Hey Dave, it looks like you've got a lot of BIG girls just waiting to pop at any moment. Thats awesome!!! It also looks like you've got a lot of hypo stuff in these final litters!!!! I'm real excited for you. I still have never even seen a Hypo BRB in real life haha, lame!

I look forward to seeing the results of your Lily X Lon pairing for sure!! These two are the siblings to my Roxxy that just popped out 25

Hey Ike,

yeah, 3/7 are hypo related with two of those being outcrossed hets.

Do you have pics of Roxxy's babies? did any or much blushing in the lateral markings show up? I've archived the 2006 baby pics so am unable to go back and look at Roxxy's baby pic to see if she had that blushing.

Hey Dave,

I tried tracking down the earliest pics I have of Roxxy for you here. These firs two are of her when she was around 4-6 months old in the first couple days of her being in my care. I used to have saved somewhere some pictures you had taken of her after her first couple meals/sheds but I just can't find them.

If you look at her four crescents that are right at the the bend in her body up in the top left corner of this first pic you will see about the bulk of the blush pattern that she had as a baby. I do notice this pattern though in both pics I have posted here of her.

As far as baby pics go, I have actually been getting ready to take pics of each individual baby now since they have all had their first shed and are either on their 2nd, 3rd, or 4th meals respectively. Until then, I did snap a few pics of some of them before they had their first shed, the following pics are those. As you can imagine, they have really colored up nicely since these pics were taken, needless to say I am real happy with these little ones!!!!

Ok, thats all the individual pics I have right now of Roxxy's first litter. Each of the different poses is a different snake from the litter. I did notice that a few of them if you look closely have a slight bit of blushing coming through, but then again I might just be looking so hard for it that I am seeing the slightest bits of blush. Anyway, sorry for the long winded response but it just ended uip being the perfect timing to combine your question with the pre-shed baby pics I took a few weeks ago.

Let me know what you think,

I was looking at your site a few weks ago and going through your breedings. I noticed you had bred dot x mickey, and was thinking dot was dottie. I was really was looking forward to seeing the outcome of that litter. Stupid me i didnt realize there was a dot and a dottie... Anyways you have some really good looking snakes still to drop but im looking forward to minnie's for sure.
