Hey Drizzt80, Check Out the Snows Now....

[CaptBogart]

They're really coloring up nice, lol....
A little background for those that don't know, these may be either homo or het Lava....

Alyeska, 0.1 '08 Snow homo/het Lava

Okeemo, 1.0 '08 Snow homo/het Lava

Not bad, even with all that yellow, lol.....

 

[Blue Apple Herps]

Wow! Those are VERY colorful!

 

[Caryl]

That *thunk* you just heard was my jaw hitting the keyboard! They're gorgeous! I adore colorful snows and these are quite something special. ( Your photography is grand, also.) Where did you get these gorgeous creatures, O fortunate Captain?

 

[Jenstar]

They are gorgeous. I love snows.

 

[El Jefe]

Nice...what were the parents?

Thanks for the update Joe! They are looking gorgeous. With all that yellow, the pink looks more peach!

I'll see your snows and raise you a couple of sibling Ice:

Those Ice look great! Mine are still pretty dark but they are about a month behind yours, so hopefully they get that great coloration too...

Not that I know of.



However, my Lava Amel het anery bred to my Ice het amel....so if the eggs go well, I should see some 100% homozygous Lava Snows and we'll get to see how they look.

Cool, I was trying to go by signs, so my guess was that the male might be Homo Lava just because he has the jagged saddles and a dark ruby eye, plus he has more color, but males and females look different anyway with the lava gene. The female has the classic uniform pattern, light pink eyes, and light coloration...

These are gorgeous animals. I may have to get in line for a pair of lmaybe-lava snows.
Are you planning test breedings to determine het/homo status?

Some day, but since these are '08's probably not any time soon. They are eating small adult mice already so maybe the male next year if he's interested....

And just WHAT is wrong, exactly, with yellow on snows? :grin01:

They're gorgeous!!

 

[dogsNdragons]

They are all beautiful. I'm jealous!
