For the last..... i'm the fan of GTP before If i'm right i know that in US had an albino but from yellow baby (ARU) this male is difference

Anyone recommend????? Thanks :snake:

Very pretty! I love how they wrap up on tree limbs and such! So CUte!:gj::gj::gj: three thumbs up!

Who produced this animal? I cant remember who produced the albino chondro here in the states but i think it was greg maxwell. Anyway thanks for sharing.:gj:

Stunning!!!!!:O
:bow:

Thankyou for sharing!

gorgeous critter!

I would LOVE to own that beauty!

I believe it was Damon Salceies that was the first in the world to produce the albino chondro.

Beautiful animal!

Very cool! I don't think I've seen an albino before. Does their color change as they mature like normals?

as cool as it looks, im sorry to be the bad guy here, but i think it could be a fake.

I don't think its fake because I have seen high resolution photos of albino GTP's and they look like that. ;) I believe this year the hets from the pairings in th US are for sale for something like $12,000 each or something like that. lol

connie i guess youre right... as usual...:(

No, I'm usually wrong sir Julian. :P

I love chondros! I wish I had the knowledge(and money) to keep and breed them.

Ahh... ...One day!

I would love to see more adult pictures of them to get a true representation of what they look like as adults. The March '08 Reptiles Mag issue with them on it really sparked my interest that much more!

Beautiful animal!

Thanks for sharing!

Yes Last 5 years ago i saw an Albino at Damon Salceies website but don't see anymore. So this guy is a wild caught. I saw him as he is a baby he look like maroon but in that time i don't have a money to get him. Now he's still yellow ,had red pupils and already producing sperm plug.

" T " my friend he always had an amazing collection like this!!!!!!! :O :bow:

Heres my adult jayapura male!

Not too hard to keep really as long as the husbandry requirements are met! Its a breeze.

A few of mine:

I agree with Judd, they're not too hard to keep. They're less forgiving of husbandry errors, but the husbandry requirements aren't rocket science or anything.

Breeding is another matter. Good breeders have bad seasons with nothing to show for their efforts. Adults don't keep cranking out clutches year after year and don't always live long after breeding. Check out Greg Maxwell's site, look at his collection of blue chondros, check out the bios on each snake and you'll see most of them aren't among the living anymore. And Greg is one of the best.

I haven't bred any yet. My female needs until the 2010 season before I can begin. Based on conversations with successful breeders, my chances for success with just one female are low.

I think any alibno Morelia, is just breathtaking!!!!

so what is the average lifespan of one? without breeding? with breeding?

what are the different variations of adults?

Let´s please focus on this Albino Chondro, because this is really a very, very special animal.
It´s like having a (really) blue or red BP.

Barakujang,

Thank you very much for posting those.

Do you have any other info and/pics or a link to another site where there is more info/pics on this animal ?
Looks like a Biak-type. Do you know where it was collected ?
Are you sure it was a red neonate ? Makes it even more extraordinary to be an albino starting as a red neo

On a side note, you are right about the first one to be bred on the US. It was done by D. Salceies, and the snake´s name is Floyd. Several Albino projects are on course by many well known breeders, but to the best of my knowledge no other albino chondros has hatched yet (if they have, no one realeased the info)

A correction to my post:

In fact, there is another knowed albino, called "Midas" and bred and owned by Trooper Walsh. Midas is an uncle of Floyd

And this Summer two more albinos were hatched from a clutch of Floyd´s parents ( Meraukes ).

So, there are a few out albinos already in the US.

Now, I believe the info is accurate.

I don't know really where he is from but in thailand all GTP had import from wildcaught accept some baby that i've been produce longtime ago. He looking like biak type yes!!! that's very cool and i think this is the reason point i post for you guys ;)

about 15 years life span... breeding your females can be like 10 year. Of course theres exceptions in the animal world. but this is a rough est.

Thank you!


Sorry I didn't mean to take away from a truely incredible animal. I take it this albino is unrealted to other albino strains?

Hello barakujang,
It would be amazing if we could find some information out on this animal, its caused quite a stir here on at the MVF forum, link: http://moreliaviridis.yuku.com/topic/8764...
Is the owner a member on this forum or dose he have a website? is there anyway you can get in touch with him as we would love to find out as much info on this incredible animal as we can?? It would be great if he could maybe join in the thread above and share with the chondro community hes amazing animal. :O

Many Thanks
Stuart

I remb seeing a picture from a show of Midas, asking price: $100,000

One day, one day I will own an albino GTP. That day may be a long way down the line, but one day...

Gorgeous snake.

I agree, this is one gorgeous snake, best looking "biak" locale type I've ever seen!!

I will one day own an albino GTP also, all I need is just one! Working on it here, maybe 08/09 breeding season will be the year!

Hello

I know that is very old. But how does it continue? No project is? Or fake?

very cool snake
