How about psychic predictions for the 2006 ball python season?

I still have no idea what I will be producing this year. The list of possibilities is pretty long: albino, het albino, hypo, het hypo, pastel, super pastel, pastel het hypo, pastel het pied, het pied, granite, pied spot/het pied spot/normals, spider, yellow belly, two tone, etc... Who knows.

This year will be a big one though. Some morphs I think we will see this year: pied spider, hypo pied, true ghost (anery/axanthic x hypo), genetic stripe pastel, hypo cinnamon pastel, hypo super cinnamon pastel, cinnamon pinstripes and what else? I can't think of anything right now but I am pretty sure this year will bring us at least a dozen new animals and possibly many more. Any thoughts?
 
Here's my prediction of what I'll produce this year: A few het. albinos and a bunch of normals. :raspberry

Wow a pied spider. Now that animal will be a stunner.
 
Evan,
I think we will all be in for a few surprises, it will definitely be an exciting year.
Personally I already have Albino X Het. Albino eggs in the incubator :) But I'm also looking to produce: Hypo, Pastel Hypo, Spider, Bumblebee, yellow Belly, Pastel, Het. Hypo, normal, and of course the Albino and het. Albino in mid March, and maybe a surprise or two.. you never know?

mm... anything with a pied in it sounds good to me! i'm hoping for some black/dark colored malanin and pied combos, maybe a black pastel and a pied, but is suspest it'll takelonger than this season to make them... :(
 
In 2-3 years the super cinnamon pastel pied will happen and in theory that should be a black and white ball with no pattern. That will really be amazing. We should also see albino pieds this year but because of how amazing RDR's lavender albino pieds are they will not be as cool as they would have been if they had hit first. I would think albino super cinnamons are a year or two off as well. That may be an interesting animal. Possibly a bright orange albino due to how intense the dark pigment in the super cinnamon is.
 
I don't know why nobody hit the albino pied. People have been producing double hets for several years now. I guess it was just not good luck for them. Over time I think you will see too that the lavender albino pieds will be neat as adults where as the albino pieds will probably be pretty bland as they will lose the hatchling contrast.

There should be some more new clown based morphs coming down the pike soon as well. I would suspect pinstripe clown, spider clown, platinum clown and others.
 
Anything that hasn't been seen yet will surely be something awesome... I'm looking forward to seeing it all!
 
I am dieing to see the true ghosts... Why the heck havent they been produced yet? Im sure there've been several dhxdh breedings by now.. I also have heard about the idea of a super cinny pied. Some guy was selling a pair of super cinny het pieds on KS not terribly long ago...
 
I would really like to see the calico bred into pinstripe and pastel. That would a good start. Pied calicos would be amazing. There should also be some African stuff people have in the works that should either prove out or not this year.
 
I think we are still in for some awesome morphs that haven't been presented to the public as of yet. Still waiting to see what is going on with the Viper ball. Can't wait for this season and my prediction is it is going to exceed last year in terms of awesome NEW morphs and awesome new combos.
 
Yeah, the viper ball has to be something genetic. RDR always has surprises.. The striped albino, lav pied, and those killer super phantoms...
 
I really don't think the albino mojave will be very impressive because the base pigment is not very dark. It will just look like an albino. I think it will end up in the same category as the hypo and pastel albinos. They just did not show both traits. I do believe RDR is also working towards striped platinums. Mark and Kim Bell are heading towards a bunch of new Butter combo morphs and some genetic stripe combos as well.
 
So we have the first new snake to talk about now! Mark and Kim Bell hatched out 2 hot little baby genetic striped pastels!

Now how about pied clowns??? They would rock.
