Sulfur X Lavender Florida king hets

foxturtle Aug 19, 2008 10:12 PM

This isn't a serious project... I just had to breed this male Sulfur to something this year:

Bred him to this female Steve Osborne Lavender:

...and got fifteen eggs. Immediately, 8 were obviously no good. Of the 7 remaining, 3 went bad. Just yesterday they started hatching... First snake out of the egg was horribly kinked, and died shortly thereafter.

These next two hatched perfectly... and appear to be a male/female pair. Both are pre shed:

I'll probably keep these 2. It'll be interesting to see how they turn out.

A third hatched today... a smaller male with thinner bands. I'll get some pictures of him later.

I really like the male! sorry about the rest of your eggs/snakes. I always wonder what cause kink? if anyone can explain?
