Are there any new Honduran morphs out yet?

I've heard rumblings of a calico, is this true?

I guess anything is possible, but I can only recall this specimen that I believe Ric Blair used to own. I think it passed away years ago, and I don't "think" it was bred to ever produce any offspring that were known genetic carriers of this calico trait. Maybe Shannon will chime in here on this because I know that he knows more about the details of this because we talked about this animal several times over the years.

One thing is certain, and that is this was a truly magnificent animal indeed!..

I know of some possible hets floating around, but nothing has been proven as far as I know.

I have a new 1.1 pair of NEON Orange Hybino Hondurans, far lighter than any of my other Hybino's...Shannon Brown and I discussed today at NARB that there must be something else going on in the genetics, maybe another form of Hypo in the mix. We will see next year if they produce anything cool.

Didn't alot of corn morphs popped up from line breeding?

I would also think stuff will eventually pop up in Hondos after generational morph breeding.

Also I hope Hondo breeders won't more down to earth on the selective line bred morphs as we move into the future, i.e. Candy Cane Corns and "Miami". If one of you guys ropes in the VP/pinner gene in your Amels after a few generations and you have the line breeding true. Spice it up the line a little bit call them "Citrus" Hondurans or whatever it will help to garner interest.

Does anyone agree?

....my new line of "citrus" V/P pinners for 2012..

And here is my future "Electra-Tropicana" brand of hybino..

Holy crap those are nice hondurans man!

Thanks for all the responses everyone. I was hoping someone would come forward with a new morph Hopefully soon!

I just got my weekly dose of vitamin C!

SWEET Doug! The colors are outrageous. I'm trying to picture the "citrus" w/ regular black or gray banding.

Beautiful snakes!

Those types of "showy" names go a long way to garnering new interest though.

My Hybino's are a bit lighter than your lightest Orange shade, and completely bi-colored...ULTRA Hybino line.

Thanks for the compliments on the animals you guys. I was being a bit sarcastic about the names I applied to them in the post though..LOL!

I've got a "Ruby-Red Grapefruit" Hondo project in the works for next year too..
