So excited for this second season of breeding our corn snakes!
It’s party time at our house, and all four girls have had at least 3-5 successful locks. 2 virgin girls and 2 virgin boys are getting their chance to show us their genes this year:
Luna (back to full recovery weight and ready for year two) was paired with Arctic (diffused amaretto by Chris Nicholas) to test her 66% het lavender, and HiJack to test his super tessera.
Goldie (amber stripe 66% het lavender) was paired with Arctic (diffused amaretto) to test her lavender het, too, and they should produce some lovely ambers and amarettos with 100% het stripe, diffused. Goldie was also paired with Smokey (diffused sunkissed motley ghost), to hopefully prove his pos hets caramel and stripe. Their babies will be het anery, SK.
Sunny (hypo SK snow) was paired with Speck (Super RF motley-stripe SK ghost). They’ll have RF hypo sunkissed ghosts (and snows if Speck’s het amel works out). All the babies will be het motley or stripe.
Finally, Starla (tessera diffused ghost) was paired with Smokey (motley SK diffused ghost). They’ll produce some cool diffused ghosts with possible pied and 50/50 tessera. All the babies will be het sunkissed and motley.
We’ll be producing a lot of ghosts again this year (if all goes well), but since Arctic was the starter and finisher for two of our het lavender girls, hopefully we’ll have some fun lavender, caramel, and hypo variety mixed in.
