nice pick ups. the hogs are so cool. a few comments tho. the anaconda isnt a great example compared to say brent bumgarders anacondas, super conda is remakable tho. such a nice snake. what did you pay if you dont mind me asking? also the albino is cool! albino condas! amazing. and rad phases are great examples also. redphase albinos are some of my favorite hogs. again i do have to say i would have tried to find a more reduced patterned red phase anaconda. overall nice pick up.

Thanks for the feedback. I do respectfully disagree though. I actually really like the anaconda, but I think that is what makes the conda morph so great. There is so much variability. I like reduced patterned ones, but I also love the ones where it really looks like their paint job got all smudged (like this girl). But to be honest, I was attracted most by her and her sister's great red coloration. And of course she isn't as nice as Mr. Bumgardner's He originated the morph and I am constantly blown away by what he throws up onto his website.

I agree about the Red Albinos. I need to add one of those to my collection. I also love the white/cream phase hogs and hope to add one of those eventually also.

Ok, now you are just making me jealous.. Lol.. I'd love to see some of those hogs in person. I love the striped anacondas I've seen in his pictures and the ones with the blurry bands. The blonde superconda made me drool. Seriously,I drooled. Anacondas are like the piebald bp of hognoses.. Lol.. They are always different but super sweet. I can't wait to get all my hogs up to size. I have big plans for my first season.

It's all about what you breed them to. Every anaconda that came from my het. albino female looked like the girl you have. Every anaconda from one of my normals (to the same male) had crazy reduced patterns, stripes, reverse stripes, spider-like patterns, etc. And my breeder anaconda was 100% normal looking - he had the exact pattern of the original anaconda.

That just makes the prospect of breeding them all the more exciting. I really can't wait to see what my condas will produce. Was there anything out of the ordinary about your normal female? Or is it really just random the patterning you will get from anaconda offspring?

I'm still drooling over that axanthic you picked up. Though, now I wonder about an axanthic anaconda.

if i were you ide breed that super conda to a conda and get condas, pink panthers and more super condas...so many options and you could prduce some firsts. albino super conda, anrey super conda, ect so cool good luck...

She is a bit different looking than a typical hog, but I've seen tons of normals just like her. She looks like what is referred to as a "blonde" phase.

I'd say the pattern isn't random within a clutch, but varies wildly between them. I double clutched both my blonde normal and my het. albino. Both clutches from the blonde had crazy patterns, and both from the het. had classic and "heavy" patterns (like your female). I'm betting that if I bred one of my crazy looking anacondas to the het., I'd end up with a mix of crazy and classic patterns.

He won't be getting any panthers unless they're both het. for pink pastel. Albino supers have also been produced a few times already (Brent hatched one - possibly the first).

Already done. Check out Brent Bumgardner's site.
