Photo 1 is the charcoal male. Handsome lad with some serious iridescence going on.

Photos 2 and 3 are the hypo-blood (poss. het anery) male. Don't let his ho-hum diffusion at this point fool you. He's the spitting image of his Dad when he was the same age. His Dad's name is "Holden" if you want to do a little search progression on him. He actually looks even more promising than his aunt "Hedda" did as a hatchling, and she has turned out amazing.

Photos 4 and 5 are the ghost male (poss. het amel). But don't the head and belly patterns look suspicious? Here's the story. I tried a single breeding session between "Holden" and "Poison", my big anery (het hypo, amel) female. It looked like a no-go. She bred successfully several times with "Gil", a ghost (het amel). No other hatchling in the clutch looks het blood, but this guy sure does. Holden may have sneaked one in there, or maybe despite appearances, Gil or Poison are het blood. Of course, it's possible that the hatchling is not het blood. Gil is my favorite looking ghost I've ever seen, so I think this guy's going to be great looking either way.

The hypo-blood or the ghost? :D

GAHHHHHH. My head asplode! I darn thee to heck, what with that white stripe down the belly of the ghost. (Did I mention that I have a granite project in the works as well?)

But I don't need to do a search on Holden; outside of Vlad (and IIRC, Maria the MBK), he's one of my favorites in your collection.

And what the heck? I can test the possible het anery with the granite hets as well.....and if it weren't for lavenders, bloods/diffused are my favorites....even if there's hypo in them there genes.

So I'll go with the hypo blood.......

Y'see? Ah'm no haituh. http://cornsnakes.com/forums/images/smilies/hehehmn.gif

(And agreed......GREAT iridescence on dat charcoal boy!)

An excellent choice, Monsieur! :D

I should keep and test that ghost myself, but...

I really like that hypo blood. His belly looks pearly. Very cool. :)
