thanks mate. sorry with 2 kids running around the house and myself, i didn't read the whole thread. my bad!Yeah Greg that's what Larks is working on with these.
I asked this earlier but no one answered. How would one know the difference between axanthics like these and something that had just been line bred like B&W Jungles?

i guess b + w diamonds also go into the equation for your question right?
I also have a fully striped sib from this clutch with eggs in the incubator this season, seems like so many years ago these greys first appeared in Steve's incubator, lol. Nice work with proving it out larks, and for giving Steve the credit for first producing them rather than pinning your own name on it, which so many would be quick to do. Kudos.
i understand that is what makes it a snow, but just wondering if future breeding can provide more variety, say a snow to snow would give you X, Y and Z.a snow exhibits both axanthic and albino traits (that IS what makes it a "snow")
thanks for that.Snow bred to normal , the offspring will be double hets for snow.
Snow bred albino , all offspring will be albinos het for axanthic .
Snow bred to snow ,all offspring will be all snows .
But its possible there will be slight variation in the snows. It happens in other snow morphs IE ball pythons.
There can be slight variations in the amount of yellow reduction from the axanthic genetics thus giving slight variations in the snow morphs.
cheers Roger
I reckon these would be nice paired up with some albino Darwins...I know that would be crossing subspecies which is frowned upon in some circles, but the resulting combination of both axanthic and albino genes would create an albino without any yellow colouring, so basically either pure white or a white/pinkish/flesh coloured scales.
The "guy in South Australia" is the one who started this threadThere is a pair of pure axanthic darwins hatchlings and poss hets that were produced this year and a guy in south Australia has a single adult so there will be pure snow darwins getting around soon as well
