Re: Codom Morph Needs A Name
Well you were right, it does exist. I however know nothing of it other than this snake which is a combo. It is a very cool snake and definately a distinguishable morph in my eyes, which makes copper for this snake an unsuitable name. Both are great morphs though, which I'm sure we can all agree on! ~Caylan.S.~

Re: Codom Morph Needs A Name
I'd look into doing a few more breedings to make sure those supers really are super. It's not unheard of to miss the 1-in-4 odds of producing a super in a 6-7 egg clutch. Those "supers" might just be nice black pastels. I would test breed them a little more, and see what they do when put to a black pastel.

Re: Codom Morph Needs A Name
Thanks for all the comments everyone.
There have been three supers produced so far so I'm not sure why you'd say the one shown in the photos isn't a super? We also produced a couple crosses but they weren't anything jaw dropping. We do have plans to breed them into other morphs but I am going to be selling a couple and wanted a name for them.
The whole story is in the link at the bottom of my first post.

I do like the looks of it!!  If it were me, I would do a little more breeding -- at least a combo. I certainly know how exciting it is to work with something new.
I have no less than 5 animals that I have proven dominant and/or have produced combos from that have not been formally named, have not been made public, and have not been offered for sale -- because I am not sure what they are and am waiting to breed for the super. As difficult as it is, I really do believe it is best to be conservative and measured when proving new morphs.
Nice project and best of luck.
