Taking the Good With the Bad

[ColinWeaver]

This season I paired one of my female silver streaks with a pastel lesser and earlier this week I hatched out 2.0 Lesser Silver Streaks. Nice. I also hatched out 0.1 Lesser Black Pewters. Nice again. The clutch also has pastel lessers and super pastel lessers. Overall, Colin = happy.

One of my other pairings this season was a black pewter x black pewter. I really wanted to make a super super. Didn't work out. The only two super blacks in the clutch had deformities and didn't survive.

Such is being a ball python breeder ...take the good with the bad.

Wow, Sorry for your loss

Sucks about the Super blacks but it should be interesting to see how those Lesser combos color up!

very nice silver streaks there..

sorry for the super super didnt happen. and sorry for the super black. what are their parents?

is it a deadly combo to produce?
cause i plan to breed my silver streak x albino. and expect black pewter & pastel babies which are 100% het albino. then if odds are good.. i wanna do the same thing like you did, the black pewter x black pewter.

Man, even if those Supers had survived WITH the defomities, I would've scooped 'em up cuz they're so damn gorgeous either way.

Beautiful survivors though. Congrats!
