View Full Version : Yipee Kay Yay!!
Went downstairs to The Room this morn. and saw some wee heads pokin' out of my last clutch of 7. All 7 seven had pipped, so I opened them up a bit to take a look. This is my last clutch of the season, and this is my clutch from a pastel to albino breeding. All seven babies will be 100% het for albino, and half of those seven will be pastels...

Egg #2, #5, #6 and #7 are pastels for sure, and until #4 rotates a bit, it's hard to tell but looks like he may be also. It's really nice when everything works itself out in the end. I am so stoked over this clutch!!

Holy crap man! Glad it worked out in the end for ya! See, who needs silly pastels when you can have snakes that will one day produce PASTEL ALBINOS, eh?
Ken, thing is I truly love pastels and working with them. I think they are THE coolest morph out there, and albinos come in a very close second. Pastels and Albinos, Albinos and Pastels. Funny 'cause even before I bought my first pastel female as a baby from Greg a few years back, I remember mentioning that an albino pastel would look really neat. Now I have the opportunity to make that happen at the end of the 2005/2006 breeding season.

I talked about pairing pastels with albinos and someone, won't menJtioen afny nfames said it wouldn't be worse it.lol I can't wait to see what will happen when you work it out. Are you going to pair up two of the pastels? Super albino pastels????

lol love the subtlety boidkeeper. Congrats mykee I look forward to seeing the out come of this project.
Mr. Subliminal; You never know what you've got until it's out of the egg. At the VERY worst, assuming that nothing really visually stunning brews in those eggs, you've got an albino that throws you 1/2 pastels with every clutch. This coming season, I'll be breeding for pastels, super pastels, het albinos, albinos and normals. It'll be a few years before I produce a super pastel albino. Gotta let my pastel het albino girls (assuming their not all boys) grow up first.

congradulations on your new babies mykee. pastel albinos will be awsome, can't wait to see what you hatch out in the future.
On a completely unrelated note, i jut recieved my first pastel today. I bought him from Jeff Favelle. He is absolutely amazing and i will post pictures as soon as he is settled into his new home.

Yes well it's true what they say, better to stay silent and let people think you're a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Cheers,
Trevor
PS
So you don't remember our phone conversation about this? I'm crushed Jeff. We've ever had two and you can't remember one.lol
Ladies, ladies! Retract the claws. With regards to the albino pastel, it's more a "dinking" project, but with RalphieD, Graziani and Bell all working on it, I would consider myself in good company, no?

I would say so!
Cheers,

PS
Don't call Jeff names, he's sensitive don't ya know.
Trevor, with the way you two argue, if I didn't know any better, I'd say you two were married. As to which one of you is the husband and which one of you is the wife; that's something for you two to figure out in private...
Lol.

Are you homos done? LOL!
Chewie, I never dogged the albino Pastels. I said that we have no idea what they will look like, but me, liking everything pastel and everything albino, I would say it HAS to be cool. It might be tough to see which is which, but if we can tell hybinos from regular albinos, then the pastel albino will be truly awesome. For sure. Mykee might just be the first to do it too! That would be insane! Right up there with Corey's hypo-Pastel and hypo-Super Pastel!

Congrats man, post some more pics when they are outta those shells:)
Trevor: You amuse me with your quips. I'll spare your life.
Jeff: I doubt I'll be the first to do it, Mark Bell has been working with this project for a while now, and I'm honestly expecting him to pop up with a "Pastino" (I called it, double-locked it, no rubber-rasies!) any day now.
As of yet, only two are out of their eggs (they're killin' me!) When they are all out, I'll sex 'em and post pics.

Ha ha, in true MK style....the Pastino!
And Mykee, this further proves the NEED for adult female albinos. Now that they have dropped to reasonable prices, I see most breeders having 10-20 adult female homozygous albinos to make double morphs with. One male Pastel het albino and one spider het albino takes care of 20 female albinos, just like that!
Keep us updated bro! :D

Best of luck Mykee!:thumbsup:
I to believe that something is gonna come out that will be really neat can't wait to see that! Pastels rule.
