How About A Classic Mex Mex?

Jlassiter Mar 20, 2012 05:48 PM

From the Galvan bros. old Mex Mex line......

I love the red heads these animals have.....And it seems to be reproducible.....Last year's entire clutch had these cool red heads.

Yea...I am on both sides of the fence with lots of kings....
I love locality wild types just as much as morphs....

I like the Mex Mex morphs/phases/looks because our captive stock is mainly from one single locality...El Valle de los Fantasmas.......But we do have some from very nearby Alvarez as well......

Thanks Doug.....These classics are what got me interested in Mex Mex....I still breed a few pairs of these yearly, but with all of the potential never seen before Mex Mex I couldn't help myself with the Granites, Ultra Granites, Hypo-Es, Stripers, Burgundies and Blacks.....lol
