I just don't like the name Plasma (it makes me think "straw yellow blood product" not "purple snake") ... if I'm going to call Lavender Bloodreds anything, it's going to be a colour descriptive like Amethyst ... which also fits the Granite / Pewter / Sulfur sort of geological theme.

And no, the original discoverer of a trait doesn't always get to name it - "Lavender" being a case in point. Rich Zuchowski named the original animals "Mocha" based on their hatchling appearance (often quite brown) ... but it was "Lavender" that stuck.

i always thought that mocha was used to describe one of the two colours of lavender, and that there is still discussions to wether its sex linked or not

Amel het charcoal X Charcoal Hypo (Phantom) =

50% Charcoal het amel and hypo
50% Normal het charcoal, amel and hypo.

In your second generation, you've got the chance of getting normals, blizzards, phantoms, charcoals, amels, hypos, hypo blizzards ... depending on which offspring you chose to breed together.

Thanks First clutch on a medium sized but adequately weighted 3 year old female so expecting a small clutch.. think i'll keep most of the charcoals back for future projects.

Hello what would you get from these?

Mum


Dad

I'm thinking about buying a hatchling from the breeder and wondered what the hatchlings would be?


Heres one of the hatchlings

Thanks Sam x

Hello everyone,

Only just come across this thread and it's really useful,

Here is a list of the corns I own:

Males

Green Blotch Snow
Anerythristic het Pastel Motley

Females

Normal
Amel
Miami

Some of the above are not quite old enough to breed but I'd like to know which snakes to pair up to get the best morphs? It's something that would be really helpful for future breeding.

Unfortunately I don't know any of the hets (apart from the male anery)

Which would be the best pairs?
