I produced her last year. I held onto her as part of my blush project, where the crescents are speckled all over the side markings.

Thanks Tim although her (and Lon's) color is not that good, it will be interesting to see what comes from breeding two blush phase together.

That will be pretty cool to see. Hopefully it'll produce some crazy new morph that no one even saw coming

Hey Dave isn't Lilly smaller than Lon and I think we compared weights of them since they were both born around the same time last year. Have you weighed the larger one recently? just wanted to know where my female is so to speak, thanks in advance
Bob

rainbowsrus Oct 14, 2007 10:16 PM

Yeah Lilly (at 345 Grams) is a tad bit smaller than Lon (at 363 Grams) but no real difference between the two. Lilly and Lon are siblings from the same litter.

So, how much does your female weigh?

299.6 Dave but I put it in my birthday post at the bottom but she is always hungry so up the size of prey she goes but I need to start some rat humping desperately and I got my hot spot continuously at 82 and a low of about 77 during the summer but she is on the heat from her birthday feeding last thursday under her hide so that tells me she is going into shed

Thanks again Tim, no matter what hidden genes he does or does not prove out, he's gonna be a keeper. Several of the other siblings have their future keeper status tied to proving out het for stripe or hypo.

Wow his pattern is crazy. It's hard to believe how perfect some of these snake's crescents can be and how wild the aberrant patterns can get in comparison.

Oh no, can't be upstaged by her littermate, Chrissy had to shed as well last night. She is my absolute top pic out of my share of the joint venture outcrossing litter and since I had first pick on the females, also my top pick of all the females. She was THE one female that clearly stood out from the rest!!!












And a few pics with her Bro for comparison....
