Hello, I own an adult stillwater hypo bull and a normal adult bull and am hoping to breed this coming year. Was wandering what the offspring might look like? Anybody do this, if so could you post some pictures of them? Thanks for your time, Matt

My suggestion would be "DON'T DO IT" insted get yourself another Still Water Hypo.If you breed a hypo to a normal bull you will have all normal colored bulls that het for hypo.Thereason behind me saying don't do it ,is because the special thing about the Still Water Hypos,is that they are a locality specific morph.Basically put there a pure strain.Do you know the locality of your other bull? So you see it would be better for you and the whole Pituophis world to just get another Still Water Hypo.Your not going to get any hypo's from the first breeding of your snakes anyway.You would have to raise up the young and breed them back to the Hypo, then yoou will get some hypo's but not all.Or you could buy another hypo now and in a shorter amount of time get all baby hypos that are pure blood.Because even if you went the other route,you would not have Still Water Ok.Hypo's because of the other bloodline that you may not know what it is.
