first will be three pictures of one of my '06 stripe cream holdbacks. Not the greatest photos but they give you a good idea of her looks

How about two of my '07 cinnamons and a rootbeer sibling.
These were the product of a 50/50 meahllmorum/corn het amel het hypo to one of my cinnamon females

Beautiful snakes. Quick question for you Jimmy. What do you look for when talking about holdback Ghost corns? Is there a certain age when you can tell how a ghost is going to turn out the way you like? I have a certain look I like when it comes to Ghost corns. A perfect example of a ghost that I like would be your female ghost (lacy) Thanks in advance.

Actually this ghost looks a lot like Lacy did at that age, but better. The brown that shows up in the photo isn't really there in real life.
My main criteria in keeping this ghost was pretty easy. I wanted to keep a pair so I just set the two aside that caught my eye.
Not really sure I can pin-point just exactly what it is I was looking for they just caught my eye.
Then I ended up selling the male so I only have that female left.
That's alright...When she gets old enough I'm sure putting her and Jacob together should produce some beauties.

Very Nice Jimmy.
I had a ghost that was very similar to that one, this year. It was going to be my keeper, but I traded it for a vision cage.

I'm not sure which you mean but since it was in response to the stripe cream thread I thought I would post a shot of her father first followed by her mother
