you were thinking of 2011 BRB pairings, who would you pair up and why?

Interested in seeing what other people think/want in babies.

Well, my first question has to be "Is Bam-Bam up to breeding size yet?" Question #2 is "Are any of your female pearls up to breeding size yet?" I'd sure like to see some vibrant, bright pearls, and I'd be willing to bet that his color would go very nicely with the hypo gene as well. For that matter, hypo pearls would be pretty sweet too, so yeah, I'd work toward those goals if it were my choice.

I would work on two projects:

1. breed hypos to the strongest red and brightest orange animals I could, trying to get those "cherry" hypos that I've seen one breeder produce;

2. breed the brightest orange animals with large crescents. Can you tell I'm a fan of bright colors?

My favorite animals are screaming orange with large white crescents. I'm not into most of the morphs -- couldn't care less about anery, or most aberrants, or eclipse, or blush, or any dark rainbows in general. I don't especially care about pearls, either -- I like the eye spots to still have the eyes in them. I wouldn't even want to own a ghost, although it's interesting to see pics of them. What **I** want to have in my snake room is screaming bright colors.

That you know of?? Is this some sort of hint that you think you may have something? Or are you just planning/hoping on stumbling upon the albino gene through line breeding trials?

I honestly believe I do not have any Albino genes but there's always some odd chance right?

Definitely an odd chance!! I'm not sure how odd of a chance that might be, but I'm thinking its in the 1 in a million plus range. Heres to hoping you get lucky one day on the albino quest. I like your positive outlook, thats for sure!!!
