a motley cream hatchling

an '08 motley cream

a nice little motley cinnamon

and this little stripe...I originally thought it was a stripe ghost but after shedding I am leaning more towards stripe anery.

All very nice as usual Jimmy. Do you have any pure emorys, such as amel or hypo? I'd love to see some pics of those.

Jimmy, are these normal variations of the albinos? Are they two separate phases, or separate genes involved? They are very nice.

Amy, these two just came from two different het pairings.
same gene..if these were male and female and I was to breed them I would get albinos that would probably range from yellow to orange to anything in between

Kent...unfortunately I couldn't get either of these females to breed and the het female laid five eggs that for some reason went bad after a few days. I held the two albinos out of brumation to fatten them up a little and they just would not breed..period.
So next season these two female will be brumated along with the het female and the pinkish girl I mention above. I'm bound to get something next season.

Your snakes are what make you happy, so more power to you. Besides, they're beautiful.

Purty, purty, purty! Look at the nose pattern on the little motley cinnamon! Very cool!

yeah, I noticed that too.
definitely unique.
I'll probably be keeping it. It will be interesting to watch this one mature.
