Bloodred Hookup

Here is a pair of Type A anerythristic Bloodreds from Walter Smith. They are hooked up as you can see. He also bred the Anery Motley I held back for him. Thanks

Awesome photo. I'm just curious why is the tail of the one on top shaped like that. I'd love to see the pics of the babies those two.
 
Question

Why do the male anery a bloodred seem to have more pinkish coloring to them? I have a pair of them and my male is so much more pinkish then the female. In the picture it appears that your male also has more pink tone to him. Anyone have any clues?

Thanks
 
Mike,
very nice, hey when you get babies from the anery blood X anery mot let me know..Please! That is one of the things I am working on as well.

When they breed, they do all kinds of weird things with their tails. I am pretty sure the tail isn't actually "shaped" that way. It's just the way the snake has it positioned.
 
Terry is right

its not shaped weirdly but when they breed, the males slowly wave their tales in the air while connected to the female. The males do seem to be pinker than the females with these type A BRd's. I have no idea why. I have seen so much debate about this its not even funny. If I get a female out of the clutch that looks anything like the male, of course she will stay back. Thanks.
 
Pinkinsh hue

Mike,
I've got a pair of those from the guy who Walter got his from (yours). The males do look a lot better than the females. I picked the best of the clutch from the breeder (Brad McDonald) these guys had white sides but as they mature the male is pinkish grey and the female looks like yours.

Still pretty and great contrast.

The pink coloration in males is a "Something" + Anery A thing that seems to be enhanced by hypomelanism.

I've spoken to Don Soderberg about it and he has said that in his Coral (Hypo) Snows, Ghosts, and Bloodred Anery A's the males usually have a bunch of pink whereas the females have little to no pink coloration (aside from the coral snows which always have pink).
