I had asked a question about genetics the other day, thanks again for all that answered. Paul, you answered with a type of snake you would like to see, a ruby eyed yellow Cal king, how would i achieve those colors, the type you were talking about intrigued me, thanks ahead of time

The ruby-eyed, high yellow that I was thinking of would be a coastal phase Cal king (chocolate and pale yellow bands) selected for extra-strong yellow color with the recessive ruby-eyed mutant added in. At one time Mark Bell was selling high yellows, but I don't know what their status is now.

I don't think that a ruby-eyed yellow snake would be particularly new and interesting unless the yellow was considerably brighter than any I've seen on a Cal king. There are plenty of albinos around already.
