 My boys waste no time

Well last night I wanted to start pairing a few of my snakes. I come home to this today.





I tried my yellow belly too a normal female. He is around 500 grams , I don’t think he has figured it out.
I also plan on putting my cinnamon in with a few girls too.

I would like to know you toughts on that I have a 100% clown male from TSK. Would you back him up with different male. I want some female possible het clowns.

Not unless you have another 100% het clown male, no - I wouldn’t back him up with anything. You’d have no way of knowing for sure who fathered the normal appearing babies, since you can have more than one father sire a clutch. Also, you can have a co-dom or dom pairing result in all normals (one of my pastel clutches had no pastels this past season).

Congrats on the lock... looks like some nice offspring can come from that pairing.

I agree with Robin, I used a co-dom and a het recessive in each pairing this season, and when the season was over I really wished I hadn’t. I have a bunch of holdback girls, that I may very well find out in 3 years are simply normals thrown by my pastel and not my het orange.

This season I am only pairing my het recessives (blue hypo, pied, and orange hypo) with one female and hoping for the best.
