Not the nicest Hypo....but could be one of the strangest...what do you think?

Chris Olson Jun 17, 2005 08:55 AM

With all of this yellow and pink, I'm thinking of using him in a Salmontine project next year....yes, Salmontines....get over it. I'm thinking maybe a ghost project with a line of Anerys that yellow out big time....or maybe breeding him to a Pastel....
Any ideas?


Thanks, Chris O

Chris, first off... screw everyone that bashes projects, you should do whatever the hell you want I'm not a huge fan of the Salmontines, but I never understood why people find it necessary to criticize what others do.

Anyways, enough of my ramblings. Why is that hypo "strange"? Don't most hypos have the color "creep" coming up the sides?! It seems almost all of mine do.... the rest of his coloration is average though, but I do dig that creeping color.

I'd say put him on a "pastel". I really like the stuff Mike @ BasicallyBoas has done with his "Peachy" line of hypos and I think that stems from his Peachy Female that was a HIGH color Pastel?

Thanks,

A nice ugly hypo. And dont take that in a bad way (i know that sounds dumb) My fav hypo looks like that, but its ugly too. They just dont have the popping red that the "nice" ones have. Use it for what ever project you want. I say find a nice yellow bcc and toss them together.

Heres my ugly girl "Disgrace" while in shed. She usualy doesnt have this much red in her:

favorite looks on boas are "ugly!" I remember when central american bci were "ugly," now they are one of the hottest localities because of the T-positive, CA motley, etc......I love 'em all!!!!!
