SRCORNS.COM Hatchling Thread (2015)

My girl from Steve is getting a tiny amount of green but I would love one like the one pictured above! Reminds me of a bubblegum ratsnake.

The last three pictured are ROs. As for the saddles, from what I've witnessed, it seems to be the luck of the draw.. some Reverse Okeetees just develop the green saddles over time. I didn't see any indication of Green saddles until my girl was probably 2 years old or so.

I'm sure Steve will be able to offer more info. ;) :cheers:

Thanks, I really am not sure what is causing some to look green? Be nice if someone could figure it out!
 
So is that last photo of a common color of reverse okeetee (the really bright orange and white one)? Sorry for the questions lol. But I'm just going by what colors I like. Drat, I only wanted one snake for a pet other than the baby one I have now. I gotta make up my mind before yours hatch lolol. Unless I set up another tank...I hate picking just one :laugh:

Yes, I get those in every clutch, however as metioned the borders can turn green without notice. If the time comes and you wanted one I could try and pick out one I think will have the whitest borders.
 
I'm convinced some type of red modifying gene is floating around in my Sunkissed line.

Sunkissed (RedCoat)?

I'd also love to see how those "normal-colored" sunkisseds corns you hatched out last year are looking, whenever you have time, which I'm sure you have so much of this time of year :laugh:

OK, if I can find them. LOL!!

Here is another suspected RedCoat Classic next to typical looking Classics.

Do both the parents look non-redcoat...and are you getting a roughly 1:4 ratio of "redcoat" to normal?

I have a redcoat lava and a sunkissed suspected red factor that are both adults, I'm excited to work with both genes, particularly getting them into lavender morphs. Joe Pierce hatched out a redcoat lava lavender that was just out of this world. I think both red factor and redcoat will make just about anything look better (I wonder what happens when they are both present in the same animal?!?!). Can't wait to see your supreme reverse okeetees!

Those are awesome!
Are you holding some back to do some test breeding?
Is there Lava in that line?

Duxor, here's al SK that Steve produced. I got her Jan 2014.
As a baby, and now.

And the other one is a SK I picked up this year from Jarrett (ph Cinder, Hypo, Terrazzo).

Atually the Sire to this clutch is a Tessera, and he looks RedCoat. The Dam does not look RC.

Yeah a RF RC should look wicked! Good luck with that project!

Thanks, I can't wait to see the SROs (Supreme RO) either :)

Thanks!! I am holding some back yes. There is no Lava in this group, but I have Lava Sunkisseds that go back to this particular line. Here's one I hatched last season that I'm pretty sure is RC.

Could he be red factor? How many off the offspring are red? I guess it can't be distinguished by this breeding alone, because if it's red factor roughly half the offspring should be red (assuming male is het), and with redcoat it would also be 1/2 (assuming the male is homozygous and the female is het).

Here's the suspected red factor sunkissed I acquired from Walter. Her saddles are a little more red than the photo suggests. Hoping to see this coloration in some of her offspring (sorry for hijacking, Steve!).




 
That's a cool looking baby!

I have a pair of outcrossed offspring from a dark line of SK, that a friend of mine (Tara) got from Don. He got them from a guy in FL, Ward Smith.

Another friend of mine (Matt-NW Bloodlines) got a male darkline SK and paired him with a SK BR het Amel Motley.

Here's a pic of the sire, and the babies I picked up, the female first, and then the male.
