Patternless, no belly check havin', whitish pink thingy! (picture heavy)
Hi Everyone,
I was checking on the first pippies again last night and I was quite amazed at what I found. When this egg first pipped I took a quick look through the slits in the egg and thought it was a Hypo Snow. Once the snake stuck it's head out of the egg I realized this is no Hypo Snow. This snake looks nothing like it's Hypo Snow clutchmates. This was produced from a Ghost het Blizzard pairing. I presume this to be a Snow Phantom/Blizzard Ghost (Amel + Anery + Charcoal + Hypo). If so, we were lucky to hit the 1/16. After the snake emerged from the egg I did a good inspection of him/her. This thing is complete patternless and has no belly checks yet there is no Bloodred in the mix. This is a very odd and striking looking snake. I tried to capture it's true coloration using different lighting but it's not quite right. I will try natural lighting after it sheds. I would appreciate any feedback you might have about this guy/gal. Thanks for looking and I hope you like.
Jay

That is one cool looking snake... I am not even going to hazard a guess on what it could be, though I am really looking forward to seeing pictures of it after it sheds and as it grows, cause I have a feeling that is going to be a keeper.

Very interesting and stunning baby!!! First impression here says hypo blizzard perhaps also homo anery but i think you cant see that in this mix because of the hypo being there..

Well...I had a number of blizzards look farily patternless and I can only imagine if you add hypo and anery A to that it would look really cool and probably take away some color. Maybe? Nice snake in any case...you'll have to post updated photos once it sheds.

That's a beautiful baby, Jay! You should make more of them! If it is a snow/phantom/blizzard/ghost- that is one morph in need of a trade name!! Please don't forget to do a lot of photoshoots of him!

Thanks Jeff. You know I will be taking as many pictures as possible of this guy. With the pairing that I used this snake can only be a Snow Phantom. The parents are Ghosts het Amel, Charcoal. In this clutch I got all three of the other possibilities, Ghosts, Hypo Snows, Platinums and this thing. This snake looks nothing like the Hypo Snows in the clutch therefore this must be a Snow Phantom (Amel + Anery + Charcoal + Hypo). It couldn't be anything else but. I can't wait for it to shed so I can start to see the true coloration. I think this is going to turn out to be a very interesting snake.

Thanks Nanci. I wish I could just pull them out of mid air. But I will have to wait until next year to give it a go again. You know more pictures are coming of this thing. As far as a trade name? Don't get me started ..... lol.

Don't worry, Anery is definitely in the mix regardless of whether it's a Snow or Blizzard combination . . . the parents are both Ghosts.

I don't know why, or even if it's accurate, but that pointy little white nose in the first pic just screams Blizzard the second I saw it. I'm not sure if it's an accurate trait or not, but it seems as if even my 'normal' Blizzards have that dainty pointed nose!

I think you guys nailed it! Congratulations! I'm proud of the fact that they're in your possession now and you hatched one out.

IMO I think it is a hypo blizzard. Even if the calculators tell us it can't happen, mother nature may say other wise. What ever he is, he is very pretty. Congrats!
