Re: Who's Breeding Specters?
I have a specter. Planning to breed him to my citrus yellowbelly in hopes of super stripe, but that combo also means I could get more specter. I haven't paired them yet, but planning to go ahead and do it soon. If you are still looking at that point. ...
Re: Who's Breeding Specters?
My specter male is up to size, but isn't taking much interest in the ladies. It's his first year though, and it seems like year two is always more productive with my males. I've got a yellowbelly, a pastel yellowbelly, and a black pewter yellowbelly waiting in the wings for him.
The thing about specters is they are tough to tell apart from normals. There aren't a lot of definite signs to give them away as specters. So my guess is people have been reluctant to breed them for fear of selling normals off as specters and specters off as normals.
I got lucky. The breeder I got Forge from guaranteed that if he wasn't a specter he would either give us a breeding specter from his collection or refund our money.
Deals like that help make the specter less risky, but let's face it. You may lose two years of a snake that doesn't have the right genetic stuff.:confusd:
