2016 Pairings and Updates (LONG!)

Hi, all--

Apologies to those who have messaged me during the last few months! I am--at long last--finished with the school work and other projects that had me totally swamped. So, rather than trying to respond individually to so many inquiries, I thought I'd post a list of what I have and hope to have available this summer. I am also planning to sell a number of adults, so for the pairings below, if the breeders are listed in blue, that means I'm considering selling the parent(s) of the clutch. All Sunkissed or het Sunkissed snakes have been proven free of Stargazer unless otherwise noted.

I have family visiting this week, so it will be the middle of next week before I'll be able to respond to picture requests. I also have about 25 yearling holdbacks that I plan to photograph and list for sale.

So, the pairings are listed as Male x Female; # of fertile eggs; approximate due date; expected morphs. I don't decide on prices until I see how sex ratios turn out, so those will come later. Also, I have listed clutches that will produce more interesting morphs first; those that will produce primarily low-end morphs will follow. Anyone interested in hatchlings from the low-end clutches should contact me early, since these will go straight to the wholesaler (except for Stargazer test clutches, of course).

How much are the different Buf combos going to be going for?

It's hard to say until I see how the sex ratios turn out, but is there a particular clutch or Buf combo you're interested in? A Buf RO will probably be less, for instance, than a Banded Amel Buf from the Oak line (which looks like a banded orange Candycane), or a Buf Amel Tessera.

(As a side note, I will stand by what some other Buf breeders are saying, which is that Buf really, really appears to be a co-dom, not a true dominant. Homo Bufs are noticeably browner/oranger than het Bufs.)

"I can't buy any more sna...ohhhh rc lava lavenders..."

Hehe, you may be sold when I'm able to post a few pictures of their pink lavender siblings from last year. . . .
 
Sigh, unless I sell off half the Golden project I won't have room. I'm pairing my hypo lav to cayenne next year anyway so I'll have some similar pink things of my own eventually. Patience is not a virtue I possess though.
 
I'm curious about one of the 16-? clutches, the one that might produce fluorescents. I'm looking for a fluorescent female. Please keep me in mind for that clutch.

I've updated the info on that clutch (now 16-T), and will let you know what hatches out! :)
