Got Orange???

Ok, so my good buddy and fellow Honduran-fanatic Cranwill kicked my a$$ in the arrberant category this year (couldn't happen to a nicer clown........heh heh ), but check this little one out. The red bands and orange bands are reversed! Well, not really reversed, just different in size, the opposite of what I usually get! Large orange bands and smaller red bands!! Red is overrated anyways!

Funny thing was, I went to check on the eggs at 1am, and this one hatched out. I thought it was a damn hypo!!! (parents are possible het hypos). I ALMOST ran to the phone to call Marc B. ha ha but it was 4am his time, so I just couldn't do it.





Went back to bed, and took this photos this afternoon. The part I like best, is that there is NO black band immediately behind the head (right on the neck). Its just PURE orange!

Yeah, what a bunch of non symmetrical freaks you Western guys are pumping into the gene pool...

Jeff, that thing is killer... I think you can safely call it a "Sockhead Tangerine"

My 04 crop is hatching today, and my female also laid her second clutch this morning.. Most were duds as per usual for the second clutches I always get, but what timing.

Jeff, that is an absolutely amazing looking snake! Cranny's clutch was amazing, but that one is the nicest honduran I've ever seen.

Thansk Ryan. You know, I'm almost starting to like that she's not that arberrant. Wonder what a hypo would add to her? Or albino? Crazy man! I think its safe to say that there won't be any tipping on this snake, LOL!

Roy post some pics brotha! You started this whole deal, so come join the fun man!

Jeff, I'll bet that killer snake you posted above is a male... let me know. I've hatched perfectly clean ones like that, in fact many and ever damn one was always a male

Ps
I'll put up pics of mine when they are all out.
They've just started pipping

Jeff, THAT is one nice looking Hondo. I assume that came out of your spotted line, or is this coming way out of left-field...?

Pretty sweet snakes, especially that reverse one!

Have you ever bred the pair that produced these before?
