    Desert females

    Ok so desrert females are pretty much infertile. What about the desert combo females? Do they have the same issues?

    Any female with the desert gene has the same issues. So yes, combos includes.

    Is it true that someone proved out the desert females by letting them grow extra bigger then you'd normally pair a female? Someone said it on another thread when I was looking at getting a girl as a display cuz their coloring is so nice

    I would say no. If anyone had produced from a desert female, it would be all over the reptile community and spread like wildfire. These rumors are why I will never get into the project. Too many people who believe they can "fix" the genetic defect. Which, in most cases, will end up causing more female deaths.

    I just want one for a new living room snake I love how they look but could never afford a male. I like having a living room snake that starts people asking questions then they can go see everything else haha so I was just wondering cuz that would mean I'd have to figure out a different snake
