    I am interested to see if you think any of these snakes have something going on, or if they are just a normal, thanks!

    I think the mojave-like dinker is definitely worth playing with.

    I agree that they look like normals but the belly and those amazing flames on the second one should definitely be bred.

    I really like the belly on your first one. Good luck:)

    I would definently breed the second one and probably the first one. They all look good though

    If it were me, I wouldn't see enough in them to warrant the effort and cost that goes into trying to prove out a new trait, and particularly if they did not just come off the plane from Africa.

    Good luck though, it's my honest opinion but there still may be something there of course!

    i agree with this. if they are from africa the only one i would dink is the high blush one.

    The very dark male is crazy looking i wish the pic showed how black he really is. The mojave like female looks very nice im going to look forward to working with them all and see what they make. dinkers are so fun because you never know what you might have.::D

    Re: New Dinkers, something or not?
    if you have a lesser or phatom to breed to the mojave looking one as i wouldnt be surprised if its a phantom or part of the platinum complex. also i would contact outback reptiles as i think the were first to find the black belly as there are only pics of a pastel cross.

    are they african imports or from a breeder?

    Agreed. Even if you breed the Mojave looking one to a Mojave or Lesser and those flames and that blushing came through to the offspring, you would have some amazing looking Mojave's and/or lessers to work with. Maybe even a Pastel YB to increases blushing and flames.

    Good luck with them!

    This is the female that produced Jim's Dinker. The Sire was a Sulfur Mojave.
    Here is a picture of the adult female that laid the eggs, and the dark Mojave I produced in the same clutch as Jim's Dinker. The mojave is a lousy eater, I hope to pair up the mojave and the dark female next year. I bred my Super Sulfur male to her this year...

    I totally agree. The second picture is awesome. Unless I am mistaking does it look a little green?
