    I knew I wanted to pick up a few more colubrids, but now the pressure is on! Those things look awesome.

    They do eat multiple animals at a time, but I generally give them fresh killed since I raise mice. They'll all take f/t or live too. I've got 2 girls due to lay in the next few days that should produce inkdrops. If I get some this year I'll put up pictures for sure.
    I may not be very smart, but what if I am?

    Not really a fan of colubrids, but the ink drops are pretty cool. Like someone said, they remind me of saddles on a boa.

    How do the morphs work? Are "phases" proven morphs? And are they mostly recessive like corns?

    I'm thinking it's a lot like ball pythons. Some of it is genetic, some of it is lineage. I will hopefully have a bunch of good eggs this year. I usually get 2 or 3, but this year I'm hoping for more. I don't know much more than that about them. I know the parents and grandparents for a couple of generations, but I do this for fun so I don't have any real records. I just pair whoever I'd like to see the offspring of and hope for the best until I get something like this. I've got over 20 years into these guys, but not with this pattern as a goal. I just like CalKings.

    Wow that ink drop is awesome and I like how purple the ruby eyed albino is.
    I'm not sure I'll get more colubrids, but if I did that would be on my list. I'll look forward to seeing your future breeding endeavours.

    Those are fantastic Wes, I've got a few cal kings myself and I really like them. Do you do any Florida kings? I've been seeing a few interesting morphs of those popping up lately.

    I bred Florida Kings back before there were any morphs, but haven't worked with them in years. There are some really neat morphs out there though and they get a lot bigger than the CalKings.
