"The guy still has all of them and lives in Utah......."
LOL, if it's who I think it is then the guy you are talking about actually got some of his double hets from me.
In the 90's Shannon gave me the original old Lemke het striped/aberrant male. I had a pair of amels that I bought as adults from somebody at the San Diego show and I used the old male on the amel female to produce one clutch. I sold the clutch of het amel pos het striped/aberrant to a guy in Utah. Shannon also sold him some ruthven's that year, I think they were double hets but they could have been amel het striped/aberrant.
After I produced that one clutch I sold to the guy in Utah I sold the amels to somebody(I forget who) and I kept the old Lemke male. I kept him for a couple/few years and had nothing to breed him with until I got a normal female ruthven's from Ric Blair. At least I think she was normal but she could have been het for striped/aberrant too. I produced a clutch which contained two aberrant males and two normal looking females. I kept those snakes for about a year and then I sold them to Shannon and also gave him back the old Lemke male.
What funny is now you have those snakes John, the old Lemke male and the two aberrant males and two normal looking females.
It's funny because now I am thinking of getting back into ruthveni and the it seems that if I do I will be buying offspring of snakes I used to own. Small world huh? I guess I never should have let them go. All I asked was if they had a name and I'm discovering all this ironic stuff. I am just glad the people who have them now didn't cross them 'cause now I want babies.
