    Some Super Cinnys appear all black, and they are beautiful. Most do brown out after a while though. The babies you see at shows are stunning.

    Haven't seen to many super blacks this year. Quite sad really.

    I think it was last year there were multiple super black clutches where the supers were kinked, or died in egg. ill try to look for the posts.

    We produced 3 super cinny/Black pastels this year. We like the cross between the two the best as it seems to have less issues than a solid black to black or cinny to cinny. One of ours has a small kink, but the other 2 look good. Another issue we have found though is even a small kink that goes un-noticed as a hatchling can become very noticeable as an adult. For this reason we really don't like selling them on-line and prefer in person, that way the buyer can fully check them out and say good to go when they walk away. Not that most kinks are detrimental to the overall health of the animal, our holdback male super cinny/black has a couple of small kinks and he eats and produces waste just fine. Also he produces perfectly healthy cinnamon pastels and black pastels.

    I heard super cinnamon/super black pastels (even black pastel x cinnamon) can also have "duck bills"

    I've never seen one myself though

    I think the all black and all white with black in it looks better then the ones with tan in them.

    I might get there eventually.

    Here is the darkest super chocolate I've hatched so far:

    I was hoping to hit super chocolate mojave this year and that it would be even blacker but I missed. Someone else hatched one and it's very nice looking but not solid black. Maybe in a few years I can get a GHI to add into my Garcia line chocolate project. The GHI mojave is pretty darn dark. Maybe a super GHI mojave would be a nice black ball python?

    No one has brought up the super black head by RDR. Not solid black but pretty impressive.

    They do. My friend hatched out 3 Black Pastel Cinnies. 2 of them were kinked. 1 out of those 2 was fused with a deformed face(mix of duck bill and cleft chin)

    Black enough for me...
    This is my female Bullet. She's around 1100 grams at almost 16 months old and one of my favorite snakes, I love her. I produced her along with another Bullet and a Super Cinny last year, none of them have any issues whatsoever. I don't know what the answer is but definitely not ALL of them end up with defects.

    Google the panda pied if you want to see a duck bill. It's a pretty low-key deformity---I think it's kind of cute, even.

    But I've heard there can be bug eyes with super blacks & super cinnys. Disappointed to hear there's kinks, too.
