I seen them as low as $250.00 on up. You get what you pay for. The nicer one usually cost more. When buying one be sure to check the tongue if it pink it's a Matrix. If not they trying reap you off. That's the only 100% marker for ID them but it doesn't work for albinos.


Shannon sweet looking SSTP.



Shaun your not joking about their feed response. Their strength and speed are insane for something so short and fat. My old Borneo hadn't eat for a few months so i decided to try a live jumbo rat. As soon as it hit the cage floor it was over. He nailed it so hard he knocked the cage he was in off the shelf and reaped the rats head part way off.

It's actually a Borneo, from a marble ghost x normal pairing. Some really neat animals came out of that pairing. Being het for ghost seems to really play with the classic color and pattern Borneos have. I'll post one of the nicer marbles in a minute.

Very nice! The Ghost gene seem to have some really interesting effects on anything it put with. Like Jeff says i believe the Matrix gene along with the Ghost gene have a lot of untapped potential.

Absolutely, the Matrix gene is very underrated, and the goal shouldn't be just the white snake at the end...Ivories are beautiful, but I think the matrix can certainly be improved on and taken in so many directions.

The ghost gene in Borneo's, although being compatible with ultra breit and latte type animals, is a step above. Keith McPeek has taken certain polygenic traits of the ghost gene and improved on them and taken them in so many directions. From blues, tigers, leopards, honeys, and almost completely patternless super ghosts. Ultra breit and latte type animals are beautiful, but people are just starting to tap into their potential by line breeding polygenic traits, whereas Keith was years ahead of the pack with his ghost gene animals. The "tiger" appearance the animal I posted above has down his tail is proof that the ghost gene can still be outcrossed and maintain certain traits, even in a het animal

So very true. The sky is the limited with what can be done with these amazing snakes. I noticed as there become more and more Blood and Short tail morphs we are finally see people take noticed of the magnificent animals.

Re: Bloody Pride! Let's see them.

Chuck,
You have some beautiful looking Bloods. It took me a while but I am posting some shots of my adult female Red Head Brong I picked up this last Fall from Kara at TBC. I call her Madame Rouge! All photos are Kara's and one is a baby shot. Cannot wait to see what kind of offspring she has!
