Bands, Bands, Bands

Chico, my banded hypo male, seems to throw a lot of banded babies. I suspected this was coming from his reduced pattern mom, so I bred him back to see what would happen. And, I got more bands. Let me know what you think...

I really like the look of this one.

Here's the nicer of the two hypos:

They almost look enchi. Looks like a nice line of reduced/banded to enhance banded morphs like YB and enchi :gj:.

X 2...

The Orange ones with the Blushing look like Enchis...The Hypo pictured by itself looks like an Enchi too!!!

They are "enchi-ish", but not quite. I think it's the banding that brings enchi to mind, but in some of them, the bands look like they've been poured on.

No enchi in mom or dad. Here are pics freshly taken with my iPhone:

And here's an old photo of Chico (looks like he lightened up quite a bit over time)

First thought was enchi for me too. Mom and dad are awesome!

they look amazing! congrats on a wonderful clutch!

Chico is amazing! :O

I love them!!! It looks like there is something genetic going on for sure!

Diggin it! :gj:

Awesome! I would def put that to an Enchi. To many people making ugly spotted Enchis. That would keep your Enchis smoking hot.

If he ever breeds an enchi, put me on the list for a male and a female!

He is soooo beautiful. Hard to believe he's not a caramel, he sure looks like it to me.

Great minds think alike! I put Chico with a spotless female Enchi earlier this season and have eggs in the incubator that should hatch in less than 2 weeks. I'm eager to see how they look. In his last clutch, all my favorites were males, so I'm hoping for some keeper females.

Let's hope for favorable odds. I'm in line for nice female for myself.

Holy cow those are AWESOME!

wow nice!

I don't like hypo anything but hypo banded, yeah that's sweet :cool:

Interesting....

I like the enchi idea....

I'm thinking clown in a couple years.

Updates, please.

Beautiful, I love the banded pattern.

I might have missed it, but who did you get your original banded animal from? My buddy Kyle produced some wicked looking banded snakes from a female my wife named the Amoeba Ball, and an Enchi. I am sure he will be posting pics some day....but they look similar to yours. We got the original female from BHB at one of the SD Reptile shows. Your ghost is pretty sweet, and looks banded where our project is more reduced. I really like your snakes and great pics. That ghost is very cool....

Thanks! I got Chico from Jay at Chico Reptiles. I ended up buying his mom from him as well. I was told that the mom originated at Exotics by Nature.
