    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....

I was going to sell this girl but now that decision depends on what I hatch from her this year. Her background is unknown as I got her from someone local who didn't know much about reptiles. She was so unique that I had to snatch her up. It's been over a year that she's been with me and I'm now impatiently awaiting her first clutch. I have the hope that she may prove genetic. Of course, I was excited about a possible genetic BB or even het red, but now I'm just jealous of Ralph Davis' Blackheads! Lol!

Anyway.. Here is this pretty girl :)

The first few are shortly after I first got her.. She was thin and looked to be only a year old.. After seeing how fast she grew once she was being fed properly it became obvious she was not a yearling.

It wouldn't surprise me if she proved genetic, she's gorgeous.
I have a black male at a friends house that is pretty similar to her, hopefully she throws you some black back co-doms.
 
Very cool! I hope she proves out for you. What is your BEL male that you are breeding her to? We have a blackback butter male that should prove out this year. Really hoping to get some blackbacks too! I'll cross my fingers for ya!
 
Keeping my fingers crossed for you! I loooooove blackbacks, they are just wicked looking no matter what crossed they are bred into, and make some morphs look SO much better.
 
I agree the Black Backs are very interrsting Very nice pick up Monica without a doubt.
I not to far back picked up a very nice Black Back that came from a proven line of Black Backs and she should go later this year ( Fingers Crossed ) although I havent really decided whom to put her with I was thinking of holding out and placing her with an outstanding male mojave I recently picked up choices & choices
 
Thanks for the compliments :) That leucy is a lesser x Russo but I also bred her to a cinnamon. I figure these would be the best combos if she is genetic. I'm expecting her to lay soon!
