Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Anery turning blue
One of my anery's came into the yellow side-color on his front half a couple sheds ago, but with his last shed is noticably blue-tinged on his back half. He is just a regular brown and gray corn, Anerythristic(A) male w/o any hets that I knew of when I bought him.
I think read somewhere that Dilute(?) is responsible for this coloration. Is it possible he carries that gene or has some het? I haven't seen this in anybody's Anery's before, just wondering if he might be something special.

I've got an anery mot like that. Susan, the mod on CS.com has a line that she calls blued steel motleys. I've heard that dilute is a gene, but i've also heard that it's a selectively bred phase, too.

I know, "Show Me"... I'll get a pic tonight and have it up tomorrow. I couldn't take pix yesterday; he's pretty excitable as feeding day gets near (fed earlier today.)
I was assured that he is result of AneryA x AneryA and has no hets, but no records were kept this long of the parents of the clutch. The snake was #CS204-06 hatched June 6, '06 from HGH if anyone has an Anery from that period.

Paul ...I'm not sure what records your looking for????
Your email asked "Hoping you keep records on clutches you have produced in the past."
I only keep hatchling (hatch dates and feeding) records for about 2 weeks after they are sold, and they are available upon request from my customers.
As I explained to you in our emails, the offspring you purchased from me is the result of breeding Anery A to Anery A (parents were not het for anything).
Yellowing is normal in anerys. I still have those adults and they have only produced anerys since I have been breeding them.
I know that every corn owner hopes they have something "special" or "different" ...I have sold many anerys from this pairing and you are the first
to notify me of having something "different".

@Jim, I thought perhaps one or both parents might be registered for the ACR, or you could show me a pic of either...
The yellow is commonplace, not concerned w/ that...
The bluing is not unlike what you would see in "preshed bluing", showed up with his last shed, Nov 5.
The first pic is Jim's taken in May, at 11mos old as advertised on HGH's site when I bought him. At that time, his background color was more a silvery gray.
The second is mine after 3 sheds and 18mos old, now appearing as bluish gray background from midpoint back. Surrounding the dorsal saddles is a thin border of light silver.
I'll take another after his next shed which should be in about 3 wks. To see the snake in person would show people what I am talking about if not apparent in the pic. I hope to show him to some people at the next show I go to in Cleveland, probably in Spring.
