Very Nice Roy! It's really too bad you can't love em all. Let me re-phraise that, keep em all. Every day I see something new I'd love to have. I would love to have one of those in my classroom this year. I'm sure that even the most nervouse person around snakes would be drawn to the cage to have a look.
Congrats Roy,
Trevor

Gorgeous hondurans - are these out of that big female you posted a photo of a while back - the really clean one with almost no tipping that declined to use the new moss you got for her!
They are very nice tangerines - Congrats,
mary v.

thanks Gang, and yes Mary they are her babies alright.
By the way, she ended up with 3 eggs stuck in her...The last one
was just pushed out a week ago, almost two months after the official oviposition. No surgery was required...patience is the key sometimes...So
she laid 13 eggs and had 3 stuck...Just imagine a clutch of 16 from a Hondo. That would be close to a record.
Invictus, a few of the eggs didn't make it and they haven't all come out yet, but there will be around 10 babies.
This is my original Hondo line that spawned the vanishing pattern morph and also contributed to Terry Dunhams Hypo project. He recently informed me of this, and claims to have cherry picked some of my animals from my US broker many years ago when I was shipping everything to the USA.
I took a couple years off , but I've been selective breeding Hondos since the mid 80's... I'm up around F4 or 5 now.
This seems to be about as nice as I can make them...Only the Hypo mutants are cleaner and brighter., and I must admit I am blown away by Hypo Hondurans..
I have some of them now too, and will mix the Love Hypo gene with this line.

A clutch of 16 would be incredible - even 10 hatchlings is wonderful. Glad to hear your big girl was able to pass the last of the eggs. She an incredibly nice tangerine.
I will have to get on your waiting list for some offspring at some point - but I just got a group from Terry, so have spent my hondo $$ for this season. I really like the ones that have even dark and light orange bands - very balanced - and they are the brightest in the group too - must be the males!
thanks for sharing pics

What do really powerful tornados and breeding milks have to do with each other? :| In other words, can you explain this term to me please? I've seen it used elsewhere as well. Does this refer to #generations of selective inbreeding?
