A few years ago I purchased a very high contrast anery male and salmon hypo from Jeff Ronne. I bred them together and made hypos het for anery. Last year I bred one of the hypo het females from that litter to my snow boa and produced 2.2 hypos het for anery and albino and 1.2 dhets for snow with no anerys or ghosts produced. This year I bred a sister hypo het female to my adult male ghost. There are 8 possible dominant hypo hets for anery, 1 het for anery and no ghosts or anerys in the litter. I will say that the original male from Jeff looked more like a type 2 than a type 1 anery with no buckskin coloration and very high contrast with a long black tail.
Both my ghost male and the snow male have produced anerys in the past along with ghosts and snows respectively.
Obviously I may just not be getting any anerys by somehow pissing off the genetic odds gods. Alternatively the original male may not have been an anery but I find that very hard to believe and I believe it had produced for Jeff in the past. Another explanation which having looked at all of the animals I favor is that the anerys are not compatible making these hypos het for 2 kinds of anery.
I am thankfull , as always, to have produced another boa litter but I really am not sure what this one really means.
