    Ivory ghost possibilities
    I have acquired an ivory ghost Male that will be ready for early 2014. Just wondering what combos everybody thinks would be cool. I'm leaning towards a clown combo to produce double hets. I am just looking for ideas.

    Fire YB Ghosts and Enchi YB ghosts.

    Those sound good not sure what they would look like visually but those genes would be quite powerful

    I personally think those combos without ghost look fantastic. I will bet that the ghost gene makes them incredible. Ghost makes everything better in my opinion. ;)

    while on its own i do not really see the point of producing an ivory ghost, for breeding the BP will be totally awesome.

    it puts YB into everything and there are many sweet combos with yellowbelly, and you can now make them all with ghost on top.

    i agree with fire YB ghost and enchi YB ghost; so pick up females like fire het ghost or enchi het ghost and you can get these in your first clutches. or maybe just a female pastel ghost? many choices. even more choices if you DO want to make more ivory ghost combos.

    Ghost clown YB also has merits, ghost clown combos are quite awesome.

    what surprises me is that the ivory ghost actually looks DARKER than the ivory clutchmate.

    They are both ivory visual ghost, the male just has darker purples and broken yellow stripe. Take a look at the picture side by side with just ivory hatchlings. Genetically these are going to be powerhouses, with everything coming out yb 100% het ghost. This line of ghost is not compatible with og stuff or green ghost. Hopefully the few years to come will shed some light. I feel like this combo is ground breaking

    Actually this interests me more than the ivory part, what line of hypo is it or is it a new line?

    It's a different line, I am not too sure how many know about it but it is the $7 ghost.

    Im a huge hypo fan and those are both stunning animals.

    it would be most important to know which lines it is compatible with.

    if its not compatible with orange ghost and green ghost, maybe it is compatible with butterscotch ghost and regular typical standard hypo?

    never heared about $7.

    This is my first animal from this line and as soon as possible I will be trying to figure out what is compatible. I've got a quite knowledgable mentor who has been working on this for a little bit and produced these beauties. They are extremely clean quality animals. The yb's that were produced were insane. I am very excited for the future

    I'm surprised Black Pastel hasn't been mentioned yet.

    You might not get a response. Tim had to get out of the Bally Python business for medical reasons. Mike Rasmey of Deep South Pythons is working with a lot of Tim's animals. You might try contacting him for more information (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Deep-...14356658632336). I have spoken with Tim a number of times and Tim had success mixing his line of Hypo with some existing lines. I also know that some other breeders claimed that Tim's line of Hypo did not mix with their existing stock, so how compatible is his line? Not really known. I do have one animal from Tim that may be het for Hypo, but I have not tried to prove her het for Hypo yet.

    Sorry everyone, just got word of this thread. To respond to everyones question about the compatibility of the $7 hypo. I have had success ( as well as Tim) with crossing the 7$ hypo into the genera "hypo" thats out there. I have held back a pastel ivory ghost that I proved out from the common hypo line and Tim's 7$ hypo (pic is forth coming) he is a looker too. I have not attempted to breed any other Hypo lines that are out there to prove otherwise. This year I will have several breedings going on that will hopefully further prove out the mixing of the common hypo and Tim's line of hypo. Feel free to contact me via facebook a Deep South pythons. Hope this helps with any questions/worries you all had. Its great to know that there is still an interest in Tim's line and I feel privileged to continue with this project.

    :confusd::confusd: So was it successful or have you not attempted any breeding yet :confusd::confusd:

    Pit....I have not attempted to breed to the OG or GG lines. I have bred into the "common" hypo line (as well as Tim) and have had success in crossing the "common" hypo into the 7$ hypo. I will try my best to get you guys some pics on here soon. I have several breedings this year going on to further prove the "common" hypo to the 7$ hypo (again). Things have been busy here, breeding season is in full swing for us and we will be at the Repticon Columbia SC show next weekend.

    Thanks, Mike
