This line was found by a mom in her backyard Michigan, she found this female back in the Spring, then found the male about 2 weeks ago.

Wow Scott, another great addition to your garter collection and the morph world. That's a great score, major congrats! Looking forward to seeing what you produce with them and looking forward to possibly working with that line myself in the future, if you will kindly share, for a nominal price, right? lol .

Yeah it's pretty wild that one, let alone 2 are found (adults no less). Wherever one variant is found, there'a a good chance that there's a gene floating around in the population so it is not too surprising that the male popped up. What is surprising is that they made it to adulthood, avoiding predators. Jeff, can't discuss selling the offspring here but think you know the answer.
Mike-are you breeding the albino ring neck this year, what species is it ?

Scott

Good stuff Scott, looks like something tried to get at that female before you got your hands on her! That albino ringneck snake adult I have has similar scars... I guess that's the price an albino snake pays for being albino in the wild?

Good luck with breeding them.
