Snicker Snakes critters

Nanci, that middle snake is amazing. I've never seen one colored like that. Is the picture really accurate? How much will it's coloring change into adulthood? Wow...

These are your snakes from Nanci? You have real beauties. She breeds really unique babies. And the aberrant saddles on the last-pictured Okeetee are amazing. I love that type of patterning. My Okeetee has some aberrant saddles, but nothing like that snake! Thanks for the pictures.

Those are the parents and grand parents (in the case of the Miami pinstripes), all owned by Nanci except Gartersnake (okeetee tessera) of the animals I have in my 1st post above.

The pinstripes will hopefully breed next season, as should the okeetee. She'll be paired with the extreme okeetee tessera from Steve Roylance I posted in the thread with the xanthic stripe from PetSmart. This year was kind of a late, slow year, but next season should be even more fun with a number of purchases and holdbacks coming to size. Gonna need a 2nd or 3rd 120 quart incubator I hope. :crazy01:
 
They look amazing!!!!! I'm behind on the pinstripe project because I sent my keeper to someone as a replacement for her clutch mate who died, mysteriously, (months after the sale) who turned out to have an internal abscess! So glad she did a necropsy...Grandmother, FMM, was test bred to a stripe (Heart Attack) last year to test her for stripe, to prove that the pinstripe effect in these miami motleys isn't really stripe, or influenced by stripe. There were no stripes hatched, and the offspring had pretty much normal motley patterns, except a couple who had a short segment of pinstripe. Apparently it shows up well when both parents are pinstripe. I will probably repeat the El Pollo Loco x Zora breeding next season, so I can replace my keeper.

I remember you briefly mentioning the abcess situation, odd and unfortunate.

I must have missed that cross! Wouldn't have minded a heart attack baby. Being your medical and all, I'd have had to name the baby PE - though those are no joke. Especially since an urgent are thought I was having one myself back in March, and transferred me to an ER. :awcrap:

I'm excited for you to re-pair EPL and Zora. I'm very happy with these 2 from them. I love that El Pavo Loco takes after mom's coloring and Calli takes after dad, funny how it worked opposite like that.
 
I might be able to scrape up a female Heart baby for you ;-) They are mostly quite Miami-ish, 100% het amel cinder stripe.
