The babies from my male amel and my friends female caramel are pipping as we speak! I can already see the nose of an amel (surprise!), and i know that the amel is het anery A (but not sure what else)---- and i'm wondering what do caramel babies look like?

I hope this gives you an idea of how they look.Brown on grey with a tint of green?

do you have an instant messenger or an email i can send you a pic in? i have a pic of a hatchling, i took it today and i don't know what to make of it - the parents are caramel and amel--?

Male is amel
Female is het anery
If you have an amel hatchling , she is het butter. I think that anery type a is supposed to cover the caramel gene. Not positive how it works.
My amel male is het caramel and poss het snow.
My female is a caramel het amel motley.
My clutch turned out amel,caramel,normal and butters.

i know for a fact the male amel is het for anery A--- because when i bred him to my female ghost i got normals, anerys, amels and snows...
the female caramel is obviously het amel because an amel is hatching from this same clutch.... i guess if this is a caramel then i should probably get at least one butter from a clutch of 17? (or it would be somewhat bad luck if we didn't get even one)

Sorry about that. Male amel is het anery.
For you to get butters , your male amel has to be het caramel.

i've heard and read that caramel might be somehow connected to anery A-- is this true? the other person who posted in this thread brought it up also... is it completely distinct from anery A?

If both Anery A and Caramel are present in the same snake, the Anery A is dominant. Does this happen all the time? I don't know!

Here's what one of my adults looked like as a baby.
Pics of the adults are on my website.

aha! see, your adult looks incredibly similar to the parent caramel we have. the babies also look similar... is it a true caramel gene? we should hopefully get a butter or two from this clutch, as an amel is hatching also. this caramel thing confuses me, from all the things i've heard about being related to anery A, etc. - i've seen pictures of less "caramel" looking snakes being referred to as caramel and REALLY yellow/brown snakes called miami or normals--- so i don't know what to think

This is my male het amel motley
