing good. Signed OCD herp girl🤣❤

[@corald3638]

I'll be waiting for one of his son's to be posted for sale! I want a clone of Bobby, ideally het albino. I haven't been able to find really any other bamboo lines with that defined of a pattern. It's like spider, but better.

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

It really is!

[@p.l.3377]

Just went on morphmarket. Zero Calico Bamboos. Chris, get to it!

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I know, they are pretty rare.

[@ballpythons6776]

I'm getting a bamboo pastel 50% het hypo female, gonna put her to either my highway male , my desert ghost pinstripe, or might buy a hypo combo. My goal is to get people into bamboo more.

[@jetman1963]

Chris, Axanthic Bamboo!

[@DasChristoff]

Awesome video! I just bought a beautiful bamboo sugar from slither reptiles. I wanted both genes and this video was very helpful! I don’t think the all white snakes are dead end projects. The majority of customers are pet owners and not breeders. As you said, everyone wants to hold your all white snakes at the shows! I think all white BPs are amazing. I have a super fire that I wanted not only for my breeding projects but I’ve always wanted a all white BP. 👍👊

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

It's a 'dead end' project as far as a ball python artist is concerned, sort of like you are painting a picture and you paint with two colors and your canvas turns white and every color you have in your hand turns white. Can't really add anything to a white snake to enhance it further. It can be used as a powerful breeder though and by itself is pretty awesome.

[@hotboiarmani6481]

where can I purchase bamboo ball pythons I cannot find any website with any available I checked morph market but I can’t find any plain bamboos .. is it just a seasonal thing?

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I should have more in a few months.

[@feliciatate-salmon3384]

Hi Chris this is Richard me and my wife share an account you’re by far my favorite KZbinr. I have some ?’s and some ideas that might shake the whole BP community I don’t want to post them in the open maybe it’s nothing but I feel I could be on to something huge. Could you spare some time for a quick convo i’m not sure how you want to go about exchanging contact information? Any feedback appreciated if you don’t have time I understand Thanks your videos are the best.

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

You can post them here in the comments section, I'll see them.

[@feliciatate-salmon3384]

First of all what are your Thoughts on the hurricane gene and monsoon gene? If I could afford the monsoonI would cross them and name it the perfect storm. Secondly We know it’s a super spider is lethal combo but When you put Blackhead in the mix Does it completely eliminate the head wobble and if it does could you take two spider blackheads breed them will the resulting offspring survive? Has it been tried and are there other genes that act as blackhead dose with spider? This blackhead help with other genetic problems or neurological problems and other genes?

[@feliciatate-salmon3384]

Also do you think the Daddy gene greatly improves color and pattern mutation of snakes in the BEL complex if so does it work with black eyed as well as blue-eyed. I’m not sure but I don’t think it really noticeably affects anything outside of BEL’s. I’ve got my eye on a bamboo Daddy and in my opinion It is the cleanest best looking bamboo next to Bobby I have ever seen just kind of wondering how much of a role daddy played in the color And cleanliness of pattern.

[@amandaschell]

My boy essence is pastel bamboo. We're shopping for a girlfriend but i haven't settled on my direction yet. Thanks for the tips ❤

[@odinoutlaw]

Do you have any bamboos for sale?

[@southernballs6985]

When will you have some bamboo hatchlings

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Probably mid summer.

[@southernballs6985]

Make sure you make a video. I want a baby Bobby.

[@StLMikie]

Could I talk you into putting a link in the description to your morph market page?

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Here's the link: www.morphmarket.com/us/c/reptiles?store=cchardwick

[@BuyestFan]

NIce views at the end. Almost like in my country :)

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Cool 👍

[@stormzwarrior1462]

I want a bamboo calico some day!

[@sertank735]

I’ll wait for bamboo hatchlings to go down to $100 where they belong.

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I doubt they will ever go that low. Same with Pieds and Clowns, pretty much the same price that they were five years ago.

[@sertank735]

Considering it’s a co-dom that’s becoming more and more popular and more readily available, we’ll see. Thanks for the reply. Love the content, which is pretty interesting.

[@DIDToddlers]

Goldie made it safely. Thank you

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Awesome!!

[@johncarlisle844]

Hey there where could i get get the bedding for snakes at

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I buy it directly from Prococo by the half pallet. Check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6bYe5Snf9uUbMk

[@margaretmoniz1254]

Bobby is a handsome boy!

[@grimstreamer2.046]

How can you tell of you have a pastel or a normal?

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

A Pastel is usually a bit more yellow and some have reduced pattern and I'm pretty sure all of them have green eyes.

[@mosesmolina6044]

I just got my bamboo female wahooo

[@BuyestFan]

If you have Banana Pastel Calico male banging some bamboo female you can only hit cool snakes! www.morphmarket.com/eu/c/reptiles/pythons/ball-pythons/139243 Theres Banana Pastel Calico which is so cool also! Well banana calico maybe not that nice but all the rest are cool!

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Awesome!

[@boneznovacane7630]

The view though where you from ?

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I'm in the mountains of Colorado

[@richcorbett6491]

Hello guys how are you glad to see you’re at you have a question what is the one snake that can’t be bread because she’ll die remember you telling me but I don’t remember what it’s called thanks

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Don't breed a Desert female.

[@richcorbett6491]

Chris Hardwick thank you

[@sertank735]

BELs are where the moneys at. 400 a pop for hatchlings, just for 2 genes. Bamboos are WAY overpriced.

[@StLMikie]

Are you a hunter Chris?

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I like to go bird hunting.

[@redsound9333]

On morph market most of the bamboo ball pythons are not pure bamboos. They are other morphs mixed with bamboo.

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

I've also noticed that a lot of Bamboos over there are not real bright like Bobby.

[@boneznovacane7630]

Great way to end the video

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Glad you liked it!
