Hypomelanistic nelsoni

Burnsy Jan 29, 2007 02:38 PM

Hi,

since I always thought this are Sinaloans, I now have to change the ssp. on them.

I saw the parenst and they keyed themselves and the babies out as L. t. nelsoni.

Anyway, I think this pics show that they are hypomelanistics and not just brown individuals as someone mentioned before.

Hi,

well, since I do not like most of the albino-morphs, I guess I will not be the first with the hybinos.
But the hypo patternless, aberrant, spotted, striped, splotched...
sky is the limit,

Did'nt even think of the pattern possibilities, that really does make me think, striped or aberrant hypo nelsons would look awsome, but I won't know if they'll look as good as normals stripes and aberrants. I guess we'll have to wait a little while to find out.

Who needs the anery when we have the hypoerys! Orange ghosts anyone?

Hi,

go ahead and keep your eyes on Shannon's highsierra site. In 2008 or 2009 I expect them over the pond.
