The story behind the Orange Dream morph.

[OzzyBoids]

Here's the full story behind the Orange Dream... this mutation started out with a captive hatched female that I obtained in 2002 from my friend Ian Gniazdowski. This female had that banded look and I took her for nothing more than a cool normal at the time. I raised her up and over time I noticed that she was very different and loaded with Orange coloration. Her sides had the look of a Pastel with a lot of Orange Color especially around the tail. As she grew I suspected more and more that she was Genetic and not your typical banded animal. An old friend of mine that used to breed balls and boas stopped over my house one day and we were looking at and talking about Ball morphs. I showed him this cool Orange female and jokingly told him she would make me a million bucks and he replied, "keep dreaming." From that day on I called her the "Orange Dream."

In 2004 I bred her to a Het Albino male and she laid 4 eggs... they hatched and I produced the first two Orange Dreams, a pair to boot! They looked just like Mom and I knew I had a dominant gene and began praying that there would be a Super form. Since then I have gotten two clutches of OD to OD, both small and after having a few eggs go bad I hatched a total of 7 eggs with no Super.

Here's a picture of the original female:


Since producing this mutation I have made the following combos...
