I must be getting old. I always get such a good laugh (not being sarcastic here) when I see the new names that come out from our genetically engineered designer snakes:
half dwarf double het for albino and granite....sounds like a Starbucks drink!
Whatever happened to the good 'ol days of:
Normal burm
Someday I'll get caught up....cute snake though.

>>All 22 eggs hatched, they are half dwarf double het for albino and granite babies.

>>They are the offspring of a dwarf burmese bred to an albino granite female.

>>They seem to have a similiar pattern to the dwarf burms, so it will be interesting to see how much of a reduction in size will be accomplished since they are half dwarfs. We are hoping they will only get to around 10 feet in length.
