This year has definitely been different then our last few seasons as most of our projects are running real late. We hatched a few clutches earlier this year (or were they late ones from last?) and then it was quiet until July/August. That’s when our Orange Ghost clutched hatched and an Enchi and Pied female finally laid their clutches. We have been trying the last few years for Pinstripe Ghosts and this year we finally hit it. Two female Orange Ghost Pinstripes!

These beauties only get better with age! Here is a shot of one after a few sheds.

Our next two clutches wouldn’t hatch for another couple of months but well worth the wait. Pipping a few days apart were the Enchi and Pied eggs. The Enchi had been with a few Co-dom males but mostly a Desert and the Pied female had only been paired with our Black Pastel Het Pied Male. Thankfully, we hit the combos on both clutches.

The Enchi clutch produced this smoking Tiger male. Overall we got; 1. Tiger, 1.1 Enchis and .1 Normal. We did have another Desert clutch in the incubator but they all went bad. We are still waiting on several other morph females that have bred our Desert male so we still have a shot at Desert  X  Calico, Pinstripe, Spider, Pastel and Cinnamon. Right now I am real happy with this stunning boy!

The Pied clutch hit the Triple Whammy, 3 Black Pastel Piebalds and boy they are just awesome looking!

Here is a closeup of the only one with a little color on his tail, my friends at BP Net tell me the faces look like puppy dogs so this guys name is “Spot”. We really got some amazing odds in this clutch with 2.1 Black Pastel Pieds, .1 Pied and 1. Het Pied. This makes up for a real slow season and we couldn’t be more grateful!

Right before these two clutches hatched our Mojave Het Ghost female laid a clutch of eggs. She has been bred exclusively to a Pastel Orange Ghost male so I am hoping my lucky odds are still rolling.

Thanks for stopping by, hope my next post is of some Mojave Pastel Orange Ghosts.

Well I haven’t posted in quite a while. We finished last season with some nice stuff. We hatched a Cinnamon X Butter, some albinos and some beautiful VPI Black Pastel Pewters.

The Albinos and Pewters actually hatched in Jan. 2011

We have had lots of rain lately here in Southern Cali which means we have been pairing lots of snakes. This first pair is an exciting project, it is our Black Pastel Het Pied boy and our big Piebald female.

The next pair is also an exciting combo that I don’t think this has been done yet. Its our little Desert boy and a Calico female.

Here are a few more joining in. First a Fire male and large Pastel female.

And our Pinstripe Het Ghost Boy and a nice big Orange Ghost Female.

We also have a clutch of eggs in the incubator now from our VPI Black Pastel male to our Black Back female. We did this same pairing last year and the Black Pastels came out awesome!

Should be hatching some snakes soon!
