The salmons in this litter are Salmon DH for type 2 anery (aka type 2 ghost) 50% poss. het for albino (blizzard) these are possible triple hets.

Breeding triple hets together you could have the following 8 phenotypes in one litter - salmons, type 2 anerys, type 2 ghosts, normals, albinos, sunglows, type 2 snows (blizzards) and the triple het combination a boa that expressed all 3 traits at the same time. What that would look like who the hell knows but it will be interesting to find out. I think that is right anyway LOL I will have to bust out the old genetics text books on that one.

The normal colored ones are 100% het for type 2 anery 50% possible het for albino (blizzard)

If these were to prove out you would have 4 phenotypes - normals, albinos, type 2 anerys and type 2 snows ( blizzards)

Litter consisted of 6 salmons 9 normals and no slugs. Best of all these guys are tiny and will stay small mom is only a hair over 4 feet at almost 5 years of age.

Enjoy

I've never seen a blizzard boa, or a type 2 ghost.

Are there gonna be any babies from this litter for sale? I know how much you like genetics, and the triple het possibilities - I'd imagine you'd want to keep many for yourself.

If not.....

Congrats (again)

Thanks everyone I was pretty excited about these little guys.

Jon they are not actually Sears line but have been Searsed due to the close proximity to my Sears line Hogs. Through osmosis they have actually picked up the Searsness.

This is an inside joke between Jon and I. LOL

I will post some pics when they shed out.

Ah yes... the cross-Searsosity has been studied by scientists and has been determined to be an ossmotical phenomenon. I can't wait to Searsify my boids. :D

All joking aside for a minute, it was really great meeting you Dan and all of your animals (Sears included ;)) are excellect examples of what they are!

Maybe I'll see ya in your neck of the woods in the near future ;)
