Hogs at the Tucson Show

FR Oct 06, 2013 09:59 AM

It was fun and interesting to see more hogs in person.

Lots of condas and albino condas and such things. One vendor had two axanthics which are of interest to me. Some purple phase this and that. I was hoping to find some RED something or another, but did not find any.

One Axanthic looked all the world like a Mexican(good sized adult female) but indeed had western head scalation(a number of azygous scales) The other was really really odd. A western in pattern. No color on the belly just black and white. But it was BROWN. It had brown markings and a tan base color. It was midsized, say 15 inches.

The owner asked me, what do I think about it, hmmmmmmmmmm I said, I do not know enough to think. It had brown. He obtained it as an exanthic. But it was BROWN. Apparently, all exanthics are not lacking both red and yellow. I hope to go back for a little while today and take some pics. Fun time it was.

Sounds a bit like the Anaheim show. Saw lots of nice hogs there. Love to see some pics.

I am going out hoggin(hopefully) at some SCC sites. And my cam is packed away. When I get back, I only took pics of this large Axanthic that looked like a Mexican hog and a Western that was being called a axanthic that I have my doubts about.

As I mentioned, no reds of any kind and lots of condas, but no supercondas.

I really wanted to pic up something, hahahahahahaha, so I bought my son a pair of Albino paradox sand boas(that's what he wanted) Best wishes
