CL Het blue eye lucy

I found a craigslist add for a person in seattle who claims to have "het vin russo blue eye lucy." From my understanding there were only a couple of people who actually had these either het or full.
Is this anybody on here?
If i got one of these what would be the best ball to breed to, to try and produce a lucy?
I sent the poster an email so i will keep this updated when i get more info.

I'd ask for his name and references first of all...

To start with, the lucy that Vin Russo produces, "white diamond" is a dark eyed lucy, not a blue eyed lucy.

Up goes the red flag or did you just miss quote?

I know VPI have some available, it's not about the cheapest price, but getting the right animals....

So the homozygous Vin Russo has darker eyes even though they are compatible with the rest of the blue eye complex?

The cheapest to cross it with would be Mojave. I think I heard that is a pretty white cross if a clean white leucistic is what you are going for. Maybe lesser would be a little better for a bit more.

According to the email i recieved back his name is Simon Elliot, and they are supposed to be %100 het. $1000 for a het seems a little high?

Check him out on the BOI :gj:

I thought het Vin Russos made blue-eyd lucies, and that as of now, only the fire made black eyed lucies. I know the het Russo x mojo makes a blue-eyed snake :confused:

The Het Russo is in the Blue Eyed Lucy complex, but it IS in fact a darker eyed snake.

It will cross with a mojo, lesser, butter, or another Het Russo to make a Blue Eyed Lucy.

White Diamonds just have that darker eye, sort of like Super Mojos have a purple hue to their heads.

I think that describes it better then I did... it was late and right before I went to bed when I posted.... LOL

Does $1000 sound like a lot for a het lucy?
