Sunkissed Lavender...shedding!

Well...this little bugger started to take his skin off and I've been waiting everyday now to see the true colors.

Next set of pics is a male -vs- female color differences....or at least that is what I think. There could always be something else working here as well. :awcrap:

And the last pic is a byproduct of the clutch....too bad he wasn't a lavender, sunkissed or that combo! ;)

The colour on those sunkisseds is great.. I like the difference between the two.
And the normal (?) is AMAZING!!! He looks okeetee-ish or something... Can't wait to see what he'll look like in a year or two..
 
Hey Jeff,
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME !!!!................a big congrats on those man.
Any chance of Hypo floating around in there. It looks to me you might have a Sunkissed Lavender and a Hypo Sunkissed Lavender there????

That last one pictured is pretty cool as well and I see what you mean, to bad it wasen't Lavender, Sunkissed or a combo of both. It would have been mind blowing if so !!!

Walter,
:crazy02: BOUT' CORNS !!
 
Those things are SMOKIN'! Jeff. They look very different then what I would picture them to be. Very interesting what the Sunkissed gene does to the other known morphs. There is definitely a huge difference in coloration between the male and female as well. I really like the head marking on the female and the "ring around the color" she has. Great friggen snakes Jeff!

On a side note, I am wondering if you will keep notice, as it sheds and grows, whether the snakes "cheeks" turn white high on the snakes face. The reason I ask is Brent and I have some Sunkissed that exhibit this tendency. Have you seen this in other Sunkissed lines you are working with?
Jay :cool:

Not a very high chance.....out of a good clutch (this one was 19 or 24...don't remember which clutch these came from) and there were NO regular hypos. Sunkissed and odd lavenders but no common hypos that I could tell. I guess it could've have slipped in and only shown itself in the sunkissed but I doubt it. In fact, in all the sunkissed lavender combos I have (all siblings) there has not been a regular hypo so I would say no. There has been some rather light lavenders though....

Haven't noticed that...will have to keep an eye out. Got any photos to show what you mean?
 
Gorgeous snake. Sunkissed looks good on corns. :)

You say byproduct like it's a bad thing. I love that one.
 
Nice by-product! I think normal really shows off cool patterns. The sunkissed lavs are gorgeous!
