    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

What are the odds of reproducing...

I have 6 eggs ready to hatch in a week or so, from the same adults that produced this snake last year.

Good luck, David.
While that is an awesome snake (one that I've drooled over at least a few times), I'm not sure if I would be wanting to reproduce it exactly....or wanting to see if the look is varied.
 
Harald, are you saying that if she was yours, you would want her to stay kind of a one of a kind animal?

I think the amount of white on a Pied is random, and think the same is probably true of the amount of yellow on a Black Eyed Lucy. The only wild cards are, the male was a Mojave and a Sulfur, so could the Mojave have something to do with the odd appearance of this female, or, is there a hidden gene in the original Sulfur female.
 
Unfortunately I dont think the odds are good of producing something that stunning again, but I am pulling for you. Best of luck Dave

Well, not exactly...I was saying I'd be torn between wanting another just like her, and hoping for some interesting variation
 
I know that this was not a large enough control group to scientificly state as a fact, the odds of you reproducing such an amazing animal...

However, my parents had several other children that are not nearly as stunning as I am.

I hope that you do better on the odds then they did.
