CA T pos Type II anery (snow) produced?

jsschrei May 11, 2011 11:28 PM

Are these compatible and has anyone produced one?

There is really no issue of compatibility here. Both of the genes are recessive. You would need to take a visual T and breed that to a visual Type two anery to make normal appearing double hets for both trait and then breed those normal appearing offspring together to hopefully produce the visual form of both genes.

To my knowledge this has not been done with any boas, but I know of one or more T anery litter that should drop very soon. I am betting this morph is going to be very influential to the direction of boa morphs in the future.

I should have described more what I was asking with "compatible". I didn't mean compatible in the way that Kahl and Sharp albinos are't compatible. I understand the inheritance, but I thought I've read in the past that there were complications in crossing CA Type II anery with columbian albino genes, such as maybe inviable offspring or none being produced in the breedings that have been attempted??? I was wondering if there have been any similar "problems" with crossing a CA T pos with the Type II anery and that's why they have not been produced yet. Seems like the cross would be interesting.

Jeremy Stone would likely be the person to ask. I have a double het T-positive snow male I got from him several years ago (never got a pair) that I bred to my Mayan line/het chocolate-dilute line. I'm hoping to make T-positive snow stripes/chocolates next year. Type-2's have so far only been shown to be "incompatible" with Kahl T-'s thus far, that I know of...Sharp's as blizzards had not been attempted that I know of??? I doubt there's any reason other "blizzards" wouldn't work.

my best friend paul bred a central american type 2 anery to a t pos nic last year and produced dh's. he repeated the breeding this year also. these are the only PURE central american t pos anery 2 double hets that i have heard of, not saying there are not more out there...i am gonna pick up a pair this year, as i cant talk him out of any of the ones he already has!
