This has nothing to do with anything, just thought I'd share --

I just saw a gorgeous (to me) bicolor albino hondo for sale in the classifieds. Three years old, with NO tipping. If only I needed another snake, I'd be tempted! I'm tired of seeing heavy tipping on so many of the hondos for sale -- I want clean snakes like this one!

Yeah, that was a real nice looking amel. I have a few really nice one's here that I haven't even advertised yet. I am waiting on a girl to come by next week because she is already getting about 13 other snakes I have here, and will likely want more when she sees the other's I have that were produced since she put a deposit down on the others last month.

I'm a little discouraged because at least two of my yearlings are already showing tipping. I'll have to go stare at them again to see if all three are. I want clean snakes with no tips!

Yeah, I know what you mean. I have an adult female from a totally different bloodline that has some substantial white tipping. The male however is much cleaner.

The other two amel bloodlines these other bicolored tangerine's are from stayed super clean as adults.

Known "hybinos" would help virtually eliminate the progressive tipping too.

I just went and stared at my yearlings again.

The bicolor albino (possible hybino) doesn't have any noticeable tipping -- yet, at least.

The hypo tangerine has some tipping.

The vanishing "hypo" (I'm skeptical about the hypo part) has a good deal of tipping.

I'll try to get pics this week, so I can whine some more!

You know that's a nice looking honduran for sure, and the one Mr. Mong posted is also outstanding looking, but I have to say, I've never been put off by tipping to much.
You must hate gaigeae.

>>You must hate gaigeae.

I like em fine once they're finished changing.

I like clean colors. Clean black, clean orange, clean whatever. I don't like the muddy stuff!

Thanks Dell!,.

And WOW!, that gaigeae is really transforming nicely!. Now all you have to do is wait for the red rings to fill in like the other's and BAM!...instant bonified Black milk!..LOL!

Excellent brother!

Yeah, if I could get some nice tipped-up 100% authentic micropholis I would be doing cartwheels!..LMAO!
