Breeding/Egg Production & Care | Forum profile

Thanks Suzy! My eventual plans involve granites & pewters because I am obsessed with gray snakes, so producing really good gray snakes is my hope. I figure since I love gray snakes, if I end up with extras I can't sell, at least they will be lovely to look at when I feed them!

The projects I am considering going with are: Ice morphs, Blizzard morphs, Miami morphs and anery stripes...Are these good morphs to work with? And what kind of morphs do I need to produce each one? Thanks again guys Those are all great projects! For Ice,...

Just remember you need to find homes for all the babies and there could be twenty or more. Breeding is fun, but like puppies and kittens, there's the responsibility that goes with producing more animals. It can be rewarding, but there are also times when things don't go as well. Just things to think about.

From talking to the breeder, she puts in a lay box as as soon as she separates the females who look gravid back into their own tubs. I won't know any due dates, so will be going by the size, behaviour and shape of the females to see if they do get gravid and put lay boxes in whether I do think they are gravid or not. I know this might not work out, if the females aren't bred by April I'll separate them anyway, but I was thinking...

So you want you granites (bloodred and anery), then both parents must have bloodred and anery in their genetics (either visual, or heterozygous). This works for the traits that are governed by simple recessive rules, which is most genes. As an...

We have the pet shop we purchased him from is interested in purchasing them as there is not a large supply here locally !

An Ultramel het Anery would be nice too. 1 / 4 Ultramel 1 / 4 Amel 1 / 4 Ultramel, Anery 1 / 4 Snow

wow what a gorgeous mother, I'm so in love

I'd go for an amel stripe with hets for any combination of blood, lavender, anery- anything! Or an opal stripe or fire stripe or snow stripe. Or even an opal or fire het stripe.
