What should the "Beast" be called? Morph name?

I think some where you guys missed some thing I said in the begining. Here let me quote it for you..
I know that not every one is going to agree with me doing this and that's fine. Please do not turn this in to a big argument.

Wikipedia:
"Beating a dead horse" is an idiom that means a particular request or line of conversation is already foreclosed or otherwise resolved, and any attempt to continue it is futile. In British English and Australian English, the phrase is usually expressed as "flogging a dead horse

Leave it as Beast...Heck they grow like such and hatch like such and feed like such...

you get the point.
 
I know I'm a bit late to the party on this one, but as perhaps a more 'layperson' in the world of snakes, Titan appeals to me. I'm not sure I like the more scientific sounding title. I think too many of the general public would mistake it for an actual scientific name, which would create unnecessary confusion.

OK, well those are only used in USA.

And the United Kingdom. And Australia. The hybrid names are the common English-language names for those crosses. There's even weirder ones listed on the hybrid article of Wikipedia

What do you call a lion-tiger cross in Finnish? Or a zebra-horse one? That's genuine interest... do you really just call them Panthera leo X Panthera tigris or Equus grevyi X Equus caballus ? It's certainly technically accurate if you do!

That's one of the things in USA we finnish ppl just don't understand. :rolleyes:

No offence. Don't take it personally. :)

I live in Britain :)
No offense taken - even if I've heard just as many people over here talk about Shi-poos, Labradoodles and Puggles as I have in the 'States.
 
Now as I come to think of it, these babies reminded me exactly of the orange/buff babies once discussed about on another thread here!!! Maybe those ware because of rootbeer background too, and not caramel!

Don't put a label on animals until you exact now what they are !!!!!!!!!!!:devil01:

I wasn't labelling anything! If you'd just take it calm and read EVERY word I've written you'd see that I just said that these finnish corn babies reminded me of the orange/buff babies (as I've seen pictures of both). And I said maybe those were because of rootbeer. I wasn't labelling anything. I wasn't saying that THEY ARE exactly the same and I most definitely wasn't saying THEY ARE caused by rootbeer. There was the pretty little word MAYBE.

So please, dig the peas out of your nose and breath deep. ;)
 
Titian is good. I remember reading somewhere where it said the Black rat was the largest naturally occuring snake in the US.
 
There is a yearling pair of these at a local pet store that I am thinking about getting. It's cool to see how they develope as adults.
 
wee "beasts"

I did this cross to see if i could get possibly results that may help support/dispute the theory that "ultra" and "ultramel" may have come from a rat snake (specifically a "white oak" phase gray) bred to a corn. I didnt use a gray; I have a het amel black rat snake I got from Dwight Good about 8 years ago. I crossed it to my "Tequila Sunrise" snow corn, itself a suspected yellow rat/corn. Well, it didn't really prove much (lol). I can pretty much make the assumption that the amels in each aren't compatible, so the babies are het for the corn amel gene, and possibly het for the rat snake's amelanism. I did get a few with definite faded bellies, which proves nothing...So. a few pics. and to Bekers, since I'm kinda jackin' your thread, if you are pursuing breeding "Beasts" your more than welcome to pick out a few :*)

I like their look. I really like this one pictured. Do you plan on keeping any? I would be interested in a trio to test them out later. PM me. :)
 
Ohhh becky, your beasts are beautiful!!

But I'm glad I'm not the only one to find the name "bestia" slightly....uhhh..illegal sounding
 
Can I pick one? (for Becky):shrugs:
It's not really to test her "beast's" But more to breed to a rootbeer she had/has. You have to have a control group in any and all experiments, right?:sidestep:

I like this one.

Sorry to interrupt but i think i"ve got somthing else,and it has not a rootbeer background and no caramel.My snakes have first the normal sizes.And how they are inheritance ,its shows as dominant and that now for 7 years, to several bloodlines and clours.
But i don't like to make a discoussion about my animals ( I WIL COME BACK ONE THAT AFTER THIS YEARS BREEDING ) but i don't like ( and it happens again ) that they are connecting with hybrids.
