Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Hey everyone, I've been busy between work, snakes and Christmas. I see the forum's been pretty slow as well. I've still been taking pics whenever I can, just have not been diligent about processing and posting them. I'm now caught up so....whooooooooosh swiiiirrrllllllllllllll glug glug

A few misc ones here and will seperate out the va=rious subjects in following posts....

A group of BCI's breeding, talk about "spooning" look how tha one male motley is "spooning" the female Ghost, his belly to her side...

Ummmm, think you guys have the wrong ends entwined?

I love that contrast and color in the saddles. Reminds me of my male when I first got him but I suspect Mel will color up more then him.

My first impression when I saw this one was it looks very clean which I can't explain. I guess its beautiful and it doesn't really have any odd crescents standing out, any big dorsal pattern going towards the crescents so I guess its clean to me and the color is whoooooping
Bob

Yeah, I can't put it into words, besides the smoking crescents and abnormalities in many of them, There's just a smokey, sultry color to the will bird babies. Ginger is a prime example of that color. Yeah she has great crescents but it's her color that impresses me most!! An intensity that is super hard to capture (or describe for that matter)!!

I may have to get one from that stock some day. It's right up my alley, bright color and hi contrast.

Excellent snake Dave.

Apricot is the pearl with the brightest colors, even more stunning in person, just ask Mike

Thanks for looking and I hope y'all enjoyed!!!!

Apricot and Baroque when you get a chance or is there a better chance I will get Amber without Tim knowing huh??? Definately have to get a pair of those when available. I wonder what an anery pearl with bleach white crescents will look like besides AWESOME Dave the sides of the pearls appear to have the color that would normally occupy the top of the crescent, is my eyes deceiving me cuz that really would look awesome on an anery calico pearl now I'm thinking huh lol and I ghost calico would look cool I think along with an albino calico but I don't think they could make any ugly calico brb anywayshahaha

Dave did you know that Pearl is the name of Mr. Krabs' daughter (sp?) the guy who owns the Krusty Krab not the Chumbucket that's Planton

Your chances are zero, zip, nada and none. I wouldn't be holding my breath if I were you!!!

Yes, the entire side pattern is crescent colored and very fine crescent colors at that!!! I already have plans to introduce the pearls into all my morph projects!!! and I dooooooo mean all!!!! I'm quite tickled about the whole 2.6 thing, that leaves extra females for crossing into each project and by that time I'll have adult males of each for the various projects!!!!! Dang, will need even more baby racks and an even bigger facility!!!! I'm thinking the pearls may very well pay for that all by themselves!!!

Sad as it is, yes I do know Pearl is Mr. Krabs daughter. my kids love that show.

Yeah, I had the pleasure of visiting the Colling household last weekend. I got to see all of the beasts in their shining glory. While this animal is very pretty in Dave's picture. The true beauty isn't really coming across. The animal is simply stunning. It kind of reminds me of the Jaguar carpets.

Thanks for the seal of approval!!! I had a great time showing off much of my collection. And think of it, when you saw her she was pre-shed and was even more stunning in person when those pics were taken!!!!

IMO, this group may very well end up being my BEST acquisition. And if not THE very best, one of the top few!!

I've been telling you. These are are going to to be the best pattern morph and Amber looks great don't get me and the contrast looks great on her but she won't be spitting the blush phase out like the pearls will be. If you don't have a pair of these by the first year available then you are not a true brb lover
Bob

Those first two pictures are great!
