I'm a fan of calling it what it is; an Ultramel Anery.

Me three. I'm fine with just ultramel anery (I'm a fan of calling them what they are as opposed to these trade names; i.e. butter blood over sulphur.).

What's an ultramel anery?? I don't know that I've ever seen one. Is it just a thick black bordered anery?? (pictures, yesthankyouplease) ^_^

He does that because he refuses to use the shortened word "Anery" for Anerythristic. Really, he's still calling them Ultramel Anery in his own way.

Sorry...

Hmm, it just sounds like "Utlra+Mel" would mean a lot of melanin... so a lot of black... I guess I am wrong.. What would a... wait... I'm hi-jacking. I'll make a new thread.

Anyways, if you were going to make a new name for "ultramel anerys" I would suggest "Low Black Anerys"... I know that's horrible... I'm grasping right now, lol.

For it to make a bit more sense to you, you need to understand the relationship between the ultra gene and the amelanistic gene. Those genes are located at the same locus so if you were to breed a snake homozygous for ultra to one homozygous for amel, all of the offspring would get one of each gene, which would make a complete "gene set" called "ultramel". These snakes look basically halfway between an ultra (hypo-type look) and an amel. Now if those ultramels were also homozygous for anery, they are called "ultramel anery", which if you want to look at it from a different point of view...an "ultramel snow" could also be a technically correct name. Calling an ultramel anery a "low black anery" would be the same as calling a caramel a "high yellow normal".

well thanks guys, i guess ultramel anery is the name, which is fine with me bacause i couldnt come up with anything thats why i asked you guys lol. well anyways ill be hatching my first clutch of ultramel anerys this year from a snow x ultramel het anery and i was wondering if their is a lot of variety in appearence between individuals in this morph or if their all about the same.

 

[Nanci]

Would ultra snow be a correct name?

 

[klascorns]

ultra snow in would be one way to say it, but when most people think snow they white snake with red eyes idk... then you have to explain to people why it doesnt and it just becomes a long drawn out discussion and everyone os confused in the end lol.
