a extreme from the man himself Mike Falcon and the mother is a anery that I had produced a few years ago that is het for hypo.
She only laid four eggs as she is a small snake and its her third year but has laid 4,5,and four but the are huge long eggs.
I was very lucky as three out of the four turned out hypo and one is extreme.The other two that are hypo are very nice and light and are both pinners with glowing red eyes.

Is the Anery mother from Mike too and from his Extreme line?
Also, can you post some pics of the extreme with it's hypo clutchmates?

well that sure opens up a can of worms if you can breed an Extreme to a non-Extreme-line hypo and get an Extreme?? ....

Well,I know of a few other extreme's that have been produced by a "non extreme line".Remember that Mikes line is not even exactly know for sure but thought to be from dunhams stock from way way back.
There are probably many many single hets (or gene carrying)animals floating around.My tri extreme is from a triple het breeding and I have heard of a couple others this year from triple hets and there from dunhams triples.
Last year Gary Keesler Produced a killer Tri-color extreme hypo from triple hets so its not exclusive to Mike Falcon even though he is the Man that has really put them on the map and put a ton of work into them.
I have a ghost (nothing special about the ghost either)x triple het clutch hatching right now and it looks like I could have a extreme tri colored hypo coming out.I say could have cause only the head and neck are out and its purple looking and I have hatched lots of hypo tri colors and never one like this.I won't know for several days cause I am leaving town in a couple hours for three days.Its going to kill me.I can see a ghost also.
Anyway,Suprised you didn't go to Daytona Paul.

Paul, didn't you mean you've opened a can of snakes? What you get in Daytona? How was the show? Derek

I would call the other two hypos ultralights but not extremes by any means.The forth is just a tangerine wild type but I had a hard enough time getting these three in the shot.LOL....
I can't wait untill they shed.
