Some updated pics and a bonus.

Just thought I'd post some comparison pics of the Sandblasts.

And I caught these two in the act. Hoping for some new combos.

Pewter Pied X Pewter Pied

I really thought the pied with its head lower was a mojo pied. Beautiful animals!

Those are actually pretty cool..................for Cinnys...:groinkick

...just bustin your balls....:rofl:

beautiful snakes, as always:gj:

also, whats the sandblast? is it a gene, or is there just something weird going on?

If I had to guess, the sandblast is one of Brandon's many unique combos. I suspect it is at least a little bit pewter.

Thx 4 sharin!

Thank you all. The Sandblast is something that has popped up in this project. I'm not exactly sure what is causing it yet but hope to get to the bottom of it this season. I have a Pastel het Pied from the original breeding that is a bit odd as well.

Thanks again.

Great looking snakes, thanks for sharing! Good luck with the pairing, I hope you produce some sweet, silver pieds!

Awesome sandblast! Is there any YB in it?

You have absolutely gorgeous animals!! Congrats on that pairing! I can't wait to see what comes out of that. :gj:

Wow that sandblast is SMOKIN!! I love your pieds too, good luck on the pairing :)

I think like the Urban Camo super pewter, the het pied is causing the differance. Thinking it expresses itself even in the het form to cause the "sandblast" look. Man I wish these were Black Pastel pewters, I would soooooo jump into this project when you let one go. And I don't even like pieds that much.

I wondered the same thing a couple of years ago. I haven't noticed any YBs though. I do thinks it's more than just the pied gene though....but also believe they are both visual hets.

Brandon, you didn't happen to be at the Taylor MI show today did you? I was there and saw a couple of nice pewters at one table and they made me think of yours. But it didn't dawn on me that it could possibly be you so I didn't stop to talk to the guy. It it was you, darn! I missed a chance to meet you! Anyhow, just wondered.... ;)

It almost looks like the Sandblast has some "white out" genes in there.

Kali, it was not me. I was in Alabama on Saturday. Wish you had taken some pics of those snakes. My band will be in Lansing next month though.

I haven't seen the whiteout stuff so I can't say....not to mention the uproar they caused a few months ago. Any pics? I haven't introduced any new blood into this project. My original animals were a pied I produced in 05 and a pewter from Paul Wyble from 06. I should prove some other things with the project this season....hopefully.

Beautiful snakes!

I love that sandblast-stunning!

Thank you all for the kind remarks. I believe these snakes are something different. Good luck to everyone this season.

Man those Sandblast are awesome!!! If I wasn't getting married next month down in the Keys I would have bought one from you..

Amazing I was just watching a video and heard the name sand blast so I Googled it the first link is the reptile report that brought me here and again just amazing I want that sandblast pewter I would trade my own grandma as awesome as she is lol just kidding but imagine that guy trades his own grandmother for a ball python front page lol
