You're at your first year breeding and you find it's really cool ?
You're now at your second year and you're happy you were able to do it again, with more pairs this time ?
You stuck throught the tough times of starting the babies, finding them new home and and not losing too much time and money ? It's your 3rd year ?
Well, it gets better as you go on
This is my 4th season breeding cornsnake (the first year that I'm breeding my own keepers and seying their offsprings hatch) Man, the feeling gets better and better.
Why ? because of the surprise every snake as hidden somewhere.. possible hets.. unknown hets...
Here's the story, sorry it might be long but it's awesome.
I bought a pair of Het lavs for a guy called Chris Lane 2 years ago. (user: clane8).
When I got this pair I wasn't suppose to breed them because the female was too small even for a 3 years old.
2 months after I got them the female layed 8 eggs.. I had left them together overnight the 1st day I got them, because my tubs weren't ready.. She got pregnant.
I asked Chris if he knew of any possible hets they might have. He talked about "maybe" hypo, but a poor chance.
Out of these 8 eggs, I got Lav, anery and regs, no hypos.
The male was an Anery het Lav / Female Reg het lav.
I kept 3 females as keepers..
The year after I bred the same pair together again and had the same results, just more eggs.
This year I bred the Lavender keeper with my "hypo het lav/anery/stripe" male.. figured I'd get some lavs, anery and regs..
She layed 20 some eggs.. but a couple of days into incubation an accident happened, the container fell and many eggs dies.
Yesterday the eggs started to hatch (4 survivors from that ordeal).
But what a surprise..
I have a lavender that looks motley but no white belly, a regular motley-stripe, an hypo.. the 4th one is not completely out at the moment.
This female turned out to have an incredible genetic :cheers: I couldn't ask for more..
These snakes allthought pretty simple to breed, can bring us alot of pleasure, they posses hiden treasures.
Here's an old post from Chris on thir forum, I think he's talking about relatives to my pair or its parents. (pretty interesting)
