this species Bairdi? LOL. You can't tell how they are going to look regarding color and pattern/stripes. How does the breeder hold back a killer one? The worst looking hatchling could turn out to be the best. Available adult breeders is limited. Why is that anyway? Most adults become available when a collection is being sold or made available. The difficult thing on breeding these to get a trait is the one with the brightest and most distinct stripes may be capable of producing hatchlings that will grow to have very faint stripes. If I see an adult or raise an offspring that has that faint stripe you're looking for Shaky it will be reserved for you if you still are looking for one. Good luck
:If there's any judgement to be made from regarding the "hypo" bairdi, then I'd say that a cross would not be nearly as metallic as I'd like. Less grey, basically.
:I could be completely wrong, of course. Maybe that cross is the way to go in the long run, and line breeding from there.
:We'll see. I love the idea. maybe I'll hold back all of my 1st clutch just to see.
:The big problem is that you really cant tell until at least a year has gone by.
:You'd have to buy a non-striped adult to be sure, and I've seen precious few adults for sale.
