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.

Extreme Hypo Honduran genectics
Can anyone with at least a few years experience breeding extreme hypo honduran milks, that understands this line of hypo's genetics and probable breeding outcomes answer some questions please?
I'm a long time colubrid breeder and understand genetics but am new to producing extreme's. I produced 2 clutches this year for the the first time pairing what I was told a male extreme x a female extreme. I know there is variation in hypo's and extremes but confused in how they should be represented when selling low expression ones.
I attached a photo of a hatchling extreme male and sibling female to show the variation I produced. The male male is pictured first. The parents are almost identical in coloration with the male being the lighter of the pair. Should the female be sold as extreme or het for extreme, from extreme line? I have looked at everything I could find for sale and there seems to be no set standards.
Thanks for reading and responding in advance, I don't want to miss-represent them when I put them up for sale.

That male is more of an ultra light hypo. It might lighten up a bit as it matures and look like an extreme hypo as an adult. That female is just a nice, clean normal hypo. Breeding top shelf extreme hypo requires the very lightest extreme hypo adults. One of the issues I found was finding extreme hypo females. They are very hard to find and produce. Without top shelf breeder females you won’t be producing very many if any extreme hypos.Unfortunately most people selling extremes use it a marketing term to make their animals sound more valuable. There is no such thing as het extreme’s. I would just say that they are from extreme hypo bloodlines.

Thanks,
Even in your response I have gotten differing feedback. I decided to go with the opinion of Aaron Bayer. He thought the male was an extreme while the female was a hypo from extreme line.
