Actually they are only 50% possible hets. My guess is the het Pied gene is actually being expressed in both the Super Pewter and the Silver Bullet.

For the uneducated, what are those exactly? Pewter Pieds?

These guys are the reason I got my pewters! Still looking for a pied girl I can't live without. :gj:

Chris, the high white animals are indeed Pewter Pieds. The first two are Super Pewter pos het pied and a Silver Bullet pos het pied. Hoping to see even more new pied combos this season. One of my Pewter het Pied girls just ovulated....

How are those hets doing?

They are doing well. Both around 500g or so. Hopefully in a couple years I'll make my first pieds. :)

Brandon, they look great.

Hey, just wondering here..
How come the first two have bands / patches of white if they are just het pieds? Wouldnt they show no visual traits of piebald?

I am flabbergasted at those snakes though, very nice collection & good luck!

Nice! They are doing great then. If you keep feeding them like that they could be ready next season. That is nice to hear.

Matt, they are not even guaranteed hets. I'm hoping the Super proves to be het this season. The parents were Pewter 100% het Pied X Pewter. That only makes them 50% possible hets. The Pied gene has a tendency to make other genes react in different ways. I'm 99.9% positive both of these boys will prove to be het Pied, as well as both of the Sandblasts. Thanks for the compliments. I'm crossing my fingers for other unseen morphs in the next few months.
