Another First at Cutting Edge - GHOST

vin russo Jul 16, 2010 03:17 PM

We were lucky enough to get a nice clutch from our Double het for Axanthic & Hypo this year. Fortunately we hit the odds of 1 in 16 and hatched the first ever GHOST Western Hognose. Pictured with it are its siblings ( An Axanthic & Hypo ).

I was hoping a ghost would look something like that.

Was a regular (Lasik/Evans) hypo used?

Congrat's Vin! I have been waiting to see a true ghost ever since
I hatched out my first lavender, because some said it looked like a ghost.And since nobody had a true ghost there nothing to compare
it to. Now we can see the similarities and the differences. But that two are not the same, so now we have a new morhp! Congrat's
again and good luck with it in the in the future.
