03' 1.0 San Luis Potosi

You know I am one of those MEX-MEX fans. Nice one Jetzen. When you breeding those things? Next year?

Here is one for other Mexmex fans. It is a pic of 5 of my adult/subadult Mexmex. I have a splitband mexmex female that is a 2004 hatch that was in shed and too small for the pic. Check out the variation. I hope to add brownphase, speckled phase and light/white phase soon.
1.1 Dark phase
1.1 "classic" phase
1.0 Splitband

06' has it's possibilies, lol! and a nice group you have! what does a speckled mex-mex look like?, I don't believe i ever seen one.

A speckled king is just that....speckled with black and red speckles on a gray/silver background. I can email you a pic since the pics I have are not mine to post...
Thanks for the compliment on my colony.
What does your female mate look like for that male?

Please email me the speckled mex-mex pic, thanks, and here's my 03' 0.1 she don't eat as much as her brother so she's a bit smaller.

Jetzen,
That female looks awesome. I like the way her saddles are confined to the dorsum and not down her sides. I see slight split bands in both of them.
Have you noticed that your male is darker/cleaner/brighter than your female?? Out of each of the three phases I have (dark, splitband & classic) the males are all darker/cleaner or brighter in color.
I will find the pics of the speckled Mexmex and get them to you.

He just shed yesterday,LoL! and yes he always was better looking. thanks.

That is great news really. I was asked just the other day if I have noticed that the male Mex-mex's look better than the females.
I never really noticed until I was asked. I think it is interesting that one may be able to tell genders in a mexmex clutch by appearance alone. It has been concurrent with many others I have asked as well as in my colony of mexmex.
Thanks for the info,
John Lassiter
