Unexpected results

Hrm, I should be able to get belly and eye shots of the adults in a few days. The ultra anery theory sounds like it is very possible. Thanks for all the help, everyone!
 
All I know is that I hope to have YOUR problem when I finally get my corns breeding! Whoo hoo! They all look great! I DID think that the pinkish one was a Powder too... until Robbie (I think) posted about the patterns (but does that really disqualify "Powder" - I'm still quite the newbie)?

CONGRATS on some awesome looking babies! Please keep them so we can see progressions on ALL of them! LOL.
 
I think the apparent lack of hypo in the genetics is what disqualifies it from being a powder. XD
 
Thanks to everyone for your responses! I've been taking a lot of close looks at these babies in different lighting conditions and have determined roughly 2/3 to 3/4 to actually be anery a, the and the others to be anery b, so it does seem as though both parents are anery a het b. The ratio is about the same for amel, so again, both parents are het amel. I am going to wait another shed to make absolutely sure, but I'm pretty sure none of them are hypo, so as some have suggested, the parents must be incompatible hypos. I am quite shocked about this since they both look so much alike. Is there a hypo that would cause one to color up more than the other? I have noticed more yellows and pinks on the male than the female, and thought it was just an individual or gender difference. Now I'm wondering if it's a clue. There will indeed be many breeding trials in the future! Woohoo!

I couldn't mix up the clutches since I only had 2 breeding females this year, and the other was a sunglow mot. I also don't have any breedable animals right now with the charcoal gene, as far as I know. I think I may need to breed a baby back to a parent.

Hum... Do you have plans on breeding your sunglow mot???
 
I currently know squat diddly on snake genetics (catching on a VERY little bit), but regardless, you have some very nice looking babies! I love your blizzard!
 
i've been admiring this thread since it was first posted, definitely some cool results you got! way more exciting when i doscovered my normal male was het for snow, and my anery female het for amel!

your hatchlings are absolutely jaw-droppingly gorgeous though! i really, really like how you can see an outline of white around every single scale! is the scale-outlining a genetic thing? the anerys i hatched out this year definitely did not have that:

Uunfortunately, Tess, my sunglow mot, passed away about a month ago due to complications from breeding. She developed an abscess in her reproductive tract and despite valiant efforts of our vet, she just could not pull through. Luckily I kept back one of her offspring from last year. Regardless, she will be missed. She was a wonderful girl.

Thank you! I think they're cute little buggers, but it's always nice to hear it from others. I have no idea if the outlining thing is genetic or not. Looks pretty cool, though! :)
