My goal is to keep as small a collection as possible, which has not worked out so well. I was so taken by the snow and ghost Zenny produced using the anery gene. I already got a beautiful hypo from Kevin Maxwell to pair with my anery girl next season. Then checking out Will Bird's site I came across this yearling lavendar male, and, well, he's mine now.

Yeah Lavs are really cool and they look so much better in person! Pictures don't really do them justice. I have found that there is quite a variety of strains or lines available too. They can look quite different. Here is one I got from Rainer, which is 50% Sulfur. along side one that I got from Isis which is the lower one and is het for snow.

Here is some intersting info for you regarding the history on the two lavs you have pictured..
You have two different "lines" of albino lav's which originated from two very different sources..
The Isis lav is from Lloyd Lemke stock and the 50% sulfur lav you got from me is from Tim Ricks lavender albino stock. This traces back to the early 90's and i followed it quite closely back then..

Love the Orange Sides!
Lol... man just get yourself back into Floridana! You obviously like um, you buy um, sell um... then buy some more.
Lil Correction though, i didn't produce the Anery line Snows and Ghost... Those were produced by my Buddy Tom Agosta (You should know Tom... from the WP expo, with the Spiders [Eight Legs Plus]).
The High White Anerys, Flames, extreme flames, lavender flames, hypo extreme flames all originate from him.
I'm most impressed with the hi-white Anerys and the "Extreme Flames"
Axanthic line Ghost (super speckled)

Ha! I know, I gotta settle down.
I really have to keep a small collection because I have so much other crap going on. So I want to limit myself to the ones that really get me going: anerys and their ghosts and snows.
I never got to know Tom, but loved his table. So the one you had for sale in the Spring was the high-white? That was incredible. And that's NOT cut in with hypo?
I gotta get a new pic of her because she's grown so much, but here's my anery girl.
