An incredible surprise indeed! (babies!)

ProReptiles · 04-01-05, 07:32 PM

...From our female 66% possible HET Albino that was bred with our Double Het Snow male…this pairing just gave us a big beautiful litter of babies tonight!…we're proud to announce that the female possible HET turned out to be an actual HET Albino!...producing Sunglows, Salmons, and Albinos - what an incredible sight!

To our knowledge these are the first "live and kicking" Sunglows ever produced in Canada. (well, boas don't actual "kick" but you know what we mean!)

Good to hear Sean, Congrats!! Hurry and get some pics up!!!

ProReptiles · 04-01-05, 11:29 PM

We will have more info on our site as per pricing and availability. They will of course have to come out of their first shed and take their first and/or second meal before they will be released.

Thanks for looking!

Hey Congrats Sean

"female 66% possible HET Albino that was bred with our Double Het Snow male…"

Was the female also a salmon? or was there 2 fathers?

ProReptiles · 04-02-05, 12:48 PM

Dave, thanks for the comments.

The female Salmon proved out to be a 100% HET for Albino (originated from Bob Clark), and because the male DHS (originated from Jeremy Stones bloodlines) carries the gene for Albino as well as Anery - this is how we ended up with the Sunglows...which makes all the Salmons in this litter possible triple HETS as well....in short one sire to this litter.

CONGRATULATIONS SEAN!!! I am going to have to scrape together some cash and get one of those beauties. One of my Tosa bitches is about to drop a litter (within 24 hours). I guess that I know where the money from the puppy sales will be going. LOL Pat

ProReptiles · 04-02-05, 04:02 PM

Just a quick video I thought I would share, this was shot the night the babies were born...enjoy!<br>

I always had great hope that your ProReptiles would become something great, and thats being confirmed each day!! Your site is excellent also, hope to see more pics of this year's breeding projects ( maybe a little more lavender dwarf retics pics?!?!? hehe!! ). I've just looked at your video listening to Jethro Tull's Black Sunday and it was just wonderful. I just cant wait to get my first clutch to see all those heads poking out... What are the incredebly pale snakes on your pics ( beside the albinos ), pastels??
