    Het Pieds and Marker Shots, lots of other pics too :)

    So I might have gotten carried away with pictures tonight. I plugged my card into my laptop and it said "upload all 160 pictures?" Good lord....

    So here's some of what I came up with

    Double het pied/albino male



    Het pied female 1



    Het pied female 2



    Trying for a tongue shot, this is where about 100 of the pics came from


    Almost!


    Got it!


    Trying out the "digital macro" on my camera. It's odd, you can't turn on the flash but it somehow adjusts the light on it's own. Who knows.

    Pin, I love their silver eyes!



    Pastel


    Normal


    Some group shots now that my girls are out of quarantine



    My three '10 girls that I should be breeding in two years

    how the heck do you get a snake that is het for 2 genes?! especially those 2 which are so drastically different?
    and how do you tell the difference between naturally blue eyes and the "in shed" blue?
    beautiful snakes nonetheless.

    my current collection
    1.2 kiddos
    1.0 better half
    0.1 mojave ball python (Nyx)
    0.1 Dumerils Boa (Hemera)
    1.0 Eastern Box turtle
    3.4.? rats (? = litter coming any day now)
    0.1 dutch rabbit (Lucy)

    my "future hopefuls"
    0.0.1 pied cockatiel 0.0.1 white bellied caique 0.0.2 guinea pigs

    Breeding a visual pied and visual albino, or any 2 different recessive gene will yield to double het for the trait. Which is in this case, double het pied and albino. Hope this helps.

    As for the eyes, certain morphs have distinguished eye colors. As for pins, they usually have those silvery eyes. A snake in shed appears to have opaque eyes, and gradually becomes milky blue during the progression of the shedding cycle. Until it clears out on the day the old skin will be shed.

    @Steph - I love how your pin turned out to be. Im a sucker for light colored pins. And that one is probably one of the lightest pin Ive seen. And that mojo's blushing, wow! Great selection!

    I'm in love with her eyes! The sliver is so neat. I'll have to get some better lighting in there since my camera won't let me use any flash in that setting.

    A close friend of mine is working on albino pieds and he was nice enough to give me a chance to work on my dream morph! For the het boy his sire and dam would have been a visual albino and a visual pied. The girls on the other hand didn't have an albino parent. The sire was pied and dam was het pied.

    And thank you!

    She is crazy light! I'm extremely happy with her! I wish I could get a good pic of her color, but it's so hard to get the flash light enough without washing her out. She's very cool! I definitely prefer lighter pins as well! And the mojo, she has turned out to be a looker for sure! She'll be fun to play with, but her first project is BELs!

    Beautiful girls you have there. My Pin is a male, but you are right about the silver look to their eyes, it is cool!
