Nice shot~!
Mine are also growing very nicely.
I find that Joe's hatchlings grow very fast...and their feeding response is just great!
Yesterday when I was feeding the Lavas it go to crazy that it started to chew on side of the tub after eating its meal~~ I guess even the little smell (just rubbed the side when it took the mouse into its mouth and I guess the smell went on it is thought that it was food)
Lovely looking snake!

You sure are taking good care of him.

I agree with that....
Not only are they beautiful snakes, but just imagining what can be done with crossing them with lavs, bloodreds, etc...I can't wait to see the beautiful snakes that come from these crosses. You already proved the difference in crossing with the anery and getting the ice ghost. (A very gorgeous color) I am really excited about trying some for myself. :E

"Ice Lavenders"
I started that project two years ago and we may get an answer to your question in a couple of weeks. The F1's were normal in appearance as you stated, except I got a couple of anerys in the clutch as well. This had nothing to do with the Lava and Lavender genes, the parents I used just happened to be het for anery.
We can speculate as to what the Lava Lav will look like, but we may get surprised. My best guess would be a corn that is somewhere in appearance between current Hypo Lav and an Opal. The Lava Hypo removes more of the black pigment than the Standard Hypo, but less than the Amel Gene. These two genes are combined with the Lavender gene in those morphs.
The Lava’s are very colorful, and are bright shades of orange. The Lavender gene is in the Anery Group, which removes the red pigment, so all of the bright orange that we see in a Lava Corn will be taken away by the Lavender Gene. We will be left with a corn that has very reduced orange/red and black pigments. What amount of pigment will be left and what it will look like, we will hopefully find out in two weeks. The Lava Corns also have a lot of secondary colors that the Lava Hypo and Lavender Genes will not effect, so these colors will be revealed. I suspect the Lava Lavenders will have various amounts of yellow and pink pigments much like the Ice Ghost but be more colorful. It would be sweet if just a little of the lavender color remained as a very light soft pastel lavender color with the added yellow and pink secondary colors. Imagine the black areas on this Ice Ghost if they were replaced with light lavender. (Photo attached) The difference between an Ice Ghost and Lava Lav (“Ice Lavender“) may be the same as the difference between an Anery A and Lavender, but very reduced in shade. This may be what we get, but a hatchling will most likely not show us what the adults will look like and they will vary as much as all other morphs of corns.
