Very impressive. I know Toby and Todd are working on producing some of the meahllmorum variety. I forget which one has the project.

Hi Matt

I think Toby has the project, it was there animals that got me interested in them. I don't have alot of history on these, all I was told was the breeder imported them from the U.S.A which is why I just refer to them as 'generic' emoryi, unlike Toby and Todd whose are locality animals.

We are both working this sub hard, a lot of bad luck, some great possible hets this year. We have 6 locality females between us to try and pull this out. I know a lot of people are interested in getting the albino and chocolate genes into the reverse stripe, but we are holding on for locality and subspecifics for this "morph" at this time. Sue those look great and I can see it won't be long before some new emoryi morphs come out, best of luck!

hey Todd,
This is probably a stupid question but why are they called a reverse stripe?
Are there normal stripe?
Is it because it is more one stripe down the middle as opposed to one on each side like corns?

Hey Jimmy,

Notice how the stripe on Sue's snakes cleaves through the middle of the dorsal blotches? Rather than having a dorsal stripe, it is the absence of pattern, leaving a reverse stripe of the snake's ground color. Totally different from striped guttatus, where the entire pattern is just two stripes. To my knowledge there are no "normal striped" emoryi. I suppose these could just be called Striped emoryi, but then that makes me think of corn morphs.

heheh, yeah, what he said! Sorry, I been away for a while. We are trying like hell to pull this locality morph out, then everyone can have a crack at it with P.e.emoryi. It has taken a long time, and I know others have worked on it, but it still hasn't surfaced. I know of another recently wild caught male yearling from around the area, but not this locale.
