Greetings. I am new to this forum although when time permits i sometimes visit other forums as my herp interests are many. I reviewed some of the past entries and found this forum to be herper friendly with the exception of our herper brothers and sisters who have a closed mind and feel a need to vent (no pun intended) their opinions. I was impressed with guys like FRoberts and horridus who give friendly sound advise based on their experience without having an over inflated ego like some of the old timers on other forums.

My question may have already been answered but i did not see it addressed so.....

Has anyone bred 2 sp/ssp who undergo a color morph as they mature? (ie.- L.t. gaigeae and Spalerosophis apriceps). If so, do the hybrids also undergo a color morph and if you breed 2 sp/ssp that are totally different in color(as adults, like in the above example), could you expect the offspring to be mixed in their adult color(some resembling L.t. gaigeae and some resembling S. apriceps). IF anyone has done work with these or similiar species I would be interested in what to expect.

Also in reference to one of the threads below, I would like to take this opportunity to thank gabonica2977 for signing his name to his post. Very thoughtful of you.

cheers, Don
