Desert Ghost Caramel Albino..many pics

dmasio13 Jul 08, 2012 07:52 PM

I bought a 100% het desert ghost male in 06 from Prehistoric Pets who in turn bought all of their hatchlings from Mark and Kim Bell (Reptile Industries). I bred him to 1 normal girl in 07 which yielded 3 eggs all 3 females. Then I bred him again in 08 to I think 4 normal females and produced 9 more females. So I kept ALL females I produced with the het desert ghost male raised them up but sold my entire collection 3 years ago but managed to get the het desert ghost male and his 13 daughters back about 1 1/2 years ago. So I bred them this year 2 females proved out to be 100% double het desert ghost and caramel albino. I have 2 more clutches in the incubator and 3 more females left to lay. So thats 7 out of the 13 poss het daughters that went this year. Im hoping to prove out on all 13 of the females whether they will be het desert ghost or het caramel albino or both. All in all its been almost a 6 year to the day project before proving out my first female. Again Id like to thank Jared Carr, Jeff Bell and Jay Brewer for their help. This is what hatched

Congrats Damian! Great job working this project. I personally held these snakes right out of the incubator, and I must say, these pic do the desert ghosts NO justice! Beautiful animals!
