I haven't had much time to play with the new camera, but here's an outdoor shot of one of the white phase hatchlings from 04. I can't wait to actually learn how to use the camera. lol.

Nice snake... i hope to own at least one of these soon...

a few questions:

Breeding white to white are all the normal offspring white phase?

when you breed white phase to white phase what is the ratio of axanthics to "normals?"

Thanx

Well, so far, the only breedings to take place have been my original female to an axanthic male. The whites are veriable in the color, but most turn out pretty nice as adults. I think people think these are going to turn out enamel white like B/W cal kings, but they are more of a bone white.....at least the best ones are. I'd call the average animals a cream white color.

As for breeding white to white, this year will be the first. The outcome should be 1/4 axanthics, and 3/4 whites that are 66% het axanthic.

All of the 04's are looking very nice.

Thanks again.

Thanks Tom. I'm sure you could find some space for more. I did last season........around 20 to be exact. lol.

I never recieved any emails from you. Unless they went to my junk mail and I trashed them. Send them again and I'll be on the watch.

Whatever it turns out to be, its a keeper!

Brandon Osborne Mar 29, 2005 12:55 AM

Man, judging by the head color, that's going to be a killer adult. Hopefully the white will come through as it grows. Please keep us updated. Great find!
