Anyone want to see an Avalanche?

Here's a comparison picture (the top one) so you can see how she's changed in the last 6 months: http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19814
By the way, I got her as a difficult feeder. That's part of the reason she is so small. She eats great for me, though. She just preferred rats over mice!

:-offtopic I have a non-feeder that I just couldn't get going despite all of my tricks. I had never thought of this, so I tried it and it worked. I am so freakin' happy.CornCrazy said:

I am glad to hear that you got her to eat! I rehabilitate quite a few non-feeders. I get a lot of them started on alternate types of rodents (rats, hamsters, etc). Most often, they will switch over to mice as they get older, but some of them simply have different tastes.lefty_mussolini said:

Very interesting. I posted this photo of an Opal, which I suspect may be a Blood, but many people discounted it due to some side pattern. Many Bloods do have some side pattern that are “fractured”. What a perfect description of the side pattern that I found on your link.
This Opal has a totally white belly and an odd pattern. He has been bred to a Motley and Normals were produced. He is not a Striped and I would not say that he is a Banded, so what is causing the plain belly? I guess I need to breed him to a Blood next year and find out for sure. What would be the worst thing I would get, Hets for Opal Bloods? I will not be surprised if I get Bloods het for Opal. I can easily see an Avalanche or Opal Blood getting sent out by mistake from a Het breeding. The diffused pattern is very difficult to pick up on white snakes.
It will be interesting to see how the Avalanche, Opal Bloods and Blizzard Bloods turn out as adults. Sometimes more is not better, but the genes are interesting. I personally prefer the Striped Lavs over the Striped Opals.
