The Potential of the 'Ultramel' Ball Python

[@ravenwolf8549]

That ultra pied is hands down my favorite! It looks like a painting!!!

[@lidathorn6449]

WOW I was actually going to comment that you should do Ultramel on your next video that's so funny! Ou flights are booked for the weekend of the 19th, can't wait to see Lefty in person!

[@onestopshopk3728]

Live your channel man. You the one that's got me wanting a snake since I haven't had one since a kid. Been looking at bananas but they want to much where I'm at. Was wondering if you had any ones you have extra of. Thanks brad from orlando. Ps have cage ready

[@tylarwoodward9765]

You've basically helped me decide every snake to buy for my breeding project. Spent so much time watching these videos lol thank you again for sharing your knowledge

[@agnih1650]

You missed enchi! 🥰Enchi+Ultramel=Sunbeam🥰 the name says it all

[@SayThatAgain247]

I bought that bamboo you are using in the example from chase n balls. I feel part of this video lol.

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Nice!

[@rossgraveley]

Great video 👍

[@adamroshia6596]

I love you morph series

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Thanks!

[@adamroshia6596]

@chrishardwick you should do a IG for you and bobby.

My ultramel banana pastel keeps getting brighter and more contrast ultramel is my favorite gene with banana really makes the yellow and purples pop with bright orange blushing. Plus ultramel has white flaring on the sides absolutely stunning 🤩.

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Thanks for sharing!

[@jmathers9928]

So I got my fridge cooler the fan works and the light works and everything else is unplugged but it gets really warm inside without heat or anything being put in any suggestions?

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Maybe move it to a cooler room like in the basement.

[@21stcenturyreptiles]

Is the light on constantly?

[@jmathers9928]

@@21stcenturyreptiles no the fan is the only thing constantly on

[@mauiciobarrera4706]

Hi chris I need your opinion on breeding a Double het ultramel pied to a pastel leopard pied, I'm lost.

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

You'll get half visual pieds, some Leopard pieds and half will be het ultramel.

[@familyjewels9854]

I bought into the ultramel project 3 years ago and I think the price is up from when I bought in. Very exited to see what the future holds.

[@jonflannery8984]

I’m working ultramel hard at the moment. It’s become my favorite gene in the game and I hope I can just make my mark for the hobby in my ultramel projects. Added a few pickups yesterday to the UltraPin Clown project. Sweet content Chris. I’d like to try to remain on neutral territory and I’ll just say I’ve learned quite a bit from you and I appreciate the time you take to present all your information to the community. 👍

[@ashleebenham3639]

Recently added a male ultramel, so looking forward to getting into this project!

[@justjay6151]

Ultramel bamboo is my favorite

[@mattrgraham]

Great video as usual Chris! Quick question. In one of your recent videos you said that you keep your ball pythons at 90F year round, but you didn’t mention a night drop. Do you drop temps at night? If so, by how much? I’d like to give your approach a try. Thanks and cheers from a fellow scientist! Matt

[@dylanwickund9109]

Have you seen the mohagany bamboo

[@Elbaz_python]

Can wait to hatch my ultramel pied 😍 and iam working on a triple het ultramel albino pied, might end up with a all white snake 😂 what do you think Chris

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

That's an awesome project!

[@cdd67598]

I’ve got a super mojave ultramel that is an amazing looking snake. All white with a yellowish tint to it. Definitely a cool combo

[@dylanwickund9109]

Just found out about the maple which is an inbetween monarch and ultramel

[@Alex-e6b2f]

So can you put ultramel to a clown and get a visual ultramel/clown? I'm not sure I understand. He said you need to two visuals to get visual ultramel?

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

If you breed an Ultramel to a Clown you will get all double hets, all will look normal.

[@Alex-e6b2f]

@@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures so for me if I do my clown to a 100% het clown. I will get clown visuals correct?

[@Snakesok]

gotta add ultramel to the wish list now .

[@TheMessyAquariustRising]

Ugh so beautiful, that ultramel

[@bobsloan9930]

What would be cool is if you could turn the dark pattern on a Bamboo to jet black!

[@robertmoore1123]

You need to get a ultramal to breed into a some of your females . Could be you could get a few high-end stuff to sell . I like the pied-ultramales and pinstripe - ultramal and of course the bamboo... awesome stuff.

[@TheMessyAquariustRising]

Just got my first ball python! Coral glow cinnamon!

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

Nice!

[@LilJumex]

I’d love to see the Calico

[@gavinswinford2023]

WOOT WOOT!

[@SouthWestIron]

Axanthics seem to be very diverse as well.

[@OlWolf1011]

Personally, I like the Ultramel Lesser - looks like those vibrant Banana hatchlings that fade and get all those black-pepper specks in a year or two. If it keeps that color as a mature snake - Woo-hoo! Wish I could find one! None on MM! If you're gonna work some of these "long-distance" projects - hurry up! Time flies past FASTER the older you get - and before ya know it, you realize you'll be gone before you see the ultimate of your project!

[@GameOfMorphs]

Ultramel!

[@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures]

YOU GOT IT

[@daemianbox]

There is always the possibility to start a projects with hets or just one visual male and several incomplete dominant females and make your own hets. I bought a pair of ultramels; a single gene male and an ultramel pastel female. While waiting for the female to be up to age an weight, im breeding the male with a couple females.

[@bobsloan9930]

Imma mix axanthic with calico!

[@MrRondeezzee]

What's good bro

[@57mike571970]

I love ultramel!

[@dylanwickund9109]

You forgot the monarch

[@zephire555]

I would have to say ultra clown is the winner

[@chrisgandy-f3i]

Really debating on getting a female ultramel for my next snake. Beautiful morph! Just not sure if my wallet will agree with me... 🤔😂

[@tracisucharski1185]

I have a beautiful Ultramel female! She's amazing 😍

[@albertwing8820]

just so you know i can always be first
