I purchased a pair of gorgeous salmontine 50% het sharp albinos from Mario Colvin here locally a couple years back as a little dinking around project. The pair was growing nicely but I wasn't planning on breeding them until this coming 2010 season.
Around December I was going through a cleaning session and threw the male in the female's cage and forgot to put the male back in his cage until the next day. When I opended the cage they were locked up so I left them alone. I decided to leave him in there and they ended up breeding for the next few months on and off. Mind you this salmontine girl is at most 4 1/2 feet long at this point. The salmontine mother to these two is HUGE! I thought NO WAY will this go but the animals will do what they do...
To my surprise she ended up ovulating and producing a healthy (no slugs or pills) litter of gorgeous babies....I am floored she produced at such a small size! I'll post pics once they shed but ended up with a few Sharp albinos (thus proving both salmontine parents are 100% het for Sharp albino!), a few probable super salmontines 66% het Sharp, and some regular salmontine 66% hets....
I'm done for the season with two liters - het x het blood and now this. I have a small collection so I am super happy with these results. Can't wait til next year! Good luck to all with the rest of your season!
Pics to come...woohoo!
