Another prove out?

Got this female as a hatchling from a reptile show back in 2019 - I love Mojave and GHI together and bonus, she was possible het hypo!

I picked up this “female” Barnhart Black Pastel Black Head 50% hypo in 2020 and “she” ended up being a he!

Together… they made these! Do I spy hypos?? What is the solid colored one? Can’t wait until they shed out and show their true colors!

That’s a great looking set of noodles!
That grey on does look like a hypo to me given the gene list on the parents…

Have to wait and see how it sheds out and such but blackhead GHI Mojave or blackhead black pastel GHI can both end up being almost solid looking as hatchlings iirc.

Congrats!

Are you sure dad’s not a black pastel mystic (or other BEL?)

On the bright side the one does pretty much look like a Black Pastel Hypo.

Ha, I suppose it’s possible he was misidentified, considering he was supposed to be a female :sweat_smile:

I checked his listing, he was sold as a Barnhart black pastel black head possible red ringer possible het ghost. Looking at photos of black pastel mystics, I can see him fitting that profile.

That is a awesome clutch! I can’t wait to see how they look when shed! Please update, also be easier to try to id after shed too! To me it makes sense if there were 2 bel genes for a solid colored snake, then if it is black pastel, black head or ghi it would make it darker like that, but as @armiyana stated with ghi, Mojave and some other dark morphs like the black pastel or blackhead(both) could really fade out any pattern at all! Killer clutch!:+1:

You definitely got red gene in there! Probably ringer gene as well do to the pushed up pattern on some of these! Look at that dorsal and head color in a lot of these guys! The dad had to be mystic/phantom as well? Like @crypticoils-pythons suggested It’s not Mojave(no color on the lucy head) but definitely another blue eyed complex gene! In fact a couple of the babies look more mystic then Mojave to me. What a super crazy clutch!

Looking at these I’m going to say whatever the BEL gene is, it’s extra not instead of Black Head because 1 and 7 do look black head most likely

I can’t help at all with IDs, but my goodness are those some beautiful babies! :heart_eyes: I think the first two and the last two are my favourites, but they’re all gorgeous. Love all the variety in colour and pattern. Congrats on producing such an amazing clutch!
