    Re: Whirlwind / Spector / Super Stripe Questions!

    Hi Chris,

    I can see some resemblances for sure, but yours seem less pronounced (from pictures anyways). Best of luck, I'd certainly be trying if I were you!

    As for my pair, they are breeding THIS season... I'm really hoping on hitting a YB cross - and hopefully it will be the best looking Super Stripe ever

    Good luck and keep us posted! I'll certainly post pictures if/when the clutch hatches.

    Regards,
    Bristen.

    heh, I'm surprised anybody even remembered this thread!! So here's the scoop... they "bred" in 2009, but the female did not produce anything... even though I wanted to breed them this year, I actually took the year off breeding ball pythons... I still have the animals and the entire clutch that I produced as well (with a Spider cross and a few possible specters)... hopefully I'll get to the bottom of that project this (*EDIT* I meant "next") year, but it won't be this year unless I notice the female building despite not going through cooling...

    Thanks for the interest!
    Bristen.

    Here are a few belly pictures for you Anthony...

    F52 (Original Adult Female)





    F52_07_06 (What I believe to be a Spider cross - male)





    F52_07_04 (male I produced)



    F52_07_02 (female I produced)



    Let me know if those tell you anything!

    PS: I never found your email yet

    Re: Whirlwind / Spector / Super Stripe Questions!

    Very cool project, I'm just now suspecting my girl of possibly being a spectre as well. If not, I really like yellowbellies regardless and I'm getting one anyways, plus I'm a strong believer in nicer normals will make nicer examples of morphs. Gonna prove or bunk both of them in a couple years anyway lol. ~Caylan.S.~

    Re: Whirlwind / Spector / Super Stripe Questions!

    Hey guys, I'm relatively new to this site and ball pythons. I was browsing a pet store about a year ago and found a unique ball python who was labeled a pastel. Her pattern is what caught my eye so I took a closer look at her and noticed her belly markings. I bought her thinking it may be a neat genetic morph. At first I thought it could be a spotnose. I sent these pictures to a friend and he suggested that she might be similar to a spector/whirlwind.

    What do you guys think?





    Thanks, take care.

    Re: Whirlwind / Spector / Super Stripe Questions!

    I'm really no expert, and I'll the people that actually have proven lines chime in... but in my opinion, this one is very black, while mine is more "burgundy-ish"... the babies also having those colors... the bellies on mine are faded while yours is pretty dark... from the very little I know (close to nothing heh!), I'd say it's not the same.... hopefully somebody like Anthony will comment.

    Wish you the best with that project!

    Bristen.

    Re: Whirlwind / Spector / Super Stripe Questions!

    Just to put this out there. My good friend Ted has something that he thought was a fire. He bred them together and got something crazy.... He calls it discos and super discos. I have a feeling that this snake is actually a spector and super spector. Just my own ideas but I have a feeling his discos will end up being spectors and his super discos are super spectors. He has eggs from discos X YB so we should find out this season if this is correct. I have a feeling it will be. Just my two cents. Check out his suff .... www.s-ecto.com Thanks

    Joe
