07 Ruthveni Group

Camby May 16, 2008 06:54 AM

I am not the best photographer in the world, but here you go anyway.

This is a group shot that represents several genetic bloodlines. The different bloodlines represented in these guys guys are WC, WC Red Phase, Memphis Zoo and Vandeventer, plus diferent combinations of each of those. These are all captive bred, there is no wc animals pictured. They were going out in shipping so I snapped a few pics but they didn't want to cooperate so these are as good as I could get.

Very nice looking female. He pattern is text book Ruthveni. Even though it is in the sunlight, the colors are very true to what she looks like in person. It was really hard to part with her

This is a sibling to hte female above. Father is WC Beinville and mom was a Vandeventer. Again, coloration is very indicative to what the animal looks like in person.

you are right, there is a lot of red from that wc line but Tom is partly right, too. Some animals from Terry Vandeventer's bloodline do develop some red as well. What I have seen is a little different, where instead of the whole scale being red, either the base or apex of the scale is 1/2 tipped with red or reddish brown. I will try to get a pic to show what I mean.

good stuff.
