That is one amazing looking snake and that would be awesome Mykee.

oh i know he must be. I have to admit though, i did fall in love with that snake. I have the photo saved on my computer somewhere under "awesome snake pics" or something lol
i may be all fussy about morphs and stuff now, but that is one i will never get over how beautiful it really is.

It's still a pet rock that poops.

Wow that thing is hot. Hopefully it doesn't brown out like other axanthics.

**Aaron_S** · 05-14-12, 08:02 AM

Kyle, it's a different kind of axanthic. It's a red axanthic which is a co-dom/dom trait and to my knowledge they don't brown out as other axanthics. They generally keep a really cool red colour. Corey has done a lot with that mutation.

Shaun, I believe Corey has the only few available in the world, and I highly doubt that any of them are for sale.
To make one, takes some time:
Assuming he starts with a het red axanthic and a genetic stripe, he would breed the two, with a 50% per egg of producing het reds het genetic stripe.
He would then grow them up (three years) and breed them together. He then has a 1/16 shot of hitting the red axanthic genetic stripe.

Wait... if this is a co-dom then how is there a het red ax?

mykee · 05-14-12, 09:07 PM

The single form of any co-dom in technically a het, Corey just took advantage of that.
