As far as im aware, there is at least 3 anery lines in the US. The Sharp, the Seib and one from the guy TC (no its not Tommy Crutchfield, but someone that uses TC as there name on KS, but i cant for the life of me remember there actual name)
As to what Dave said, i agree about the breeding trials, and would guess that only the Sharp line has been completely proven out with the 4 standard breeding trials.
All the aneries seem to look crap as adults, and IMO, the animals seib have look the nicest as babies.
I know that i have 2 lines of aneries that have originated in europe, but neither of them i can say have been truly proven out. One originated in czech republic and one from the UK. For one of my lines, i should be able to do, a visualxnormal, visualxvisual and visualxhet breeding this year. And to get some answers. The other line is still probably 2yrs off.
Given what i have heard from the breeders or other info, i would say that its 110% chance that they are not related to each other, or any of the US lines.
That said, it may take a while to work out if any are compatible, and that all comes down to money. If someone was to have a Sharp anery female, they are not going to waste her on a unproven anery looking male, if they can try and hit on pure Sharp anerys, or DH ghosts.
I do have plans to cross a few of my lines, but not until i have enough spare visual females to do this, and seeing that these arent ball pythons, its going to take a while!!!
As for other lines, both Ben Siegel and Outback Reptiles have had Anery looking animals for sale recently, and i know i was offered an entire litter of US bred anery looking animals a while back, that wernt from any of the 3 main US lines.
IMO anerys look awful, buts its not the look that intrigues me about them (unless of course they kept their birth colour!!!!), but its what they can do in the future. Ghosts, snows, moonglows, anery patternless, calico anery, a pearl anery etc etc etc. Each new colour or morph that is ----- Dave
