don't look if you're sick of cal kings

mikefedzen Mar 02, 2012 02:23 AM

this is another one of my favorite cali kings, she's a 2010 baby from Kerby... I like her mainly because of her ghost-like appearance and the spots she has all over her body.

What's that flashing light?

Here's an adult female high white that's het for albino. Hopefully she'll breed for me this year.

And last but not least my light phase Ghost male chowing down earlier tonight.

I want to see you breed that first one to a ghost. It might actually be a ghost with a different pattern, but that's just a guess. I heard the original ghosts didn't have that crazy Newport pattern and it makes sense because there are no Newports in Carlsbad CA. No kingsnakes have chocolate topped tails in that area, but they do 25 miles north of there. Anyway, that first one and the light ghost are really cool kingsnakes to have. You're lucky.

Cmon man, Cal kings are a dime a dozen. With that in mind, sell me the 1st and 3rd for $50.. lol. I love Cals, they are awesome.

Nice looking Calikings Mike....

That first one does look like a ghost to me......But I'm no caliking expert whatsoever.....lol

Not a Ghost but definitely het for Ghost. When I breed Ghost to other cal kings thus producing hets, most have the "Ghost" head pattern, some more than others. When I breed a Ghost to other cal kings displaying a recessive gene I get a few that look "hypoish" or different than a normal looking cal king.
But I don't think that one is a Ghost. I didn't sell it to him as a Ghost.

Mike definitely got a nice "light" Ghost from me though.

Who could ever get sick of Cal Kings? Especially w/ those beauties. Cool, Mike, looks like you got some interesting breeding projects lined up.
