Pin, LemonBlast and Fire LB ? by jaymiller242

I put the Pinstripe and LemonBlast in the same picture with what I am thinking and hoping is a Fire LemonBlast for comparison. What say the experts on Fire stuff ?

I'm no expert but I say it's got Fire in it. Looks nice. Congrats!

I've seen several Dragon Flys and I'd have to say yours is just a nice Lemon Blast.

That photo from Bob Clark looks more like a Desert Lemon Blast.

Well, I must say along with the other guys comment that whatever you had posted from B/C is a Desert LB or something very much like that. I was really hoping to get someone that was more of a Fire expert to give me a word on it. I have several other LB's and this one stands out More and more as it grows. She is not a huge eater everytime I feed the babies which is why she does not look as plump as the other ones in the picture. Her color gets brighter as she grows so I think she might have that Fire gene in her. Anyways I picked her up on a trade deal from Christian Gonzalez at Pythonidae Empire here in Tucson.

I work for Bob Clark... and I helped him take that photo. I assure you, it is a Fire/Pastel/Pinstripe. Also, I was working for Wilbanks back when they brought in the first fire balls from England. Between both collections I have seen a ridiculous number of fires and fire combos.

Here is an awesome firefly I produced last season. The photo is taken on my WOBP t-shirt.

Let me tell you something Mr Jeff... I absolutley love the picture you posted of the Fire LemonBlast and Only wish I could make a dozen of of those GEM's for my collection... Hope you and everyone else has a great season. Looks like its going to be a later season out here in Arizona. I saw Josh Marki at the gas station yesterday so I chatted with him for a bit nd he said he doesnt have clutches in the incubator yet either so I guess all is not lost yet...lol. Jay

Right on, I hope you know I wasn't trying to be a douche (though I know I'm good at it)...You just asked about something I DO know about. I don't post here a lot but I try to take a quick look around once a week or so. Good luck in producing some Dragon Flys, they are really awesome snakes. I've bred as Spinner and a Lesser Spider to my Super Fly this season so there is a chance I may have one as well!

Sounds like an awesome pairing.. Good luck on that one, really good stuff. I know what you mean about the douche bag thing since I play that card from time to time myself...lol. I do have to say though that for all intents and purposes the picture you posted as so darn clean since I havent seen one of those that I thought you had posted a picture of a Desert combo. Here is one of my recent pick ups. Jay
