Flame (inferno!) Hypo: there is no black on this snake!

Anery-Ghost Male

Albino: love this thing... it looks like a fat kid on Christmas with this face... lol!

Anery

SNOW: only 4 in existence

Hypo

Anaconda (co-dom)

"Paradox" this snake displays hypo, amel and normal simultaneously!

I heard he had some nice hogs but seeing is believing. The paradox is awsome.

Unknown Mex-Mex Morph: there is no black on this girl... and her babies turn out "hypo-ish" (reduced red... forgot to get a pic)

Rhino Ratsnake:

Patternless Hypo Honduran

Scale-less Lucy Black Rat:

Haha, that scaleless ratsnake looks like a pinky mouse... "You are what you eat"! I got to touch a scaleless Corn at the Anaheim show back in September... They feel exactly like they look like they would.

The patternless Honduran is beautiful!

Can someone explain the genetics of the scaleless trait?

Great looking collection, I'm pretty envious.

1.1 Black Pinesnake
1.1 Hypo Brooksi Kingsnakes
1.0 Albino Argentina Horned "Pacman" Frog

JEEEESUS Z!

Lotsa great stuff. I'm impressed. Didn't know there were scale-less leucistic Tex rats. And the hogs.....Gawwwwd. Super nice. I was actually man-handling Tom's anaconda hogs (that sounded really funy right there, LMAO) a couple White Plains shows ago -- they are just awesome. Thanks for the tour and a lil break from Lampropeltis. Ahemm!!! But it's time to get re-focused....LOL.

All the best....
