Pied Blood?

$225 for the pair shipped is pretty darn good to me. Go for it girl! They have awesome looking heads and the one has some nice sides. Hurry up!

If I had the money they would be mine already!
 
Well I just sent payment so we'll see what they look like when they arrive! I'm lousy with a camera (odd, I take good pictures of my other pets- but terrible snake pictures, I'll have to start practicing more I guess) but I'll have to post pictures of them when they get here so everyone can judge if they (or at least the male) is indeed a pied-side. I can't wait! :dancer:
 
This is his email to me about them (kinda interesting)

The Bloodreds are among my favorites . They seem to eat more and grow faster than some strains . The
guy I got my breeders from said that piebald showed up in that line from time to time . Even though my breeders aren't piebald , the trait popped up in the 1st generation and I hope to have some F 2's this summer if all goes well .
Anyway..Thanks again , I'll be talking to you soon , Greg

SOOO- I might be getting some pieds for under market price, and hopefully some of their offspring will carry the trait too. I think its a great find! And I've been wanting some bloods anyway...hehe, good excuse!
 
I know I emailed you this info but I figured everyone should be aware as well so there is no confusion. The Bloodred pied sided that is being referred to in the ad is probably a McDonald line. They have been shown to not breed true. In other words, if you breed two phenotypical McDonald pied sideds you might or might not get offspring that are pied sided. In Don Soderbergs line P/S parents yield P/S offspring. The two lines are also incompatible with one another. If you are looking for nice looking bloodred that have some white on their sides, then great. But if you are looking for breeding stock that will produce P/S, stick to Soderberg's lines. I own both lines. The eggs that are in the incubator from the McDonald line will not be sold as P/S, but rather as nice looking bloodreds, no more, no less.

Well if you got that price quoted in the second post on this thread I'm sure you'll be happy even if there were no possibility of producing pied sided! ;) Too bad the ad is gone, perhaps because you bought them? Congrats!

ps- up in Canada, normals in petstores are usually $80 - $100 each. From the way you guys are talking were the snakes you got adults?? If they are or even if they aren't you still would be getting a deal if you were up here in Canada!!!
