Here are some pictures of a Lesser/Special. I produced this combo in 2007 but did not know what it was until last year when I produced a crystal. My original female looked like a mojave in pattern but not in color. I breed her to a lesser thinking she might be a phantom. The combo produced a white snake with yellow tint. In 2009 I paired one of these yellow tinted white snakes with a mojave and produced a crystal. I also produced the Super Special breeding that snake back to mom.

It looks like my line of special is darker than Tom's line. My line of supers is just amazing with the amount of orange in them. Of course I am biased but I think it is one of the best Supers out there.

I think some of the confusion comes from the snake Brian at BHB produced several years ago with a lesser. The assumption was that he was working with a snake like the Special. Sean at EBN has also produced a crystal looking snake with a lesser. Sean’s "Special" does not look like Tom's or my Special. Both of ours look very similar. I think it can now be stated that they have something different.

Looking at how the mojave produces a purple potion and the lesser makes a white snake with the phantom. I assumed Tom's special would also make a white snake same as mine. With Tom Harbin showing that this year the two lines of Special look to be very similar. Tom's lines produces combos a little lighter.

I have included two pictures one of the NoCo Reptiles line of Super Special and one showing the slight yellow tint of the Lesser/Special with a Lesser/Mojave.
