We just got home from the NARBC show in VA and found this one hatching out. I know the pics are not the best, but this is an Extreme Ghost. I will post better pics when it sheds.

Thanks!

Hi Jon,

The father is a Ghost and the mother is an Extreme Het Anery.

Thanks!

the ghost parent is just a normal ghost or was the ghost from an extreme line?

Good job !

Congrats Joe! Helps make up for that slow show we all had.
I came home to trans-pecos eggs that have STILL not started hatching yet with one gone bad and a newly hatched, very under sized, midget looking tricolor hypo. Everything is still good though because my blender is still working. Haaaaaa. Congrats again. Randy w.

That was worth waiting for. Lets hope the rest of the clutch is as good................

Congrats

That's awesome Joe. Not too many of them around. Congrats. I'll take the next one out of that clutch Ha Ha. Don

If I am not mistaken, that would be the 3rd known ghost extreme. The first one was produced by Mike Falcon, second one was this year by Terry Maheuron, and Joe's is the 3rd one.

Guys, am I correct on these 3 above?

Thanks,

Thanks to all of you for the kind words. This is a pic I posted back in June of the pairing. I could not get the camera in time to get them while they were still hooked up. The male was produced by Kevin Hanley and he was working with Extremes at the time, but I don't know if the male was out of an Extreme line or not. I almost did not breed the female this year. She was 2 years old and was going to wait until next year. My brother Scott of Sweeney's Serpents was visiting and noticed that she was ovulating and suggested that I try breeding her, so thanks Scott!

Thanks!

Hey Dude,

Thanx for the props. After that last show it had to be a good feeling seeing something so cool in the box. After that long drive home I'm surprised you did not ask Kim to check your eyes. I'm waiting for pics on the rest of the clutch..........

Every once and awhile all the effort pays off........

scott

washed out!

HA!

Fantastic stuff....you should give it to Scott, since it was his idea!

Congrats, sir!
