SilverQueen Blood red?

bunkerkingkgb May 22, 2012 01:35 PM

I am having a hard time finding much info on this morph combo. Does it go by a different name now? I have the opportunity to pic up one of these locally, seems like a great deal. Any one have any info for me or any pics?

Thanks
Kyle

I can't seem to find much in the way of pics of adult Silver Queen Bloodreds, but here is an old hatchling photo of one of R. Zuchowski's (SerpenCo). This one has great looking diffusion!

I don't know if there is another name for them now as well, but I saw some posts from 2009 still being called "Silver Queen Bloodred".

Photo is Rich's too.........

Well we picked up this little snake. It is really a unique color, kind of a pink grey. Definitely blood red in there with the washed out pattern on the sides and no belly pattern. Nice yearling, eats and handles great!

What do you guys think?

DMong May 24, 2012 04:15 PM

Very nice!

Yes, I forgot to also mention to the other poster that the belly would also be patternless with no checkering if it did indeed also have the homozygous bloodred gene involved in it's genetics. Yours does also have nice diffusion and the odd head patterning I mentioned as well...

It has an all white pattern-less belly. I really really like this snake. Wanna guess where we got it?

DMong May 24, 2012 11:53 PM

I'll take a wild guess and say Petco or Petsmart?..
