These Guys are just great looking snakes, I hope to get some good Photos of the Girls as soon as I can. I really think that the male you sent me is displaying some Hypo gene in it and I hope to be able to breed it out to prove it soon enough. They are unlike the Nics that I have where they will greedily take the Frozen thawed mice with no tricks needed (waving them around or heating them up) and seem to be growing great!
How big was the female when she gave birth and what was your litter size?
Thanks again

Jim,
You're probably not going to believe me but she's right at six foot maybe a smidge under and around 6 years old. She dropped 27 live no dead or deformed and 4 slugs. And she's pretty ugly. Dark most of the time occasionaly turns pretty and light, nasty temper. Her only redeeming quality other than the large healthy litters is her fiery belly.

If I remember correctly, he was a very pretty male...

He surely did. I'm just not sure where the hypo coloration came from.
