Ultra-Lavs?

jyohe Jun 17, 2007 08:22 PM

........Hello.......I bred an amel aztec het lavender to an ultramel het lavender........

I got so far I see an opal and some normal looking ones I think......and lavs that are darker and lighter.....

.......would I get ultr-lavs?.......I assume so as well as just lavs.........

would the lavs all be actually het ultra?......

.......how can I tell ultra lavs from lavs?........color alone?........hhhmmmmm.........sad...lavs are dark and light all by themselves so I actually think it will be hard to tell if they are just lighter colored or ultralavs.....

any thoughts would help..........

.....wonder if I can get $10 for the ultralavs?.......LOL....here in Pa I get zero intrest in ultra or ultramels at all actually.......even if they have a good aztec pattern or not..no matter what price I put on them at shows.......

.........too many eggs....too many hatching at once....I think I can fill all the baby boxes right now....and corns hatch for the next 60 days and then some......balls have filled 2 incubators and are still dropping eggs ........some setting on eggs right now....have to get the third incubator setup soon.......ugh.......and work suxx......having a job just screws up the snake time........

.........have fun

You would not have to worry about telling the difference between ultramel lavs and normal lavs. You wont get any normals. statistically you should get 3/8 ultramels ph lav,3/8 amels ph lav,1/8 lav ultramels,and 1/8 opals. I hope this helps.

.......when is the Chicago show? do you go there?......

.........hhhmmmmmmmm;.........

.......I got like 6 or 8 lavs I think.......and the amel aztec girl laid like 16 more eggs.......I also threw more amel aztecs in with the ulta hypos and ultramel....and other stuff..I have to look....also the lav girl's eggs didn't hatch yet......and I think she was bred to the ultramel.......

,..,,better year than last.........I lost all my opal males and lav males.......I need some lavs to keep.......

.......now IF I can get lucky on a super pastel ghost ball.........a pied, and some bumblebees..........

Know what you mean. I'm having a hard time getting rid of a 3000 gram female ball.....if you can believe that!! Not even trade offers.

jyohe Jun 19, 2007 03:16 PM

LOL

Oh..I believe.........I just took 5 of them to a show 2 weeks ago and had no intrest.one was "oh my God "sized......I even got it out and held it awhile...and actually had a guy say Oh my God to it.......LOL........but didn't ask a price.......

,,,,,,,,,when I sold alot of corns I picked the best stuff to get rid of.....not by choice..just by fecundity........got like $40 , $50 each for prime adult stuff.....just wholesaled them out ........even stuff like bloodred het pewters and cremes het hypo and caramel mot, ambers.etc.............

Pa suxx.........
