    Mellow Yellow

    I hatched a faded albino a few years ago....it was an unexpected surprise. I immediately fell in love and I have been working to produce more ever since. I call them mellow yellows.
    Here is a holdback mellow yellow with a little bit of size.


    The cool thing about this girl is that she hatched alongside some reduced pattern high contrast albinos. She has a fairly normal pattern (even though it can be tough to distinguish) while her albino sibs are missing the spots to their pattern.
    Check out her siblings in this thread:
    http://www.ball-pythons.net/forums/s...ad.php?t=76378

    Here is a comparison shot (faded on the left and reduced high contrast albino sib on the right):




    I knew this clutch could contain fadeds but it still amazes me that these animals popped out of the same clutch.

    Thanks everyone.....I really like where there are going too. On a few of my fadeds, the head does gain a lavender wash to it as the animal matures. Some of my mellow yellows are picking up orange tipping and flecking as they mature.....a neat change. It will be neat to see how they all mature and what they will look like as big adults.
