I don't get the super anaconda. Looks like a hoggie with all the interesting pattern removed!

I don't believe there is, although there are melanistic (pure black) populations of eastern hognoses.

you mean youve seen a western in a tr-coloured form(Heterodon)? or youve seen a morph of a tri coloured hog(Lystrophis)?

I am taking a wild guess here, but if you are talking about a tri colour hognose which is very very dark - this is probably not a morph, very often Lystrophis species start off brightly coloured as hatchlings but can go almost black as they mature.

and can easterns be bred with westerns? also can you breed tricouloured to western and eastern as from what i understand there 2 seperate species?

Tricoloureds are a different genus and from Sout America, so no.
Easterns again, I would doubt it, and they are dedicated toad eaters.

i wouldnt rule it out i mean different genus's can be bred...just looks at royals and womas....but i think its highly unlikely

And why would you want to??!
All 3 are great looking snakes, I can't see why anyone would want to interbreed them.
