i used to keep and breed melanistic eastern hos,the big, gorgeous black ones.i have been considering getting back into hogs,but i want to try westerns this time around ,as it was a major pain finging toads all the time,and ridiculously hard to switch them over to mice.so,my question is,has anyone ever seen melanistic westerns? if so,does anyone know of a breeder?

No melanistic Westerns yet... I am sure it will pop up in someones collection eventually though...

I think it will be sooner then later.

Hey! That's good to hear! Jeff

i don't mean an unusually dark one,i want jet black,just like my beloved easterns.if the easterns weren't so freaking hard to get reliably eating unscented rodents....
