Just thought we would post a pic of our lavender black rat with her clutch of eggs. Daddy is a snow black ratsnake. The babies should be pretty wild! I'll post pics when they hatch. Hope you enjoy.

Not quite as nice as Dwight's lavenders of the past, but a looker nonetheless.

I wasn't aware there were snow black rats. What do they look like?

Very pretty. What are the genetics behind it?

If the Dad is snow (almost white with pink eyes) and the mother seems to have normal colored eyes (from what I can tell from your picture) for a snake with her coloring, there is a good chance you will get nothing but wild types that are recessive for three traits.
How about some photos when you get some snakes. Best of luck with the clutch. In 70 days, we want to see some photos.
FYI: I have a dozen Black Rat eggs that have been warming for about 19 days now so I will be posting photos of them in about 52 more days. I am keeping my fingers crossed.
