and the female...she is more of a clean white and black. The male is more of a bone color.

Beauties, I love the zigzag on the male. Russ, do you still have your extreme red albino brooksi, you e-mailed a pricture of it as a hatchling, and I would love to see it as an adult.

She will be breeding this year. The first snake I will breed her to is a friends lavender albino brooks and if I can get a second clutch without hurting her I'll breed her to my hypo brooks.

Let me know what you think.

I got them from Steve Little in San Diego. Great guy and produces awesome snakes.
Thanks

That's who I got my High White Reverse Stripe from in 2002.

Steve and I have been friends since 1995 when I met him at his pet store in Mission Valley. He got me started breeding snakes or at least got the fire started. Since then I moved from San Diego but we talk to each other often and have a few snake projects together. Most of my collection came from him (albino nelsons, hypo brooks, some corns, killer Thayers, and some pituophis). The reverse stripe cals are really neat and I look forward to raising them up.

Do you have a picture of the one you got from him?

Thanks,
Russ

And also a pic of one of my Albino High Whites that had more of a stripe. Would have been a nice white snake with a partial black stripe had it not been albino. I did breed them together this year, so we shall see............

Should get some outstanding black and whites, here is my male albino high white.

Here is the male that I produced in 2000 from regular High Whites that I got from Steve Osborn in 1998. I'm producing some that retain their white and some that get a hint of yellow on the top.

New projects every year! LOL
