Gentilis clutch - did I hit the jackpot?

Dniles Jun 06, 2010 05:41 AM

Well its been a long 55 days but the day has finally come. I bred a double het ghost x double het ghost gentilis and got 3 good eggs. Check out what is coming out.

Do you think that one is a ghost? Its at least a hypo but I think it may be a ghost.

The third animal that has yet to emerge (you can see its nose sticking out) in the middle was sticking its neck out last night and it looks anery to me so we'll be able to compare it to this crazy animal when they emerge. Will take better pictures soon.

let me know what you think.

Hey Dave, the "nutz" have gathered for the annual MT milk conference and we suspect that gentilis is hypo-e.
Or, possibly, the snake wallowed in Vaseline! Nice project and we're looking forward to post-shed pics.....
We'll talk later, Jeff

Jeff - hope you guys are having a good time. I hope to join you guys next year.

I will post pics of all three when they fully emerge. The third is definately anery. Wait until you see the light one next to the anery. It definately has some hypomelanism going on.

that is an awesome little neonate Dave!

I think it is a Hypomelanistic and Hypoerythristic...so what's that called?

Hypo Pumpkin?

What ever you decide to call it...it's great man!

CONGRATS!

I would tend to agree but still an awesome little clutch.

Hey Dave, I thought I'd jump in here before we get to busy to reply again.

Nice job man, great looking clutch. That's a crazy looking photo, one of those gentilis looks like it's been cloned in to a black and white animal.

It must have been fun waiting for them to come out. Congratulations!
