I read a post a few months ago about a new morph called a purple axanthics. Does any one have any information on what is going on with these? Who has them? When will they be available? Anything? Thanks in advance.

to me they look similar to axanthic pastels, maybe they are the same thing?

If I remember correctly the post said they were a new line of axanthics. In the pics I saw the babies were a darkish purple and I think that there was an adult pictured that looked simmilar in color to a hatchling normal axanthic but this was months ago so my memory might not be totally acurate.

That post from about 6-8months ago, and if I remember correctly the animals ended up looking like normal axanthics, but the pic post hatch that was tagged onto the post was indeed what I think anyone would call a "Purple Axanthic", but ended up looking as it should after a few sheds.

John,
No, don't remember anything more than the fact that the person said something along the lines of, "...and after a few sheds they turned into just good lookin axanthics".
Hope that helps,
Dan

Lynn and Sprocket Hendricks had it. I don't know if they still do or if they sold it.

Yes ,They still have the purple Axanthic and I sure have enjoyed seeing it grow up !!! As far as I know the mom is gravid again and they are just waiting for her to drop eggs again !!! so hopefully more is on the way !!! U can see this Beautiful snake at the Oklahoma show this weekend and at the San Antonio next weekend !!! I will get Sprocket to get some updated pics of her when he gets back . And Yes I think this is the best line of Axanthics out there . I can`t wait to see crosses with this NEW line .I sure wish I did not get out of this project ....And Sprocket knows I want back in .lol
