We started with 2.3 of Bob's hets six years ago. Everything that I have ever gotten from Bob has been great. This year, we got a jampea dwarf albino that has a totally different color than any other albino, not to mention the chrome eyeballs, which we plan to work into our super dwarf project this coming breeding season. The super dwarfs we have seem to max out at about 6 feet. We have been feeding them all they want for months, and they only seem to get a little bit thicker. The two year old jampea/albino cross that we have looks like a big rat snake. It is about 5 or 6 feet, and it's totally breedable. We are hoping to make some snakes that stay really small. We are breeding them in shoebox racks. I sold all of my ball pythons to fund this project, and they are taking over the ball python sweaterboxes. There are definitely a lot of neat things to work with. We are hoping that late this year we will have our first dwarf het tigers so we can start an albino dwarf tiger project. Both the tiger and the albino were produced by Bob Clark. On the flipside of that, we are going to try to breed for size also. One of our tiger hets wants to be a gentle giant. She is already at 150 pounds, and we are going to try to breed her to our largest male albino. He is pushing about 100 pounds at this point. We are hoping to get some true giant retics. The disposition in captive retics is amazingly calm. I dealt with Burmese for years, and they don't have anything on our retics. It sure is exciting when you add all these different morphs to the mix. We even have this new morph of patternless retic that we bred this year with a large tiger . Here is a picture of it. We are calling it a titanium retic due to its slate grey color and metallic look. When you start adding lavender phase, purple phase, pastel phase, and white phase, along with the tiger, super-tiger, dwarfs, patternless, and anerytheristic it will be quite exciting in the next few years.
