Continuing with top six favourite snakes born here in 2012

 # 4 - Super-special Ball python. This is the dominant version of the special gene (Baker line) that when paired with any of the BEL complex (Mojave, het Russo, Phantom, Lesser, Butter, Mystic, etc) produces a form of crystal. As she matures the pink and oranges colours will intensify. 

# 3 - is a CA Hypo Blood boa female. Our blood boas are pure Central American dwarfs, so they stay small (males 3.5 ft and most females around 5 ft) and with no Colombian BCI out-crossing they tend to be a deeper red.

My top 6 favourite snakes from 2012

As its the end of the year, thought I would do a count down of my  top six favourite snakes we produced in 2012.

To start at #6 is the Cinnamon Crystal. He is much darker than a regular crystal and getting better looking as he grows. Plus as far as I know he was the first one produced and probably the only one in the world.

#5 on my list of favourite snakes is the Pastel / Toffee-belly hognose. This is a double gene designer combo that only gets better and brighter with every shed .... these guys just glow with colour ... I'm holding several back as they are too nice to let go.
