A sibling to this male has bred a few females recently. Keep your fingers crossed with us on this one.

Cool! I hatched out a high red phase male this year that has an identical pattern to that one. I'll post a pic of him tomorrow.

are you the same south plain reptiles that found a dead on road albino hognose a few years back? richard evans told me about you and i was wondering if you ever looked for hets in the area?

Yes. I collected a pair wihin 50ft. of where the albino was found dead. Unfortunately the male died in 2005. Last year the female bred and produced 4 eggs. 1 hatched and is doing fine. I will breed him to his mother next year(fingers crossed).Last summer, I bought the original dead hognose. I will post the pics on my website soon and maybe the forum as well. The colors of the deceased male look more like a super red hypo than an albino. The belly is more purple lending me to believe hypo rather than albino.

Thanks for your inquiry.
