    Question Creating new Morph

    Hello,

    I recently just purchased an Animal Plastics enclosure, and soon I am going to buy a White Diamond female (RussoxRusso). Later this year, I'd like to get another russo-combo male to breed. I noticed on some genetic wizards, combos such as White Diamond x (PastelxRusso) do not yet have any specific morph names for their offspring; the results just read "Pastel, Russo Luestic." Does this mean that this morph has not been made yet (or at least made public)?

    Is it feasible that by breeding a White Diamond with another russox(gene) that I could create a morph that has not yet been seen?

    I hope this make sense.

    Thanks!

    The site isn't always up to date (Some people don't submit pictures, and it takes a bit of time for pictures to be added), and not everyone comes up with a separate name for genetic combos. I'm sure there's still more to be done with Russos, since it's less popular than mojaves, but I'd put money on the pastel white diamond having already been made.

    With a white snake you won't be able to tell what else is at play.

    not entirely true. some BEL/white snakes exhibit their patterns under a black light only.

    I wonder about the market value of a snake that only shows more pattern under a black light. Would you be able to make more money than any other white snake? If you are concerned about making a new morph your efforts may be better applied somewhere else.

    Only with certain patterns.
    You would still only prove pastel when breeding.

    The only advantage, I could see, is if it's for breeding purposes. For example, a pastel bel has more genes to pass on to their offspring. I realize some patterns show under a black light, but nobody shops morphs based on what they look like under a blacklight.

    I'm sorry to say this but coming from ME the guy this forum doesn't like, you think that might be a new morph but guess what, it's out there somewhere...

    Just to prove you right........ If the Citrine is out there I would bet there are some Diamonds with a little hidden extra inside.

    Thanks for the responses so far!

    Hmmmm, yeah. I saw the Citrine a few days ago.

    Any suggestions about what Russo combos you guys have not seen yet? Or combos you think might turn out with an interesting design?

    Also, any links to the BPs that look different under black light? I haven't heard of that before.
