FIRST PEEK animal is out!

Denbar Jul 20, 2012 07:14 PM

And I was not disappointed! He definitely appears to be the best one in the batch, but I still haven't divided everybody up yet. Here he is:

Here are the sibs. 10 in all.

Will post more pics after they shed.

A very good looking clutch. These will make for some good surprises when you start breeding your holdbacks.

Denbar Jul 21, 2012 02:19 PM

Thanks Randy. I really appreciate your comments. As I recall you had some pretty sweet tri-colors last year. I can't recall whether they were "extremes" or not. Did you hold back that one?

I had a couple tricolor extremes hatch out last year. I used to breed regular tricolor hypos but it's been a few years ago now. I don't know that I had any tricolors clutches as nice as yours though. That whole clutch is nice. Very clean for tricolors.

Those look great! Are they vanishing patterned?

Disclaimer: I do keep several snakes in pairs, and some in groups. However I realize that things can go wrong, and I have to keep a close eye on those groups, to be sure they are not being adversely affected by these living conditions. Also if one happens to eat it's cagemate, it is 100% my fault, and I know the risks in advance!

What's wrong with using CAUTION?!?!?!
King Snakes! Who can make a better mouse trap?

Thanks Jorge. The mom is definitely VP and the dad has some vanishing influences. Some of the babies are definitely VP, others I would call pin banded, some just thin banded. I have another clutch coming from the same pair. Looking forward to that.

I would call this one Vanishing for sure.
